SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Setting up and managing Salesforce Data Cloud connections involves connector-specific credential formats, non-obvious CLI flags, and API quirks that are easy to get wrong. This Skill guides connection discovery, testing, creation, and schema upload so source systems are configured correctly before data streams are built. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Connector Discovery and Inspection: List available connector types, inspect configured connections by type, and browse source objects, fields, databases, and uploaded schemas. - Connection Testing and Creation: Test existing connections with correct name resolution and create new connectors from curated JSON payloads for Snowflake, Redshift, Heroku Postgres, SharePoint Unstructured, and Ingestion API sources. - Ingestion API Schema Setup: Complete the Ingestion API connector flow by uploading object schemas with connection schema-upsert after connector creation. - Use Case: A user asks to connect a Snowflake warehouse to Data Cloud. The Skill verifies plugin readiness, checks existing connections, creates the connector from the curated key-pair auth payload, and confirms the result before handing off to stream creation. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to list the existing Data Cloud connections in your org and test a specific connection by name.

Frequently Asked Questions about data360-connect

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I list existing Salesforce Data Cloud connections?▼

Run `sf data360 connection list -o <org> --connector-type <type>` to list connections. The command requires a connector type such as SalesforceDotCom, REDSHIFT, or SNOWFLAKE because there is no global list-all mode.

How do I create a Snowflake connection in Data Cloud?▼

Create a JSON payload with connectorType SNOWFLAKE using key-pair authentication, then run `sf data360 connection create -o <org> -f snowflake-connection.json`. Note that downstream stream creation for Snowflake may still require the UI.

Why does sf data360 connection test fail to find my connection?▼

Connection test may fail name resolution for non-Salesforce sources unless you pass `--connector-type` along with the connection name. Adding the flag resolves the connection correctly.

What is required to set up an Ingestion API connector in Data Cloud?▼

Create the connector with `connection create`, then upload the object schema using `connection schema-upsert` with a schema JSON file. The connector setup is incomplete until the schema has been uploaded.

When should I not use this connection skill for Data Cloud tasks?▼

Do not use it for data stream or DLO creation, which belongs to the prepare phase, or for DMO mapping and identity resolution, which belongs to the harmonize phase. It only covers connection and connector management.
