Arcade tools designed for LLMs to interact with Salesforce
Arcade's Salesforce toolkit lets LLMs interact with a Salesforce org to manage the full CRM lifecycle — contacts, leads, accounts, opportunities, tasks, calls, and user context.
Capabilities
- Identity & context: Retrieve the authenticated user's profile and org info to establish session context before other operations.
- Lead & contact management: Create, search, and update leads and contacts; convert leads into Contacts, Accounts, and Opportunities in a single canonical transition.
- Opportunity & pipeline management: Create, search, update, and fetch enriched opportunity records including contact roles, line items, open tasks, and notes.
- Account intelligence: Look up accounts by ID or keyword, returning up to 10 related items each of contacts, leads, notes, calls, opportunities, tasks, emails, and events.
- Activity tracking: Create and update tasks, list your assigned tasks (with overdue filtering), and log completed phone calls as activities.
OAuth
This toolkit authenticates via OAuth 2.0 through Salesforce. See the Arcade Salesforce auth provider docs for setup instructions.
Secrets
-
SALESFORCE_ORG_SUBDOMAIN— The subdomain of your Salesforce org URL. For a standard org this is the string before.my.salesforce.com(e.g.,mycompanyformycompany.my.salesforce.com). Find it in Setup → Company Settings → My Domain in your Salesforce org. Required so the toolkit targets the correct org endpoint. -
SALESFORCE_MAX_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS— An integer cap on the number of simultaneous API requests the toolkit will make against your org. Salesforce enforces API request limits per org and edition; tune this value to stay within your org's concurrent-request governor limits. Set conservatively (e.g.,5) for Developer Edition orgs and higher for Enterprise/Unlimited.
