Salesforce MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server implementation that integrates Claude with Salesforce, enabling natural language interactions with your Salesforce data and metadata. This server allows Claude to query, modify, and manage your Salesforce objects and records using everyday language.

Features

Object and Field Management: Create and modify custom objects and fields using natural language
Smart Object Search: Find Salesforce objects using partial name matches
Detailed Schema Information: Get comprehensive field and relationship details for any object
Flexible Data Queries: Query records with relationship support and complex filters
Data Manipulation: Insert, update, delete, and upsert records with ease
Cross-Object Search: Search across multiple objects using SOSL
Apex Code Management: Read, create, and update Apex classes and triggers
Intuitive Error Handling: Clear feedback with Salesforce-specific error details

Setup

Salesforce Authentication

You can connect to Salesforce using one of two authentication methods:

1. Username/Password Authentication (Default)

Set up your Salesforce credentials
Get your security token (Reset from Salesforce Settings)

2. OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials Flow

Create a Connected App in Salesforce
Enable OAuth settings and select "Client Credentials Flow"
Set appropriate scopes (typically "api" is sufficient)
Save the Client ID and Client Secret
Important: Note your instance URL (e.g., https://your-domain.my.salesforce.com) as it's required for authentication

Usage with Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

For Username/Password Authentication:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "salesforce": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@tsmztech/mcp-server-salesforce"],
      "env": {
        "SALESFORCE_CONNECTION_TYPE": "User_Password",
        "SALESFORCE_USERNAME": "your_username",
        "SALESFORCE_PASSWORD": "your_password",
        "SALESFORCE_TOKEN": "your_security_token",
        "SALESFORCE_INSTANCE_URL": "org_url"        // Optional. Default value: https://login.salesforce.com
      }
    }
  }
}

For OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials Flow:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "salesforce": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@tsmztech/mcp-server-salesforce"],
      "env": {
        "SALESFORCE_CONNECTION_TYPE": "OAuth_2.0_Client_Credentials",
        "SALESFORCE_CLIENT_ID": "your_client_id",
        "SALESFORCE_CLIENT_SECRET": "your_client_secret",
        "SALESFORCE_INSTANCE_URL": "https://your-domain.my.salesforce.com"  // REQUIRED: Must be your exact Salesforce instance URL
      }
    }
  }
}

Note: For OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials Flow, the SALESFORCE_INSTANCE_URL must be your exact Salesforce instance URL (e.g., https://your-domain.my.salesforce.com). The token endpoint will be constructed as <instance_url>/services/oauth2/token.
