Copying Salesforce Marketing Cloud data to PostgreSQL cannot be simpler. You just need to perform the following three simple steps.
Specify necessary connection parameters for Salesforce Marketing Cloud.
Specify necessary connection parameters for PostgreSQL.
Skyvia supports secure connections to PostgreSQL.
Select Salesforce Marketing Cloud objects to replicate.
Just select check boxes in a list of Salesforce Marketing Cloud objects (e.g. Accounts, Opportunities, Contacts, Data Extensions, etc.). If necessary, you can tweak it in more details - replicate only part of Salesforce Marketing Cloud fields and filter data to replicate.
You don't need to prepare the PostgreSQL database - Skyvia creates the tables corresponding to the Salesforce Marketing Cloud objects - Accounts, Opportunities, Contacts, Data Extensions, etc. - automatically.
Skyvia can more than just create a copy of the Salesforce Marketing Cloud data in PostgreSQL - it can keep this copy in an up-to-date state automatically. All you need is to configure a schedule when to update the PostgreSQL replica database.
When updating the data copy in the PostgreSQL database, Skyvia does not perform full data copying each time. It retrieves only updated data from Salesforce Marketing Cloud and writes only necessary updates to the PostgreSQL database.
With Skyvia you can copy all the data from a Salesforce Marketing Cloud object or disable replication for some Salesforce Marketing Cloud object fields. You can also configure filters for data to replicate.
If you need more than just to copy data from Salesforce Marketing Cloud to PostgreSQL, you may use Skyvia's powerful data import functionality. Skyvia's data import tools will correctly extract Salesforce Marketing Cloud data, transform it, and load to PostgreSQL when PostgreSQL tables have different structure than Salesforce Marketing Cloud objects.
