How Zapier works
Zapier makes it easy to integrate Firebase / Firestore with Salesforce - no code necessary. See how you can get setup in minutes.
Choose a trigger
A trigger is the event that starts your Zap—like a "New Child Object in a Firebase Realtime Database" from Firebase / Firestore.
Add your action
An action happens after the trigger—such as "Add Contact to Campaign" in Salesforce.
You’re connected!
Zapier seamlessly connects Firebase / Firestore and Salesforce, automating your workflow.
Supported triggers and actions
Zapier helps you create workflows that connect your apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and an action is an event a Zap performs.

Practical ways you can use Firebase / Firestore and Salesforce
Push Salesforce leads to Firestore for app use
When a new lead is created in Salesforce, Zapier will send the data to Cloud Firestore, making it accessible to your application or external systems. This streamlines lead management by syncing data directly to the tools your business relies on.
Business Owner
Mirror Firestore data changes in Salesforce
When a new document is added to a Cloud Firestore collection, Zapier will update or create a corresponding record in Salesforce. This keeps your databases and CRM in sync, ensuring you always work with consistent data across platforms.
Engineering
Sync new Firebase Firestore records to Salesforce
When a new record is added to Cloud Firestore, Zapier will create a corresponding record in Salesforce. This ensures your CRM is always up-to-date with the latest data from your databases, making it easier to manage relationships and workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions about Firebase / Firestore + Salesforce integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Firebase / Firestore and Salesforce
What prerequisites are needed to integrate Firebase with Salesforce?
To integrate Firebase with Salesforce, you need to have active accounts on both platforms. Additionally, you should have the necessary permissions to create and manage triggers and actions in both Firebase and Salesforce.
How can we set up a trigger in Firebase to sync data with Salesforce?
You can set up a trigger in Firebase using Cloud Functions. Once a specific event occurs in your Firestore database (like document creation, update, or deletion), the Cloud Function will be triggered. This function can then be used to call a webhook that pushes data to your Salesforce instance.
Are there any specific actions that need to be configured within Salesforce for integration?
Yes, within Salesforce you need to set up specific actions such as creating records, updating fields, or triggering workflows based on the data received from Firebase. You can use Apex triggers or Process Builder for configuring these actions.
Can we customize the data flow between Firebase and Salesforce?
Absolutely! You can customize the data mapping and transformation rules according to your business needs. Configuration options are available so you can decide which fields from your Firestore database map to which fields in Salesforce and vice versa.
What types of events in Firestore can trigger an update in Salesforce?
Events such as document creation, updates, or deletions in Firestore can trigger automated updates in Salesforce. The specific events that will trigger these updates depend on how you configure your Cloud Functions in Firebase.
Do I need coding knowledge to integrate Firebase with Salesforce?
While having some knowledge of coding would be beneficial for creating complex triggers and custom integrations using Cloud Functions and Apex code, many basic integrations can be accomplished using pre-built connectors and intuitive interfaces without extensive coding expertise.
How do we handle errors during synchronization between Firebase and Salesforce?
Error handling is crucial for smooth operation. In case of an error during the synchronization process, you should log these errors either within your Cloud Functions or use an error reporting service. Additionally, implementing retry mechanisms ensures that transient issues don't interrupt long-term data consistency.
