# saveLog() for Salesforce Classic

## Usage

Saves or updates an object in Salesforce.

:::note
If an object uses `recordType`, pass the `recordTypeId` in the `saveLog` call. If you don’t pass the `recordType`, the record is created using the default `recordType` for the profile. For person accounts, you can't pass the person account `recordType` if the profile's default is to a business account.
