Salesforce Einstein Analytics with a CSV file or a database in Jitterbit Design Studio

Caution

Salesforce has renamed Salesforce Wave Analytics as Salesforce Einstein Analytics. However, Jitterbit Design Studio still retains the original name of Wave Analytics. Both terms are used here as appropriate.

Note

To obtain this Jitterpak, contact Jitterbit support. The Jitterpak is unsupported and is to be used only for reference with Design Studio.

Overview

The Jitterbit Salesforce Wave Analytics (Einstein Analytics) Connector provides any Salesforce/Jitterbit customer the ability to analyze any data external to Salesforce such as SAP, Microsoft AX, or custom on-premises databases by leveraging Jitterbit's connectors, Transformation Wizard, and its support for standard protocols. The Jitterbit Salesforce Wave Analytics (Einstein Analytics) Connector leverages all existing components of Jitterbit. Any Jitterbit user designing Jitterbit projects and operations can easily augment their existing projects and inject the required external data into Salesforce Einstein Analytics.
