Apologies - as my intentions are not to whine about this. However, our organization has experienced nothing but headaches with both versions 4.0 and 4.1 of the Salesforce input tool. I've been patient as this was honestly a last resort, but with Salesforce being, well, Salesforce, I feel that Alteryx should prioritize fixing the bugs in this connector that are literally stopping production for many customers. First, we found 4.1 to be such as drag on the UI (probably due to HTML GUI Set/Get Config settings, etc.) that it was absolutely unbearable to continue development on any workflow using v4.1 of the tool. It also riddles downstream tools (most commonly Selects and Joins) with the indescribably annoying "You have found a bug" errors - which seem to only be remediated via deleting, replacing, and reconfiguring.
So, we downgraded to 4.0, which significantly sped up the GUI experience, but then noticed that it prevented multi-user collaboration of workflows that use the 4.0 input due to the fact that the tool stores session info which is directly tied to a logged in user. Even when we're using a Salesforce (shared) service account for each input, the session errors exist when a different user opens the same workflow. Ideally the tool, upon instantiation (HTML GUI Set/Get Config) would detect already existing username/token/password in the tool's XML config and re-authenticate, at that point, and obtain a new session/token, correct?
Anywho, kindly asking for any progress update on a thoroughly tested new version that addresses these bugs. I'm only passionate because we do love this tool and rely it for business critical processes. It is a great tool for the most widely used CRM in world, after all!
