Show HN: Open-source platform for customer-facing Salesforce integrations (github.com)
Why?
- We built user-facing HubSpot and Salesforce integrations in a previous product we worked on and did not find an existing solution that let us build it quickly, using code, and that supported custom business logic, so we built in-house.
- There were some unified API products we evaluated, but they lacked depth, e.g. support for custom fields and objects.
- There were UI-based workflow builders, but we did not want to click around in a UI tool to author business logic.
- None of the options we evaluated came with ready-to-use React components, nor were they customizable.
With our public alpha you can:
- On a schedule, sync Accounts, Contacts, Leads, and Opportunities from Salesforce into your application
- Customize where syncs write to (Postgres or an API endpoint), as well as its retry behavior
- Author syncs using Typescript
- Offload the full OAuth flow and token management to our backend and frontend components
- Embed React components for OAuth, field mappings, on/off toggles, and manual syncs into your Next.js application
- Deploy sync code and monitor sync status using a CLI
- Open source MIT license so anyone can self-host
We’re very early: we started working on this after the new year and are releasing a public alpha to get early feedback. You can run Supaglue locally using docker compose today. Try it out and send us a note! Website: https://supaglue.com. Github: https://github.com/supaglue-labs/supaglue.

[ 3.0 ms ] story [ 26.5 ms ] threadIt looks like there are already similar products on the market for integrating with customers' tools, like Merge API.
In fact, they support integrating with more than just CRMs, and also support HR systems, etc. In what use cases would I consider using Supaglue?
Many B2B SaaS products require deeper integrations and more customizability beyond what a common data model supports (e.g. custom objects). Supaglue is designed to solve for these use cases.
