This document provides an example of using the Salesforce connector in Mulesoft to query an Account by ID from Salesforce and output the results. The example flow hits an HTTP endpoint, uses the Salesforce connector configured with a username/password to query for a specific Account by ID, and logs the response. It provides the XML configuration and output showing the Account details being returned from Salesforce.
