This document provides an overview of the Salesforce Composite API and its benefits for consultants. It discusses how mastering integrations through the Composite API can help consultants become more valuable team players and ensure project success. Examples are given of how the Composite API allows performing multiple operations in a single request, such as creating an account and contact together. Authentication using the Connected App or user credentials is also summarized. Overall, the document encourages consultants to learn the Composite API to improve their technical skills and better understand client needs for integrations.
