The Salesforce Integration screen opens.
- The user information indicates the integrated Salesforce login.
- The environment you are logged into is displayed. This can either be Production or Sandbox.
- There is an option to refresh the metadata. Titan Web will cache the Salesforce metadata; this keeps the number of API calls down. This is refreshed once a week, but you can refresh it manually using this option.
- The Turn Off Integration option will turn off all integration to Salesforce. This option can be used from time to time.
04 Types of Gets
There are two types of Gets: Records and Picklists.
Get records are simply querying information from Salesforce and pulling that information from a Salesforce object into a Titan project.
Picklists will sync values from a Salesforce pick list, for example, a type pick list on a case object, and populate the data in a Titan Project.

05 What is a Push?
A push is an action that sends data from a Titan Web project to your Salesforce Account. For example, pushing data to create an account in Salesforce.
The push is used for creating, updating, finding, or deleting the records in Salesforce. All these records are coming from Salesforce objects.
06 What are Events?
You can set event monitoring; Titan will track occurrences within Salesforce platform events.
07 The Integration Logs
Use these logs to view the results of your configured gets and pushes. For example, if you push data to create an account record in Salesforce, you can view whether this API call was successful.
