In salesforcer: An Implementation of 'Salesforce' APIs Using Tidy Principles

Recursively remove attributes data from list

Description

  object_name_append = FALSE,
  object_name_as_col = FALSE
)

object_name_as_col	logical; whether to include the object type (e.g. Account or Contact) as a new column.

Value

list containing no 'attributes' elements with the object information in the column names or the values within an object entitled 'sObject'.
