Hi all, I have a question regarding Secoda Sales Force integration. When we created integration we pooled all SF resources, all types. I can not remember now if there was an option to pool only specific type and I was not able to find answer in documentation. When creating connection/integration can we pick object type (sObject)? In integration setup I can not see anything that could exclude object from sync besides Preferences->Filtering, but filtering can be done only based on resource names. Is it suppose to be object name? Object type filtering not alowed? Thank you!

Hi Andrea, Thanks so much for your patience on this one! Currently, the filter in Secoda is based on the resource title. Resources can include types like Apex Class, sObject, Field, and Dashboard. We’ve explored this and found it could be possible to add filtering by type, so I’ll submit a feature improvement request to the product team and keep you posted. Out of curiosity, could you share what specific resource types you’re looking to filter out and your use case for it? That will help us better understand the need and ensure we capture it accurately for the team. Thanks again!

We are looking to pool only sObjects , only data we use in our transformations. We are not interested in reports for example. Now, when we take a look at our SF integration, we have a lot of objects that are even system object and are not of any use for us at all. Quite hard to distinguish what is needed. We can filter, of course ,by type, but in the end, we loaded something that it not useful for us at all

That makes sense Andrea! Thanks for sharing that. We'll keep you posted on the progress!
