⚠️ Note that the following sections are relevant only for the latest versions of the Salesforce Adapter (6.0 and later).

ℹ️ For details on migrating from 5.0 to 6.0, see the Implementation & Migration Guides > Migrating from 5.0 to 6.0 section.

ℹ️ For details on the legacy versions (3.0 and 4.0), see the Legacy Adapter section.

The Salesforce Adapter exposes a bidirectional interoperability layer bridging the gap between Salesforce Lightning and all interop-enabled apps. It can operate within the io.Connect platform (io.Connect Desktop or io.Connect Browser) or in a web browser depending on where you are using Salesforce.

The Salesforce Adapter enables Salesforce developers to execute outbound interoperability operations (such as invoking Interop methods) from Salesforce and react to inbound interoperability events (e.g., Interop method invocations by any of your interop-enabled apps). This allows sharing information and functionality between Salesforce and your apps running in io.Connect Desktop and io.Connect Browser.

The Salesforce Adapter is shipped separately and can be installed from Salesforce AppExchange or from a custom link provided directly to the client.

The following demonstrates how Salesforce can be integrated with io.Connect Desktop via the Salesforce Adapter:

The Salesforce Adapter uses semantic versioning. Backward compatibility is guaranteed within a major version and breaking changes are introduced only by incrementing the major version.

It's highly recommended to test each version change in a sandbox environment before applying it to production.

⚠️ Note that some Salesforce installers require uninstalling the currently installed package before installing a new minor version. This is an installation constraint and doesn't indicate a breaking change.

⚠️ Note that a package build can contain only some of the available modules, so you must compare the entries below against the components that are actually installed in your organization.
