Available tools

create_account

Create a new Salesforce account. Required: Name (must be unique). Use unique account names with timestamps to avoid duplicates.

get_account

Retrieve a Salesforce account by ID with complete details including standard and custom fields. Returns account information such as name, industry, revenue, employee count, addresses, and any custom fields. Use this to fetch full account details before updating or to verify account data. Supports selective field retrieval for performance optimization.

update_account

Update an existing Salesforce account with new information. Modify any account fields including name, industry, revenue, employee count, addresses, parent relationship, and custom fields. Only provide fields you want to change - unchanged fields remain as-is. Supports partial updates for efficient data management. Use when account information changes or to enrich account data.

delete_account

Permanently delete a Salesforce account from the system. This moves the account to the Recycle Bin where it can be restored within 15 days, after which it's permanently deleted. Use with extreme caution - deleting accounts removes all related contacts, opportunities, cases, and activities. This is a destructive operation that impacts multiple objects. Requires delete permissions on Account object.

list_accounts

List Salesforce accounts with automatic field access handling. Dynamically removes inaccessible fields and retries query.

search_accounts

Search Salesforce accounts using text queries across name, website, and phone fields. Automatically handles field access permissions by removing inaccessible fields and retrying. More powerful than list_accounts for finding specific accounts by keywords. Returns ranked results based on relevance.

FAQs on using Merge's Salesforce MCP server

How can I use the Salesforce MCP server?

The use cases naturally depend on the agent you’ve built, but here are a few common ones:

Automated opportunity creation: Your agent can automatically create Salesforce Opportunities when leads hit qualification thresholds

Real-time opportunity updates: As sales reps talk to prospects, your agent can automatically update opportunity details, such as the deal amount, expected close date, and status

Sales intelligence: Your agent can help sales leaders create custom reports on rep performance via CRM data. For example, a sales leader can ask for a quota attainment report, and the agent can use fields like sales reps’ names, historical quotas, and close-won revenues to create them

Proposal writing: Your agent can generate personalized sales proposals by pulling data from the relevant CRM opportunity pages and by leveraging similar past proposals from other prospects

What makes Merge Agent Handler’s Salesforce MCP server better than alternative Salesforce MCP servers?

Here are just a few reasons:

Enterprise-grade security with DLP: Merge Agent Handler scans tool inputs and responses for sensitive data and applies configured rules to block, redact, or mask sensitive information. This protects Salesforce data handled by agents

Real-time observability and a fully-searchable audit trail: Every tool call is logged, including underlying API requests, enabling debugging, monitoring, and compliance reviews. Logs are also fully-searchable, making it easy for your team to troubleshoot and resolve specific integration issues quickly

Built-in authentication and credential lifecycle management: Agent Handler provides guided authentication flows, dynamic authorization, and secure credential handling without requiring custom auth code
Connector Studio for customizing Salesforce tools: You can add, modify, or extend Salesforce connector functionality, which is especially useful when your agents need to work with and support custom Salesforce objects or workflows

How can I add the Salesforce MCP connector to Tool Packs in Merge Agent Handler?

To add the Salesforce connector to a Tool Pack in Merge Agent Handler:

1. Log into the Agent Handler dashboard.

2. Create or select a Tool Pack. Navigate to "Tool Packs" in the sidebar, and either create a new Tool Pack or select an existing one.

3. Add the Salesforce connector to your Tool Pack. Simply Click "Add Connector," select Salesforce from the available connectors, and configure the authentication type (Individual or Shared credentials).

4. Customize the connector (optional). Navigate to "Connectors" in the sidebar, and then select the Salesforce connector. From there, you can add new tools, modify existing tool descriptions, or adjust input schemas. You can also edit tool implementations for custom Salesforce actions.

5. Save your changes.The Salesforce connector and its tools should now be available in your Tool Pack.
