    Hello Suniti

    Command Line Interface Data Loader helps to automate the batch operations such as nightly scheduled loads and data extractions.

    Data Loader is great native tool provide by the Salesforce to insert, upsert, update, export and delete data. Standard Data Loader wizard needs interaction however there are many scenarios where we need to perform these data loading tasks repeatedly like every night 1:00 AM (Nightly Services) or something. So, for these situations we can use standard data loader tool from Command line.

     

    Thanks

    Hi,

    In addition to using Data Loader interactively to import and export data, you can run it from the command line. You can use commands to automate the import and export of data.

    Hope this helps.
