Function: initializeAnalyticsSdk()
initializeAnalyticsSdk(
config):Promise<BootstrapResponse>
Use this method to initialize the Analytics Embedding SDK with the provided configuration.
Calling this method clears all event data before initialization.
Successful initialization triggers a successEvent, while any failures due to configuration or authorization issues trigger an errorEvent.
Parameters
• config: AnalyticsSdkConfig
The configuration to use for SDK initialization
Returns
Promise<BootstrapResponse>
A promise that resolves to the result of the initialization.

The SDK supports initializing and embedding components from multiple Salesforce orgs.
Use the orgConfigs array to configure multiple orgs:
1// Multi-org initialization
2await initializeAnalyticsSdk({
3 orgConfigs: [
4 {
5 authCredential: "https://org1.salesforce.com/secur/frontdoor.jsp?sid=123...",
6 orgUrl: "https://org1.lightning.force.com" // Must be Lightning URL
7 },
8 {
9 authCredential: "https://org2.salesforce.com/secur/frontdoor.jsp?sid=123...",
10 orgUrl: "https://org2.lightning.force.com" // Must be Lightning URL
11 }
12 ]
13});
14
15// When creating components in multi-org scenarios, always specify orgUrl
16const dashboard1 = new AnalyticsDashboard({
17 parentIdOrElement: 'container1',
18 idOrApiName: 'Dashboard1',
19 orgUrl: 'https://org1.lightning.force.com' // Required in multi-org
20});
21
22const dashboard2 = new AnalyticsDashboard({
23 parentIdOrElement: 'container2',
24 idOrApiName: 'Dashboard2',
25 orgUrl: 'https://org2.lightning.force.com' // Required in multi-org
26});Note: The orgUrl parameter must be a Lightning URL (e.g., https://yourorg.lightning.force.com), not the my.salesforce.com domain URL.
Auth Redirect Flow (Single-Org or Multi-Org: MFA / Password Reset)
In multi-org scenarios, each org can complete with a different outcome. In single-org scenarios,
the same redirect handling applies for the single org. If an org requires additional
authentication, like a MFA challenge or password reset, this method can return a non-success state
for that org with redirect metadata in orgStates:
state:AUTH_REDIRECTredirectUrl: org-provided relative redirect pathredirectOrigin: org-provided origin
For each org in AUTH_REDIRECT, open ${redirectOrigin}${redirectUrl} in a popup/tab and complete
the required auth step, then call retryOrAddOrgs() for the affected org(s) to resume initialization.
Retry parameter patterns:
- Standard retry: use a fresh frontdoor URL/session credential
{ orgUrl, authCredential: "<frontdoor url>" } - MFA/password-reset resumed session (supported): use org URL as credential
{ orgUrl, authCredential: orgUrl }
When the MFA/password-reset completes and session is established, you can retry with
authCredential: orgUrl without regenerating frontdoor URL. If the retry fails, regenerate
frontdoor URL and retry.
