Salesforce Pardot is a popular marketing automation platform. It allows businesses and marketing professionals to connect with potential customers, build meaningful relationships with them, and drive more conversion. Pardot also offers some excellent tools to empower the sales teams to close more deals.

FAQs

Is it possible to have multiple Cloud Extract sources writing to the same schema?

Yes, it is.

We have implemented a feature wherein RudderStack associates a table prefix for every Cloud Extract source writing to a warehouse schema. This way, multiple Cloud Extract sources can write to the same schema with different table prefixes.
