Salesforce App Scopes

  • Access and manage your data (api)

  • Perform requests on your behalf at any time (refresh_token, offline_access)


Privacy & Permissions

Pitchly uses OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code Grant to connect with Salesforce. The integration authenticates using a Salesforce user account, and all data access is governed by that user’s:

  • Object-level permissions

  • Field-level security

  • Record-sharing rules within Salesforce

To limit access (e.g., to Contacts only), the integration should be authenticated using a user who already has the appropriate permissions assigned.

We recommend creating a dedicated Salesforce user specifically for the Pitchly integration. This approach allows you to:

  • Clearly separate access for auditing purposes

  • Scope permissions without affecting other users

  • Ensure that Pitchly only accesses the intended objects and fields


Objects

Pitchly supports syncing from:

  • All standard Salesforce objects, such as:

    • Accounts, Contacts, Opportunities, etc.

  • All custom objects

Each object must be configured in a separate automation. There is no limit to how many automations can be created.


Field Types

Supported Field Types:

  • Checkbox

  • Currency (and Currency ISO field)

  • Date

  • Date/Time

  • Email

  • Lookup (Single)

  • Number

  • Percent

  • Phone

  • Picklist (Single)

  • Text

  • Text Area

  • URL

Unsupported Field Types:

  • Multi-Picklist (multi-select)

  • Text (Encrypted)

  • Time


NOTE: Salesforce does not offer a native "image" field type, and Pitchly does not support image sync via files or attachments. Image syncing is not supported in this integration.
