simpler-sf

Extending the low-level Salesforce API client Simple Salesforce to support exports in Pandas, and other features.

Usage

Install

pip install simpler-sf

Import

import simpler_sf
simpler_sf.simple_salesforce()
import simple_salesforce

Query

Simpler-sf adds the smart_query() method to the simple_salesforce.Salesforce class.

The advantages over the existing methods are:

  • Un-nesting of results for relationship queries (aka the infamous 'attributes' field) (not just for one level)
  • Query results in pd.Dataframe format
  • No limit on the number of output rows as in simple_salesforce.Salesforce.query() and at the same time...
  • No need to use a different class for each Salesforce object as in sf.bulk.Account.query(query)
  • The option to filter dynamically, on large amounts of values without a limit on the number of characters

Example

sf = simple_salesforce.Salesforce(username=username, password=password, security_token=token)
df = sf.smart_query('SELECT Contact.Id, Contact.FirstName, Contact.Account.Name, Campaign.Name FROM CampaignMember')
print(df)

Output:

            Contact.Id   Contact.FirstName   Contact.Account.Name      Campaign.Name
