Export/Import of Data Between Fullcast and Salesforce Environment
This article provides information and direction on accessing and running import and export jobs between Fullcast and Salesforce. Fullcast offers a fully automated data import and export process, that can be directly managed within the application. All aspects of the integration layer, such as specifying fields for import/export and monitoring job statuses and details, are accessible through the Export/Import tab. Users can view integration issues by reviewing error files generated during the process.
The two distinct packages facilitating data exchange between Fullcast and Salesforce:
- Standard package: The standard package includes comprehensive CRUD capabilities for both fields and entities. Users with version 2.160 and above are eligible to access the standard package and manage data within the system.

To determine the installed package version, admin users should access the Export/Import tab in settings.
