Salesforce authentication

Prerequisites

To create a connection, you need the following credentials:

  • OAuth 2.0 Authorization code and OAuth 2.0 Password: username and password
  • Bring your own OAuth 2.0 app: Client ID, Client secret
  • Personal Access Token (PAT): JWT base64 encoded key, Audience, Issuer, Subject.

Additionally, you may need an authenticator application installed on your mobile phone.

See the differences between available authentication methods:

To learn more about the different types of authentication available for Salesforce, see the official Salesforce documentation in Create a Connected App.

Note:

To authenticate on Salesforce, you must have the Salesforce Sales Cloud Enterprise edition or Professional edition with API support.

To set up a new application in Salesforce Sales Cloud, you must have Administrator privileges. Contact your system administrator if you do not have those privileges.

Add the Salesforce connection

To create a connection to your Salesforce instance, you need to perform the following steps:

  1. Select Integration Service from Automation Cloud.

  2. From the Connectors list, select Salesforce. You can also use the search bar to narrow down the connector.
