# Salesforce
> Salesforce is a CRM platform for sales, marketing, service, and customer data. To analyze Salesforce data in MotherDuck, use an ingestion tool that supports Salesforce as a source and MotherDuck as a destination.
## How it works with MotherDuck

The most direct documented path is `dlt`, which has a Salesforce source and a MotherDuck destination.

1. Install `dlt` with MotherDuck support.
2. Initialize a Salesforce-to-MotherDuck pipeline.
3. Configure Salesforce credentials and MotherDuck credentials in the generated `.dlt/secrets.toml`.
4. Run the generated pipeline script to load Salesforce resources into a MotherDuck dataset.

```bash
pip install "dlt[motherduck]"

mkdir salesforce_pipeline
cd salesforce_pipeline
dlt init salesforce motherduck
pip install -r requirements.txt
python salesforce_pipeline.py
```

Managed ingestion platforms can also move Salesforce data into MotherDuck. Fivetran supports Salesforce as a source and MotherDuck as a destination. Airbyte supports Salesforce as a source and has a MotherDuck destination.
