Usage Notes
- Newline characters in field values are stripped out by the Salesforce reader.
- Salesforce objects and records do not have geometry. Incoming features will not have geometry.
- Salesforce fields of type base64 and address are not supported. Refer to User Attributes for details. To reduce bandwidth requirements and processing time, remove unused user attributes from the Salesforce reader’s feature types.

Schema Attributes
Additional Attributes to Expose
Use this parameter to expose Format Attributes in FME Workbench when you create a workspace:
- In a dynamic scenario, it means these attributes can be passed to the output dataset at runtime.
- In a non-dynamic scenario, this parameter allows you to expose additional attributes on multiple feature types. Click the browse button to view the available format attributes (which are different for each format) for the reader.
Specify which attributes to expose by entering the attribute names. Click the browse button next to the Additional Attributes to Expose parameter.
