+For example, add the *Create* operation from Anypoint Connector for Salesforce to insert an Account record.
++
+Use this pattern when your flow receives data through an HTTP Listener and must create Salesforce records.

+.. In the *Add Component* panel, search for *Set payload*, and add the component.
+.. Configure *Set payload* with a DataWeave expression that builds a JSON object whose fields match your HTTP API (they need not match Salesforce field names yet).
++
+For example, use *fx* to enter DataWeave with `output application/json` and sample fields such as `companyName`, `industry`, and `phoneNumber`.
++
+Alternatively, add *Transform Message* and use the same DataWeave in `<ee:set-payload/>`.
++
+For more information about *Transform Message*, see xref:anypoint-code-builder::acb-component-transform.adoc[].

+* *Connection config*: The global Salesforce configuration name (for example, `Salesforce_Config`).
+* *Type*: `Account`.
+* *Records*: A DataWeave expression that resolves to the records to create.
++
+If the incoming payload uses different property names than Salesforce expects, map those properties in *Records*, as shown in the configuration XML example that follows.
+If the payload is already an array of Java objects with Salesforce field names (`output application/java`), you can use `#[payload]`.
+--
++
+[TIP]
+====
+If *Type* stays empty until you establish a working Salesforce connection, set `type="Account"` on `<salesforce:create/>` in the configuration XML.
+For more information about connector fields for this operation, see xref:salesforce-connector::index.adoc[].
+====
++
+[NOTE]
+====
+Picklist fields such as *Industry* must use values that exist in your Salesforce organization.
+====
++
+The following configuration XML listens on `/accounts`, builds a JSON payload, maps it to Account fields inside `<salesforce:records/>`, and calls *Create*.
+Align `config-ref` on `<http:listener/>` with the `name` of your `<http:listener-config/>` (for example, `config-ref` from the earlier steps in this topic).

+
+</flow>
+----
++
+If the message payload is already an array of Java objects with Salesforce field names, you can omit `<salesforce:records/>` and set *Records* to `#[payload]`, or use a self-closing `<salesforce:create/>` element with that default.
++
+You can achieve the same result by adding *Transform Message* with `output application/java` followed by `<salesforce:create type="Account" config-ref="Salesforce_Config"/>` with *Records* set to `#[payload]`.
