Data Import/Export

Manage the Flow of Customer Data

With Salesforce’s multiple methods of easily importing and exporting data, you can automatically or manually integrate data from other sources such as files, spreadsheets, or even other applications.

Import Wizards

You can import contact information using an import wizard that quickly loads data into Salesforce by helping you map the information you need to manage. You’ll quickly import leads from offline sources, such as trade shows, seminars, and direct mail, and eliminate manual data entry.

Data Replication

The Force.com platform supports data replication, which allows you to store and maintain a local, separate copy of your organization's pertinent Salesforce data for specialized uses, such as data warehousing, data mining, custom reporting, analytics, integration with other applications, and more.


Weekly Export

The weekly export process is a salesforce.com service that allows you to export your Salesforce data on a weekly basis. You can use this data for backup purposes or for data warehousing.

Custom Import/Export Processes

The Force.com Web services API allows for the import and export of all standard and custom business objects. The Force.com platform supports many different integration technologies and modes, including messaging, flat file, CSV, Web services, and SQL.
