Salesforce Check Ingest Job Status Activity

The Salesforce Check Ingest Job Status activity performs a check on the jobs and retrieves their status.

General

On the General tab, you can establish a connection to the Salesforce.com server.

The following table lists the configurations on the General tab of the Salesforce Check Ingest Job Status activity:

Field Module Property? Description
Name No The name displayed as the label of the activity in the process.
Salesforce Connection Yes The path to the Salesforce shared resource.

Click the Choose/Create Default Resource icon to select a usable connection for the activity.

Wait for completion No Select the check box to wait for the completion of the job and get the job status. Recommendation for Bulk Operation with large amount of data: When a large amount of data is processed during a Bulk Operation activity (added, updated, or deleted) and Bulk Queries return a large amount of data, it might take time to process the entire request. In such a scenario, select this option and give a sufficiently large timeout value to complete the operation.
Timeout Yes The timeout value specifies the number of milliseconds an activity waits before timing out. The activity will either timeout after given milliseconds or if the Wait for completion check box is selected, it will wait for the job to be completed, whichever is earlier.

Default value: 50000 milliseconds. The activity adds a buffer of 5000 milliseconds to the given value to allow for processing time. For example, if the value is given as 50000 milliseconds then the activity will timeout after 55000 milliseconds. But the job check status poll is done only for the first 50000 milliseconds. (This does not apply for infinite timeout.)

If timeout value is not specified: The system sets the value to infinite (that is, activity times out only after all records are processed)

Note: Data type for Module property of Timeout should be Integer.
Interval Yes Specifies the time interval between each check status call. The field is editable only when you select the Wait for completion check box.
Default interval value: 1000 milliseconds
Tip: It is recommended that you choose this interval as per the submitted job for optimal API usage.
Note: Data type for Module property of Interval should be Integer.

Description

On the Description tab, you can enter a short description for the Salesforce Check Ingest Job Status activity.

Input

On the Input tab, you can specify input values for the Salesforce Check Ingest Job Status activity.

The following table lists the input elements on the Input tab of the Salesforce Check Ingest Job Status activity:

Input Items Data Type Description
CheckStatusConnection (All fields in this section are optional.)
ServerUrl String The web address of the endpoint that is used by this operation.
SessionId String The unique ID associated with this session.
ExternalSessionIdUsed Boolean Specifies whether an external session ID is used (true) or not (false).

If the value is set to true, an external session ID is filled in the sessionId field.

In this case, when the session has to be refreshed, the refreshed operation cannot be performed, and an exception is thrown.

CheckStatus
jobId String Required. The ID of the job that is queued on the Salesforce server.
timeout Integer Optional. The timeout value specifies the number of milliseconds an internal API call waits before the data returns.
waitForCompletion Boolean Optional. Specifies a boolean value to wait for the completion of all jobs.
interval Integer Optional. Specifies the time interval between each check status call.
operationType String Supported operation types are insert, upsert, update, delete, harddelete, query, and queryall.

It can be mapped from output of previous Bulk Ingest, Query, or Close Job activity.

Note: It is recommended to provide all inputs (waitForCompletion, timeout, and interval) either from the General tab or from the Input tab.

externalIdFieldname String Optional. This field contains the name of the field defined as the key indexing field in the Salesforce object.

It is used with the upsert operation.

id String Unique ID of the job. The same can be mapped to further activities such as CheckStatus, GetResult, and CloseJob.
