Change Data Capture in Salesforce

Change Data Capture in Salesforce

A CDC event, or change event, is a notification that Salesforce sends when a change to a Salesforce record occurs as part of a create, update, delete, or undelete operation.

1. Salesforce sends notifications for record changes, including create, update, delete, and undelete operations.
2. Doesn’t check sharing rules.
3. Gives access to events for up to three days.
