Connect to Salesforce from Any Platform
The DataConnectors library is built against .NET Standard from the ground up so it's supported across Windows, Mac, Linux, and mobile device platforms.
Visual Studio Integration
With full Visual Studio 2019 and Visual Studio 2022 integration, you can quickly and easily connect to your Salesforce data sources. Connect to Salesforce through the Server Explorer, without writing a single line of C# or VB.NET code, and then drag tables on the dataset designer, and connect data-aware controls like grids, charts and report designers.
Data Features
ADO.NET and Entity Framework Core Support
Connect to Salesforce data using standard ADO.NET objects and Entity Framework Core. The data connector uses ADO.NET objects to make it easy to set up a connection.
OAuth Authentication Support
The Salesforce data connector library supports the industry standard authentication protocol, OAuth 2.0, to help you protect your data through a secure connection.
SQL and LINQ Query Support
Query against Salesforce data using most standard SQL syntax including joins queries, functions, and summaries. It also has in-built support for LINQ queries for native .NET data queries.
Batch CRUD Operations
The data connectors support CRUD operations such as inserting, updating and deleting data through Command and DataAdapter objects. You can further optimize network performance by performing batch updates.
Fast Cache with Incremental Updates
With built-in caching you can improve performance by using a local cache database for repeat operations. It also supports incremental updates so that only new or modified records get synced to the cache.
Scaffolding
With scaffolding support, the Salesforce data connector library can generate model classes and a database context for Entity Framework Core. The scaffolding command can be run from Visual Studio.
Integrate Salesforce Data in .NET
While the Salesforce .NET C# data connector focuses primarily on connecting and querying, you can use it alongside other .NET Standard and .NET Framework components to do much more.
- Integrate Salesforce data with DataCollection to provide filtering, grouping, and data virtualization to your data-aware controls
- Import data from Salesforce to DataEngine to analyze massive amounts of data in fractions of a second
- Connect Salesforce data to pivot grids & charts, such as FlexPivot, to analyze data visually
- Create business reports using FlexReport and Salesforce for essential business tasks
