Salesforce Refresh Failure

[steelanalytics]

Hi everyone, 

I've had a couple of reports using the Salesforce Objects connector, and starting last week my reports are no longer refreshing. I get this error: "The column 'LastTransferDate' of the table wasn't found. Table: Lead." It doesn't matter what the column name is, even if I remove that column I'll get the same error with another column and/or table. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi @steelanalytics were you able to find a solution? I've used the Salesforce connector but I had some issues with my connection. As a workaround, maybe you can try to test your connection with a 3rd party connector. I've tried windsor.ai, supermetrics and funnel.io. I stayed with windsor because it is much cheaper so just to let you know other options. In case you wonder, to make the connection first search for the Salesforce connector in the data sources list:

After that, just grant access to your Salesforce account using your credentials, then on preview and destination page you will see a preview of your Salesforce fields:

There just select the fields you need. It is also compatible with custom fields and custom objects, so you'll be able to export them through windsor.  Finally, just select PBI as your data destination and finally just copy and paste the url on PBI --> Get Data --> Web --> Paste the url.
