How to subscribe the salesforce platform events using logic app salesforce connector?

Question

Hi Team,

We have a logic app with a Salesforce trigger (when a record is created) configured to a platform event. But when I am trying to run the trigger I see the following error:

Salesforce failed to complete task: Message: entity type CustomEvent__e does not support query

What is the best way to subscribe to a platform event using logic apps?

@Rishit Thanks for reaching out.

Unfortunately, as of now the custom tables are not supported. Some limitations are document here.

The salesforce connector logic is based on assumption that every table is derived from the default “Standard Object” type, which has an Id column.

The workaround would be creating your own custom connector and leveraging the REST endpoint from the salesforce end.

I will also suggest you to pass your feedback/feature request in the feedback forum here.
