How it connects
Salesforce has an official connector in Claude's directory. A Claude admin switches it on and each person signs in with their own Salesforce login, so Claude only sees what they're allowed to see. Helm handles the setup, checks the permissions and trains your team on what to ask.
Looking after your Salesforce data
Salesforce often holds large amounts of customer data, so Helm respects your existing profiles and permission sets and gives Claude only the objects and fields each team needs.
- Only the access you approve.
- Everything stays in your own accounts.
- On Claude's business plans, your data isn't used to train AI models.
