## Code

Set your Polytomic API key as an environment variable:

```bash
export POLYTOMIC_API_KEY=YOUR-API-TOKEN
```

This example covers five steps:

1. Create a Salesforce connection.
2. Create a Google Cloud Storage connection.
3. Verify the connections are ready.
4. Create a model over a Google Cloud Storage CSV file.
5. Sync the model to Salesforce Contacts.

## 1. Create a Salesforce connection

The following request creates a [Salesforce Connection](/guides/configuring-your-connections/connections/salesforce)
through the [Create Connection](/api-reference/connections/create) endpoint. For end-user onboarding, prefer Polytomic Connect's [embedded auth](/guides/embedding-authentication).

#### cURL

```bash
curl --request POST  \
     --url https://app.polytomic.com/api/connections \
     --header "accept: application/json"  \
     --header "content-type: application/json"  \
     --header "X-Polytomic-Version: 2024-02-08"   \
     --header "Authorization: Bearer ${POLYTOMIC_API_KEY}"  \
     -d '{"name": "Salesforce Connection","type": "salesforce", "configuration": {"domain": "https://example.my.salesforce.com"}}'
```

#### Python

```python
import os
from polytomic.client import Polytomic

client = Polytomic(
    token=os.getenv("POLYTOMIC_API_KEY"),
)

resp = client.connections.create(
    name="Salesforce Connection",
    configuration={"domain": "https://example.my.salesforce.com"},
    type="salesforce"
)

print(resp.data)
```

#### Typescript

```typescript

import { PolytomicClient } from 'polytomic';

const polytomic = new PolytomicClient({
  token: "POLYTOMIC_API_KEY",
});

polytomic.connections.create({
  name: "Salesforce Connection",
  type: "salesforce",
  configuration: {
     domain: "https://example.my.salesforce.com"
  },

}).then((res) => {
  console.log(res)
})

```

#### Go

```golang

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"

	polytomic "github.com/polytomic/polytomic-go"
	polytomicgoclient "github.com/polytomic/polytomic-go/client"
	"github.com/polytomic/polytomic-go/option"
)

client := polytomicgoclient.NewClient(
    option.WithToken(os.Getenv("POLYTOMIC_API_TOKEN")),
)

resp, err := client.Connections.Create(
    context.TODO(),
    &polytomic.CreateConnectionRequestSchema{
        Name:          "Salesforce Connection",
        Type:          "salesforce",
        Configuration: map[string]interface{}{
          "domain": "https://example.my.salesforce.com",
        },
    },
)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(resp)
```

Salesforce Connections authenticate with OAuth. Open the URL returned in the `auth_url` field of the response to complete the flow.

> **OAuth redirection**
>
> By default, the API expects `auth_url` to open in a new browser window.
> Set the optional `redirect_url` parameter in the request body to change
> the redirect target.

## 2. Create a Google Cloud Storage connection

The following request creates a [Google Cloud Storage Connection](/guides/configuring-your-connections/connections/google-cloud-storage#configuration).

#### cURL

```bash
curl --request POST  \
     --url https://app.polytomic.com/api/connections \
     --header "accept: application/json"  \
     --header "content-type: application/json"  \
     --header "X-Polytomic-Version: 2024-02-08"   \
     --header "Authorization: Bearer ${POLYTOMIC_API_KEY}"  \
     -d '{"name": "Google Cloud Storage Connection","type": "gcs", "configuration": { "service_account": "service_account_json_key", "bucket": "gcs://mybucket/mypath"}}'
```

#### Python

```python
import os
from polytomic.client import Polytomic

client = Polytomic(
    token=os.getenv("POLYTOMIC_API_KEY"),
)

resp = client.connections.create(
        name="Google Cloud Storage Connection",
        type="gcs",
        configuration={
            "service_account": "service_account_json_key",
            "bucket": "gcs://mybucket/mypath"
        },
    )

print(resp.data)
```

#### Typescript

```typescript

import { PolytomicClient } from 'polytomic';

const polytomic = new PolytomicClient({
  token: "POLYTOMIC_API_KEY",
});

polytomic.connections.create({
  name: "Google Cloud Storage Connection",
  type: "gcs",
  configuration: {
    service_account: "service_account_json_key",
    bucket: "gcs://mybucket/mypath"
  },

}).then((res) => {
  console.log(res)
})

```

#### Go

```golang

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"

	polytomic "github.com/polytomic/polytomic-go"
	polytomicgoclient "github.com/polytomic/polytomic-go/client"
	"github.com/polytomic/polytomic-go/option"
)

client := polytomicgoclient.NewClient(
    option.WithToken(os.Getenv("POLYTOMIC_API_TOKEN")),
)

resp, err := client.Connections.Create(
    context.TODO(),
    &polytomic.CreateConnectionRequestSchema{
        Name:          "Google Cloud Storage Connection",
        Type:          "gcs",
        Configuration: map[string]interface{}{
            "service_account": "service_account_json_key",
            "bucket": "gcs://mybucket/mypath"
        },
    },
)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(resp)
```

## 3. Verify connection readiness

Before syncing, poll the [Get Schema Status](/api-reference/schemas/get-status) endpoint for each Connection ID until `cache_status` is `true`. Once it is, the Connection's schema is ready to query.

## 4. Create a source model over the GCS CSV

Next, create a model over a CSV file in Google Cloud Storage (GCS). A model is a view — a collection of fields you can sync to other systems in whole or in part.

Call the [Create Model](/api-reference/models/create) endpoint to expose every column in `high_paying_users.csv`:

#### cURL

```bash
curl --request POST  \
     --url https://app.polytomic.com/api/models \
     --header "accept: application/json"  \
     --header "content-type: application/json"  \
     --header "X-Polytomic-Version: 2024-02-08"  \
     --header "Authorization: Bearer ${POLYTOMIC_API_KEY}"  \
     -d '{
           "name": "GCS Contacts",
            "configuration": {
                "model_from": "single_file",
                "key": "high_paying_users.csv"
            },
            "connection_id": "YOUR_GCS_CONNECTION_ID"
          }'
```

#### Python

```python
import os
from polytomic.client import Polytomic


client = Polytomic(
    token=os.getenv("POLYTOMIC_API_KEY"),
)

resp = client.models.create(
    name="GCS Contacts",
    configuration={
        "model_from": "single_file",
        "key": "high_paying_users.csv"
    },
    connection_id="YOUR_GCS_CONNECTION_ID"
)

print(resp.data)
```

#### Typescript

```typescript
import { PolytomicClient } from 'polytomic';


const polytomic = new PolytomicClient({
  token: "POLYTOMIC_API_KEY",
});


polytomic.models.create({
  name: "GCS Contacts",
  configuration: {
   model_from: "single_file",
   key: "high_paying_users.csv"
  },
  connection_id: "YOUR_GCS_CONNECTION_ID",

}).then((res) => {
  console.log(res)
})

```

#### Go

```golang

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"

	polytomic "github.com/polytomic/polytomic-go"
	polytomicgoclient "github.com/polytomic/polytomic-go/client"
	"github.com/polytomic/polytomic-go/option"
)

client := polytomicgoclient.NewClient(
    option.WithToken(os.Getenv("POLYTOMIC_API_TOKEN")),
)

resp, err := client.Models.Create(
  context.TODO(),
  &polytomic.CreateModelRequest{
      Name: "Active Users",
p      Configuration: map[string]interface{}{
            "model_from": "single_file",
            "key": "high_paying_users.csv"
      },
      ConnectionId: "YOUR_GCS_CONNECTION_ID",
  },
)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(resp)
```

## 5. Sync the GCS model to Salesforce Contacts

The sync maps `email` on the GCS model to the `Email` field on Salesforce Contacts, and also maps `first_name` and `last_name`. Add more entries to the `fields` array to sync additional columns.

### Listing target objects

To discover the target objects available on a destination, use the [Get Sync Target Objects](/api-reference/model-sync/get-target-objects) endpoint.

### Creating the sync

Create the sync with the [Create Sync](/api-reference/model-sync/create) endpoint.
