How to Use the Fivetran REST API To Enable the Syncing of Salesforce Formula Fields

To allow existing Salesforce connections to sync calculated or formula fields using the REST API, send a PATCH request to the Update a connection endpoint with the sync_formula_fields parameter set to true.

Our incremental sync may not extract all records affected by formula field changes. See our Salesforce formula field sync limitations for more information. As a result, we only recommend directly syncing formula fields if our Salesforce Formula Utils dbt or Salesforce Quickstart packages don't apply to your use case.
