I'm looking at the c# code for SOAP API Merge() located here:

https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api.meta/api/sforce_api_calls_merge.htm?q=merge

The problem i'm having is figuring out how to get this to work in c# because I dont have an 'Account' type.  How do I create the Account? :

// Create two accounts to merge
Account[] accounts = new Account[2];

 

Currently I am using REST API but now have a need to Merge two Accounts in Salesforce.

I found that this does not exist in REST API, but does in SOAP.

What I'm wondering is if anyone knows if they will be adding Merge to REST API?

Thank you,
Scott

Every day I want to use Salesforce API and send about 5000 records from our existing SQL Server database to Salesforce using API.

I am new to Salesforce but have experience working with API's.

What I want to know is do I use the BULK API for this?

Everything I have read says that to use the BULK API I have to upload the data using CSV.  Is it possible to upload directly from SQL Server to Salesforce using a .net app?

TIA!
