Steps
In Data Cloud Setup, navigate to Data Streams and create a new Salesforce CRM connector data stream
Select the source CRM object and choose the fields to include; map each field to the appropriate Data Cloud data model attribute
Set the refresh schedule (full or incremental) and configure the data space the stream will land in
Activate the data stream and trigger an initial sync to populate the Data Lake Object
Monitor the Data Stream run history for errors and confirm row counts in the associated Data Lake Object
Use the Data Cloud Query API or Calculated Insights to validate that the ingested data is queryable
Known gotchas
Incremental sync relies on the source object's SystemModstamp field; objects without a reliable last-modified field may require full refresh
Field mapping to Data Model Objects must respect the attribute's expected data type; mismatched types cause mapping errors at activation time
Data Streams count against Data Cloud data storage entitlements; large objects should be filtered to only required fields
