Alteryx Server bad argument type for built-in operation on Salesforce Input Connector

Question

Hi,

I am using the Salesforce input connector to extract data from our salesforce environment. The workflow runs fine on my desktop in designer but when I publish to the gallery, I get this error "bad argument type for built-in operation". How do I resolve this?

Hi @Pablo123,

Please cross-check the Salesforce connector version on your local Designer and the Alteryx Server. If both versions are the same, please try the following resolution:

* Open the affected Server workflows in Alteryx Designer.

* Review the existing Salesforce Connector tool configuration(s) and make a note of the current settings.

* Remove the Salesforce Connector tool(s), then add them back to the workflow and reconfigure them using the same settings as before.

* Save the updated workflow back to the Server.

Synchronizing the version between Designer and Gallery is difficult. You should double-check that the Salesforce connector version and the Python environment on the server match your personal computer, as this error is often caused by library conflicts.

Hi @Pablo123 ,

Are you using DCM to save your credentials? If so, please synchronize your Designer with your Server`s DCM.
