Overview​

This page contains the setup guide and reference information for the Pardot (Salesforce Marketing Cloud Account Engagement) source connector.

Prerequisites​

  • Pardot/Marketing Cloud Account Engagement account
  • Pardot Business Unit ID
  • Client ID
  • Client Secret
  • Refresh Token

Setup Guide​

Required configuration options​

  • Pardot Business Unit ID (pardot_business_unit_id): This value uniquely identifies your account, and can be found at Setup > Pardot > Pardot Account Setup

  • Client ID (client_id): The Consumer Key that can be found when viewing your app in Salesforce

  • Client Secret (client_secret): The Consumer Secret that can be found when viewing your app in Salesforce

  • Refresh Token (refresh_token): Salesforce refresh token that Airbyte uses to access your Account Engagement data. To get one:

    1. In Salesforce Setup, create an External Client App with OAuth enabled. Since Spring '26, Salesforce no longer lets you create new connected apps by default. Existing connected apps keep working.
    2. Select the Manage Pardot services (pardot_api) and Perform requests at any time (refresh_token, offline_access) OAuth scopes. Account Engagement rejects tokens that don't have the pardot_api scope. See Account Engagement API authentication.
    3. Use the OAuth web server (authorization code) flow to get a refresh token for a user who has access to Account Engagement.
    4. Don't turn on Refresh Token Rotation or Immediately expire refresh token for this app. The connector stores one refresh token and can't save a new one that Salesforce issues on every refresh.
Refresh tokens expire after 30 days without use

Starting November 4, 2026, Salesforce expires production refresh tokens that haven't been used for 30 days. Every sync uses the refresh token and restarts that 30-day window. A connection that syncs at least once every 30 days keeps working. If a connection is paused, or scheduled to sync less often than every 30 days, its refresh token expires and syncs fail to authenticate. To recover, generate a new refresh token and update the source.

Optional configuration options​

  • Start Date (start_date): UTC date and time in the format 2020-01-25T00:00:00Z. Any data before this date will not be replicated. Defaults to 2007-01-01T00:00:00Z (the year Pardot was launched)

  • Is Sandbox App? (is_sandbox): Whether or not the app is in a Salesforce sandbox. If you do not know what this is, assume it is false.

Supported Sync Modes​

The Pardot source connector supports the following sync modes:

  • Full Refresh
  • Incremental

Incremental streams are based on the Pardot API's UpdatedAt field when the object is updateable and the API supports it; otherwise CreatedAt or Id are used in that order of preference.

Performance Considerations​

The Pardot connector should not run into Pardot API limitations under normal usage. Please create an issue if you see any rate limit issues that are not automatically retried successfully.

tip

Pardot has daily API limits based on plan level. If one of these limits is hit, the connector will retry every two hours until quota is replenished.

Supported Streams​

Several output streams are available from this source. Unless noted otherwise, streams are from Pardot's v5 API:

If there are more endpoints you'd like Airbyte to support, please create an issue.

IP allow list​

If you use Airbyte Cloud and your organization restricts access to specific IPs, add the Airbyte Cloud IP addresses to your allow list.
