Tutorial
Make sure you have a Heroku app, with a Postgres database attached
Add the Heroku Connect add-on to your app
$ heroku addons:create herokuconnect
Link the new connection (the Heroku Connect add-on instance) to your Heroku user
$ heroku connect:info
Now link the connection to the database, specifying the config var and schema name
$ heroku connect:db:set --db=DATABASE_URL --schema=salesforce
settings database parameters... done
db_key: DATABASE_URL
schema_name: salesforce
If either option is not supplied, this command will ask for a value.
Authorize the connection to access your Salesforce organization
$ heroku connect:sf:auth
Launching Salesforce for authorization. If your browser doesn't open, please copy the following URL to proceed:
https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/authorize?…
This will launch your browser for an interactive authorization session.
Verify that connection is now in 'IDLE' state
$ heroku connect:state
IDLE
Now restore the exported configuration
This could be exported using the connect:export
command or directly through the Heroku Connect dashboard. By editing this configuration file, you can add and edit existing mappings easily.
$ heroku connect:import app-name-resource-name.json
Upload complete
If you need to delete a mapping after the configuration has been imported, you can use a separate command for that:
$ heroku connect:mapping:delete Contact
Connect to your database to see the data
$ heroku pg:psql
> select * from salesforce.contact;
