Salesforce Bubble Integration Tutorial

I spent a lot of time struggling to build a plugin to integrate Salesforce and bubble. That’s why I made a full tutorial to showcase how to:

  • Create Bubble Plugins
  • Integrate Third-party systems like Salesforce
  • Use Keys to authenticate with Salesforce
  • Use backend workflows to automate business logic
  • Publish Bubble Plugins

Why building a plugin when you can do everything in SF API with API connector?

More than that you are showing the auth using password auth when there’s an option to use client_credentials that is way better mostly because SF administrator could request you to change password often.

Doing complex mapping for field values.

The basic auth is done through an integration user, which is a free Salesforce license for this exact scenario. You can specify password policies per profile.

Can you give an example? For me, this can all be done with Bubble native functions

I had built the plugin in part because I needed to:

  • Check existing records based on email address
  • Convert the lead to a contact
  • Select the external id based on previous values

I am a Salesforce developer by trade, but I’m sure many of the functionality showcased in this video can be done with the API connector. After the research I did, it seemed like the path I took seemed like the best solution for the requirements.
