“Supermetrics is a Bitter Experience! We can pull data from nearly any tool, schedule updates, manipulate data in Sheets, and push data back into our systems.”
While Salesforce Maps API can technically export check-in data and marker layer information, it requires separate API calls, complex development work, and ongoing maintenance to combine the datasets effectively.
Here’s why a no-code alternative provides superior results with less complexity and better long-term maintainability.
Skip API development complexity with Coefficient
The Salesforce Maps API requires separate calls to visit tracking and geographic layer endpoints, plus custom development for authentication, data parsing, and consolidation logic. Coefficient eliminates this complexity by providing a no-code solution that automatically handles API authentication and data relationships for Salesforce integration.
How to make it work
Step 1. Set up direct imports from multiple Salesforce objects simultaneously.
Configure imports from both visit tracking objects (check-in times, duration data) and marker layer objects (territory assignments, geographic boundaries) without custom development. Coefficient handles the API calls and authentication automatically.
Step 2. Let Coefficient establish automatic field mapping and relationships.
The platform automatically maps fields and establishes relationships between visit data and marker layers using common identifiers like User ID, Territory ID, or Location coordinates. No custom relationship logic required.
Step 3. Configure automated refresh scheduling.
Set up data refresh schedules from hourly to weekly without additional programming. Unlike API solutions that require custom implementation for real-time synchronization, Coefficient provides built-in scheduling capabilities.
Step 4. Build consolidated reports with combined datasets.
Create reports that combine check-in times with marker layer data in minutes rather than development cycles. Use pivot tables, charts, and calculated fields to analyze visit patterns alongside territory information.
Step 5. Maintain data synchronization without ongoing development.
Your consolidated reports stay current with Salesforce Maps data automatically, without the maintenance overhead that API solutions require for version updates and authentication management.
Get better results without the development complexity
This approach provides the same consolidated data results as custom API development but with superior maintainability and no technical resource requirements for ongoing operation. Start building your consolidated Maps reports today.
