How to connect Pinecone and Salesforce
Create a New Scenario to Connect Pinecone and Salesforce
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Pinecone, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Pinecone or Salesforce will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Pinecone or Salesforce, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Pinecone Node
Select the Pinecone node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Pinecone, Salesforce, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Pinecone and Salesforce integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Pinecone and Salesforce (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Pinecone and Salesforce
Salesforce + Pinecone + Slack: When a new lead is created in Salesforce, the lead's information is used to create a new vector in Pinecone. Subsequently, a Slack notification is sent to the sales team informing them of the new lead and the creation of the vector.
Salesforce + Pinecone + Google Sheets: This workflow retrieves opportunity data from Salesforce, uses Pinecone to search for related information, and then logs the combined results in Google Sheets for reporting purposes.
