Download the Einstein AI Connector

Clone the Einstein AI Connector repository from GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/MuleSoft-AI-Chain-Project/mac-einstein1-connector.git
cd mac-einstein1-connector

Install the Connector with Java 8

mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true -DskipTests

Installing with Java 11, 17, 21, 22, etc.

Step 1

export MAVEN_OPTS="--add-opens=java.base/java.util=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.net=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.util.regex=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.lang.reflect=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.xml/javax.xml.namespace=ALL-UNNAMED"

Step 2

 
For Java 11
mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true -DskipTests -Djdeps.multiRelease=11
 
For Java 17
mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true -DskipTests -Djdeps.multiRelease=17
 
For Java 21
mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true -DskipTests -Djdeps.multiRelease=21
 
For Java 22
mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true -DskipTests -Djdeps.multiRelease=22

Add the Connector to Your Project

Add the following dependency to your pom.xml file:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.mule.mulechain</groupId>
    <artifactId>mulechain-einstein1-connector</artifactId>
    <version>{version}</version>
    <classifier>mule-plugin</classifier>		
</dependency>

Configuration

The Einstein AI connector can be easily configured. Go to the Global Elements in your MuleSoft project, and create a new configuration. In the Connector Configuration, you will find the Einstein AI Configuration. Select it and press OK.

Retrieving Salesforce Credentials

Einstein AI can be easily configured by providing the Salesforce external app or connected app client credentials.

Once the external app or connected app is created, get the client credentials for consumer ID and secret. You will also need your Salesforce organization name, which you can extract from the Salesforce URL.

Adding Credentials to Connector Configuration

Enter the data in the dedicated fields:

• Salesforce Org: Enter the name of your Salesforce org. For example, from the URL https://copilot-111-231-222-demo.my.salesforce.com/, the org name is copilot-111-231-222-demo.
• Client ID: Enter the consumer key from your external app or connected app.
• Client Secret: Enter the consumer secret from your external app or connected app.
