How Does Fivetran Capture Deletes From Salesforce?

In Salesforce, there are two types of deletes:

• Soft deletes
• Hard deletes

For more information, see Salesforce's Data Deletes and Extracts documentation.

Once you soft-delete a record in Salesforce, it is moved to the Recycle Bin. Fivetran captures soft-deleted records from the Salesforce API using the SObject Get Deleted endpoint.

After 15 days, the record is hard-deleted and can no longer be accessed using the Salesforce API. As a result, we can't capture hard-deleted records.
