To begin, log in to your Salesforce account and navigate to the "Data Export" tool under Setup. Choose the specific objects and fields you want to export. Select a suitable format, such as CSV, for the export. Initiate the export process and download the data to your local machine once it's ready.
Once you have your Salesforce data in CSV format, review and clean the data as needed. Make sure that the data is consistent and free of errors. You may need to use a spreadsheet tool like Excel or Google Sheets to remove unnecessary columns and rows and to ensure all dates, numbers, and text fields are in the correct format.
Before importing data into Firebolt, define the schema that will accommodate the Salesforce data. This involves setting up tables and fields in Firebolt to match the structure and data types of the Salesforce data. Use the Firebolt management console to create tables with appropriate data types for each column.
Use a tool like Python, SQL, or a spreadsheet application to transform your CSV data so it matches the Firebolt schema. This might involve renaming columns, changing data formats, or splitting/merging fields. Ensure that the transformed data is saved in a format compatible with Firebolt, typically CSV.
Log into your Firebolt account and navigate to the data upload section. Use Firebolt�s web interface or command-line tools to upload the transformed CSV files into the previously created tables. Follow the prompts to specify delimiters and other settings that match your CSV file format.
After uploading, verify that the data in Firebolt matches the data exported from Salesforce. Run SQL queries to check row counts, spot-check data in key fields, and ensure that all records have been imported correctly. This step is crucial to ensure that no data is lost or corrupted during the transfer.
Once data integrity is confirmed, optimize the performance of your Firebolt database by creating appropriate indexes and setting up any necessary partitioning. This will improve query performance and ensure efficient data retrieval. Use Firebolt�s optimization tools and documentation to guide this process.
By following these steps, you will successfully move data from Salesforce to Firebolt without relying on third-party connectors.
FAQs
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.

What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
