Glad you liked it
Thanks for the walkthrough. A fun additional tip is that you can retrigger Lead Assignment Rules if you add the Assignment ID into the settings of Data Loader when going to update records. This has been one of my favorite benefits of Data Loader! I use it exclusively over the other native Salesforce tools.
Thank You for the tip!

Hello , you are doing very good job..but may you create videos for development part...??? I think everyone wants to learn that..
Hi Shrey,
We have a custom object for the employees in our company. Currently there are 71 records in this object. There is a field called Employee ID with data type as Auto Number.
I have once added new records to this object using Data Import Wizard from CSV file and it all well went. Even Auto Employee ID was generated for the new records too. We have two new employees and about three of the exisiting records require updates of address change. I have all the 73 records on the CSV file (71 old records and 02 new ones). I select Add new and update option in the wizard. Though the wizard finishes, the import request results in fail and neither the new records get created nor the updates are done.
Please advise. I would perfer to do the import of Data with Data Import Wizard versus Data Loader.
Thanks mate.
Great explanation 👍
Thanks!
Thank you very much for video.
Request you to make a video on APIs.
API video is in the lineup Ramakant, will soon create on that.

I was not planning to create this one but on your request I did it. Hope you liked it.
Salesforce Hulk yes I know thanks a lot....
Hi, I have an issue and was hoping you can shed some light on it. I have accounts in Sales Force that I need to update using the Data loader. I can't seem to set the parent child relationship of these accounts. They all uploaded as Parent. Do I create a separate column for the Parent account? Thanks
Thanks for this
My pleasure!
Me and my friends downloaded all your videos and we are learning really well.thanks for the help.also make Assignments and teach us Development part also..
Glad to hear that Hussain. Working on assignments and development part. Will upload them very soon.
Hi, thank you for this wonderful video. You are doing an amazing job! Quick question, can I expose data loader to a customer community to allow customers to import contacts? Any chance you could make a video of the same?
If you could, I really don't think you would want to. Opening that up to external users and giving them the power to delete and not just add, not to mention you wouldn't be able to control if they made mistakes. Sounds like a potential nightmare.
How can I export group members with dataloader? As far as I know, it's a table based on ID's so how would it map it from the origin org to the target org? I've seen on the internet that dataloader is the way to export public groups and its members (in my cases these are countries groups so there's also nesting)

Hi Shrey,
Whenever we need to UPDATE in Data loader, we should first export the data locally and then do the changes and then only we can import the updated data into Salesforce right?
And i Want to know what UPDATE actually means.
- Doing changes in the existing fields of a record is termed as update
(and)
- Any new record addition is also termed as update?
yes because to update a record we need it's Id
What do you do with the error file? Also, after you fix all of the errors in your input file, do you start from the beginning and upload everything again, or only the records that failed?
Hi Ellen,
you can use upsert using ID filed or use insert just for failed records.
Can we schedule exports from Salesforce to a particular directory ? In your demo I primarily saw manual triggers - but say we want a scheduled run for an export on daily basis?
Yes , with the help of Schedule exports and frequency can be set accordingly i.e. monthly , weekly, daily.

What's the difference between data loader and import wizard?
Data Import Wizard - Salesforce provides an in-built Data Import wizard that is accessible through the Setup menu and can help you to import accounts, campaign members, person accounts, leads, custom objects, and contacts. This wizard is a step-by-step process that can take data to your desired location and displays error messages to change the potential duplicates of records.
It provides an easy interface and self-explanatory wizard to load the data into Salesforce. You can perform import operation from this wizard but delete and insert operations cannot be performed through this wizard. Data import wizard doesn’t allow to load the duplicate records and all fields can be individually mapped by this wizard within Salesforce.
Data Loader - Data Loader is the most efficient tool that is used to move data rapidly into the platform. The tool provided by Salesforce helps perform insert, update and delete operations on Salesforce records. It enables you to interact with your data within Salesforce across all objects.
Data loader can help in various ways such as:
Inserting data from one system to another upon the initial implementation of Salesforce
Updating bulk records with new data
Deleting bulk records that aren’t required anymore
Exporting data to other systems
Create a backup of previous data
In the process of data importing, Data loader reads, extracts, and loads data from Comma separated value (CSV) files or from database connections. While in the process of data exporting, the output is CSV files.
We can use Data loader in these two ways:
Command line
User Interface

What is the different between..update and upsert ...?
The UPDATE option keeps track of the records being updated in the database table.
The UPSERT option is the combination of ‘Update’ and ‘Insert’ which means that it will check for the records that are inserted or updated.

How to load picklist values using data loader??
When you load values in picklist with Data Loader, you can load picklist values that do not exist in the Salesforce organization. This can create data integrity issues. To avoid this, edit the picklist field to enable the feature "Restrict picklist to the values defined in the value set."
I can't see data loader option in my Salesforce org, what to do?
Same here. I dont have that option! Please help
This can be an edition limitation!
Why showing Time out error while extracting data
There can be many reasons. What's the database you're connecting to create the extract? How long has the extract been running before it's timing out? How much data are you loading? If there is a certain time limit set on queries to run on the database, then contact your DBA.

How to send images through data loader??
The Data Loader can be used to import images associated with rich text fields in your organization.
To insert rich text field content
1. To get started, we need to prepare an import file to upload the images into Documents. Please review Mass import Documents into Salesforce .
2. Next we need to take the success file from the document import and use it to construct the HTML code for the rich text field.
3. Add a new column to the beginning of the success file with a column header called link. You can use the following links as examples:
For externally available images paste and copy this link all the way down the file:
For internally available images paste and copy this link all the way down the file:
4. Find and Replace naX with the instance of the server the images are on and find and replace {OrgID} with the ID of the Organization. Please review Find your Salesforce Organization ID for more.
5. Insert a new column into excel in front of the link column with the header matching the name of the Rich Text field and ensure the column labeled 'ID' is column C.
6. Use the following formula to populate the ImageID: =SUBSTITUTE(B2,"{ImageID}",C2)
7. Right click on column a and copy. Right click again and then paste special - Values. Save the file.
8. Open the Data loader (Login to Data Loader).
9. Select the function as Upsert.
10. Select the Object by checking "Show all objects".
11. Select the object the rich text field is on| Map the ID of the records and the rich text field column| Select the directory where your success and error files will be saved and then click Finish and OK.
12. The rich text fields will be populated with your images in Salesforce.
Hii bro. My name is Sai pavan. I completed my btech (fresher) and I am going to Salesforce couching in Hyderabad (admin part completed and in development part present i am learning visual fore. I looking a job as fresher in different websites but as fresher there is no vacancies. They are asking experience candidates. I can u please help me for looking job as fresher in Hyderabad.
I totally understand the problems you were facing Sai. In fact, this is the problem of the whole market that they all want experienced candidates without giving a job to fresher. I can't understand how is that even possible. But currently what you should do to get a job is to showcase your talent with a certification. Certification will definitely help you to get a job as a fresher and after a year of experience, it will be very easy for you to get better jobs anywhere.
Salesforce Hulk thank you bro for reply. I thought you will not reply. I will definitely try do for certification this course. If any opportunities are there means u please forward to my mail "saipavan750@gmail.com". Once again thank you so much bro.🙂🙂
