Track Salesforce Data Loader Logins Using Login History

Date de publication: Apr 27, 2026
Description

Salesforce allows administrators to track Data Loader login attempts using the Login History page in Setup or by querying the LoginHistory object via the Salesforce API. When a user logs in to Salesforce using Data Loader, the login attempt is recorded in the Login History record's Application field with a specific value that identifies the Data Loader client type and mode used.
This capability helps administrators monitor login activity, identify which users or automated processes are connecting via Data Loader, and audit access patterns for their organization.

Résolution

To track Data Loader login attempts, navigate to Setup > Login History, or query the LoginHistory object using SOQL or the Salesforce API.

Application Field Values for Data Loader Logins

In the Application field of each login record, one of the following values appears to identify the specific Data Loader client and mode:

  • DataLoaderPartnerUI/ — Login attempted from the Data Loader user interface (UI).
  • DataLoaderPartnerBatch/ — Login attempted from the Data Loader command-line interface (CLI).
  • DataLoaderBulkUI/ — Login attempted from the Data Loader UI with the Use Bulk API option enabled.
  • DataLoaderBulkBatch/ — Login attempted from the Data Loader command-line interface with the Use Bulk API option enabled.

How to Access Login History

  1. In Salesforce Setup, use Quick Find to search for Login History.
  2. Filter the Application column for values beginning with "DataLoader" to isolate Data Loader login events.
  3. Alternatively, query the LoginHistory object using SOQL: SELECT Application, LoginTime, UserId FROM LoginHistory WHERE Application LIKE 'DataLoader%'
