FAQ

Questions about Salesforce SOQL Query.

What does the Salesforce SOQL Query action do in Salesforce?

Runs a SOQL (Salesforce Object Query Language) statement. The power-user escape hatch for complex multi-object queries with relationships, aggregations, and filters that typed actions don't express.

What inputs does Salesforce SOQL Query require?

Required: SOQL Query. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Salesforce returns an error?

The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.

Does Salesforce SOQL Query support batch operations?

Yes. Run Salesforce SOQL Query inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Salesforce's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
