Arcade tools designed for LLMs to interact with Salesforce
Arcade's Salesforce toolkit lets LLMs interact with a Salesforce org to manage CRM records — accounts, contacts, leads, opportunities, tasks, and activity logs — via natural language.
Capabilities
- Identity & context: Retrieve the authenticated user's profile and org details to establish session context before acting.
- Lead lifecycle: Create leads, update fields, convert leads into Contacts, Accounts, and Opportunities, and search or filter the full lead pipeline.
- Contact & account management: Create contacts, search by name/account/title, and retrieve full account snapshots including related contacts, leads, notes, tasks, emails, calls, and events.
- Opportunity (deal) management: Create, search, update, and retrieve opportunities with enriched data — contact roles, line items, open tasks, and notes — across personal or full-org pipelines.
- Task & activity tracking: Create, list, update, and complete tasks (reminders, follow-ups); log completed calls as activities; filter tasks by due date or overdue status.
- Picklist validation: Opportunity creation validates stage, lead source, and type against the org's live picklist configuration, preventing invalid field values.
OAuth
This toolkit uses OAuth 2.0 via the Salesforce provider. See the Arcade Salesforce auth provider docs for setup details.
Secrets
-
SALESFORCE_ORG_SUBDOMAIN: The subdomain of your Salesforce org's URL. For a standard org athttps://mycompany.my.salesforce.com, the value ismycompany. Find this in your Salesforce org under Setup → My Domain. Required so the toolkit targets the correct org instance. -
SALESFORCE_MAX_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS: An integer that caps how many parallel API requests the toolkit will issue against the Salesforce API at once. Set this to respect your org's Salesforce API request limits. Tune the value based on your org's edition and concurrent-request allocation; lower values reduce the risk of hitting per-org limits under heavy load.
Configure secrets in the Arcade secrets dashboard and see the Arcade secrets guide for full setup instructions.
