Quick Start
Run the server
The server is built on the MCP Python SDK's FastMCP API and speaks the stdio transport. Install the package, configure credentials via environment variables (see Configuration), and launch with:
salesforce-mcp
# or equivalently
python -m salesforce_mcp.serverProgrammatic usage
from salesforce_mcp import mcp
# `mcp` is a configured `FastMCP` instance with every Salesforce tool
# already registered. Run it over stdio:
if __name__ == "__main__":
mcp.run(transport="stdio")Claude Desktop Configuration

}Advanced Configuration
Multi-Org Support
Additional orgs are configured by setting prefixed environment variables.
For example, to expose a sandbox org alongside the default:
SALESFORCE_USERNAME=prod@company.com
SALESFORCE_PASSWORD=prod_password
SALESFORCE_SECURITY_TOKEN=prod_token
SALESFORCE_SANDBOX_USERNAME=sandbox@company.com.sandbox
SALESFORCE_SANDBOX_PASSWORD=sandbox_password
SALESFORCE_SANDBOX_SECURITY_TOKEN=sandbox_token
SALESFORCE_SANDBOX_DOMAIN=testEvery tool accepts an optional org argument; omitting it targets the
default org defined by SALESFORCE_DEFAULT_ORG (defaulting to "default").
Authentication classes
The salesforce_mcp.auth module exposes UsernamePasswordAuth, OAuth2Auth,
and JWTAuth for use when embedding the underlying SalesforceClient in
your own code:
from salesforce_mcp import JWTAuth, SalesforceClient
auth = JWTAuth(
client_id="your_client_id",
username="your_username",
private_key_file="path/to/private_key.pem",
sandbox=False,
)
client = SalesforceClient(auth=auth)Rate Limiting
Rate limiting is enabled by default and tuned via environment variables:
SALESFORCE_RATE_LIMIT_ENABLED=true
SALESFORCE_RATE_LIMIT_REQUESTS_PER_SECOND=10
SALESFORCE_RATE_LIMIT_BURST_SIZE=20Integration Examples
See the examples/ directory for complete integration examples:
basic_usage.py- Simple queries and CRUD operationsbulk_operations.py- Handling large data volumesgenai_integration.py- Integration with GenAI APIsmulti_org.py- Managing multiple Salesforce orgsoauth_flow.py- OAuth authentication setup
Error Handling
The server provides detailed error information:
try:
result = server.execute_tool("salesforce_query", {
"query": "SELECT InvalidField FROM Account"
})
except SalesforceError as e:
print(f"Salesforce error: {e.error_code} - {e.message}")
print(f"Fields available: {e.available_fields}")Security Best Practices
Never commit credentials - Use environment variables or secure vaults
Use OAuth when possible - More secure than username/password
Implement field-level security - Respect Salesforce permissions
Enable audit logging - Track all API operations
Use IP restrictions - Limit access to known IP ranges
