Salesforce Connection

Hello,

 

How do I connect my data from salesforce to Dataflows? When I go to add table, select salesforce objects (also report), I click sign in under connection credentials and a pop up windows opens saying "Site cannot be reached" and the URL for that pop up window is "https://mycustomurl.salesforce.com/...." . This happens when when the URL is the standard production. I just need a few tables from salesforce but am running into errors.

You don't need to create one - use the existing one.

Hello, I cannot see my reports after connecting to Salesforce Reports. Any suggestions?

Possible reasons are that your organization has more reports than the Power BI preview is willing to load.  Pick any report from the list, and then replace its reportid with your own.

change your connection to use the custom URL instead of the standard one.
