Hi -

Does anyone know if the Appian Salesforce connectors can be executed by the system, without requiring a user to click a button on a form? Our use case requires updating Salesforce after certain DB updated are performed in Appian, which don't always correspond to a user activity.

Your comments/suggestions are appreciated.

The effort to get the REST APIs working would be significant. Our business case requires inserting, updating, and deleting data in Salesforce.
At this point, while not ideal, it may be easier for us to redesign our process and write the data before the user activity and user the connectors within a SAIL inteface in the user activity, so that we can leverage the connectors. I'm hoping that in a future Appian release these connectors would work in an expression rule. It would make them much more usable.
