Salesforce Trigger - Events

Learn more about the Salesforce Trigger and how to use it in the Digibee Integration Platform.

Salesforce Trigger - Events allows you to capture specific events that occur in Salesforce.

The trigger is activated by events that occur in the Salesforce environment, such as creating, updating, or deleting records.

When one of these events occurs, the trigger can perform certain actions, such as sending notifications, updating related records, and executing custom business processes. The use of triggers is recommended starting with version 56.0 of the Salesforce APIs.

Parameters

Take a look at the configuration parameters of the trigger. Parameters supported by Double Braces expressions are marked with (DB).

Parameter	Description	Default value	Data type
replayPreset	Determines how the system manages the recovery of lost events or subscription initialization. You can choose between LATEST or EARLIEST to meet your specific event processing needs.	LATEST	ReplayPreset

replayPreset

The replayPreset parameter determines how events are handled when a Subscription API is set up or when an event is lost due to connection issues or other temporary issues.

You can select the following options

• LATEST: When a new subscription is set up or an event is missed, the system starts sending events from the most recent event available in the Salesforce topic. This ensures that you only receive events that occurred after your subscription was set up or after the last event you received.

• EARLIEST: When a new subscription is established or an event is missed, the system starts sending events from the oldest available event in the Salesforce topic. This ensures that you receive all events that have occurred since the beginning of the event history on the topic, including events that occurred before the subscription was established.

This is an example of the return of a Contact event:
