I'm trying to create an Import Activity in Marketing Cloud to import fields from a Salesforce Custom Object, however I note that some fields are missing. If you refer to the screenshot below, you will note that there is no 'Attended__c' custom field.
However, this field is included in the Custom Object in Salesforce Sales Cloud:
Do you know why this field (and others) do not appear in the available fields within the Import Activity?
Best Answer
Only Salesforce Object fields with the appropriate Field-Level Security settings are available through Marketing Cloud Connect (formerly the 'v5 Connector').
You will need to set the Field-Level Security as described in this brief video tutorial.
Enable the 'visible' checkbox for the Sys Admin account for the respective field:
This field will now be available for the respective Object when creating a new Import Activity in Marketing Cloud.
Sidenote: It appears that Rich Text Area fields in Salesforce Objects are not available for use in the Marketing Cloud Import Activity.
