What is the purpose of the Cross-Org Adapter for Salesforce Connect?

The Cross-Org Adapter for Salesforce Connect is specifically designed to enable data connection across multiple Salesforce orgs. It allows users to access and manipulate data stored in different Salesforce environments as if it were part of their current org. This functionality is particularly beneficial for organizations that operate multiple Salesforce instances, as it helps to maintain a seamless flow of information and ensures that users can work with data regardless of its original location.

When using the Cross-Org Adapter, data from various orgs can be accessed via external objects, thereby providing a unified experience without the need for complex data migration or synchronization processes. This capability enhances collaboration and improves operational efficiency across different business units or subsidiaries that may be using separate Salesforce orgs.

Other options fail to capture the specific role of the Cross-Org Adapter. For example, while importing data from other Salesforce apps may involve other tools or processes, it does not reflect the unique cross-org functionality. Similarly, facilitating data security between orgs and streamlining the user interface are not the primary purposes of the Cross-Org Adapter, which is focused on enabling data connectivity and accessibility across Salesforce environments.
