Salesforce
Salesforce connections to the CipherTrust Manager can be configured using the following:
Managing Salesforce Connections using GUI
Username - username to access the Salesforce server.
Client ID - application ID of the Salesforce application. It can be used either with Client Secret or Certificate to authenticate the application.
Note
The Salesforce Connection Manager does not allow using one client id for multiple connections for certificate based authentication. This limitation exists because the Salesforce server allows only one certificate for a client id at any given time.
However, if client credential based authentication is used, multiple connections are allowed with one client id.Cloud Name - the name of the Salesforce cloud to connect to. Currently, only the following options are available:
Salesforce Sandbox Cloud
Salesforce Cloud
Authentication - you can use either Client Secret or Certificate for authentication purpose.
Client Secret – this authentication method uses the account password and the Client Secret for the given Client ID to enable the communication between Salesforce and the CipherTrust Manager.
Certificate - this authentication method is used to enable password-less communication between Salesforce and the CipherTrust Manager. To do so:
Specify the Certificate Duration in Days ( 1 day to 10 years).
Note
The default certificate duration is 10 years.
Select the Certificate radio button and click the Generate and Download button.
Upload the downloaded certificate on Salesforce for the provided Client ID.
Once the upload is done, verify the Certificate Subject on the CipherTrust Manager and Salesforce, and both the Certificate Subjects must match.
Click Next to move to the next step.
Note
Currently, the only product supported for Salesforce connection is Cloud Key Manager.
