WeDid: Salesforce and Rent.com.au Portal

By Mei Yan | August 25, 2014

Challenges

All real estate listings reside in Salesforce. However, these listings need to be consistently updated to the website portal to truly reflect the availability and pricing information (to name a few). The major challenges are:

  • too many listings to keep track of the status and update to the portal
  • listings get updated too frequently causing timing issue

 

Solution:

Purpose Synchronise listing information from Salesforce to designated Rent.com.au portal path for retrieval
Applications Salesforce
FTP – Rent.com.au Portal
Tool Dell Boomi Atomsphere
Information Salesforce Listing > Rent.com.au FTP Server
Data Formats XML
Volumes ~100
Process Any listings that are created/updated will be synced to Rent.com.au FTP server as zipped file containing listings in XML format.
Schedule Every 10 mins
Complexity Medium
