Complete the Salesforce Guided Setup

The Salesforce guided setup guides you through adding the Salesforce organization as an app and specifying the location to back up the Salesforce app.

Note: If you are an MSP and you want your tenant administrators to create the Salesforce app, see Managed Server Provider Configuration.

Before You Begin

Add a Connected App in Salesforce. You must have the Salesforce consumer key and the Salesforce consumer secret that are generated when you add the connected app.
Decide if you want to connect to Salesforce with OAuth or with a user name and password. If you connect with OAuth, you will provide the Salesforce consumer key and the Salesforce consumer secret, and then log on to Salesforce. If your Salesforce org is configured to use SSO as the user login method, and SSO is the only method used, you must use OAuth authentication. If you use OAuth, the port that must be open between the Web Server and the Salesforce Cloud is 443 (one way).
Review the requirements for the Microsoft SQL server database or the PostgreSQL database, and then verify that you have the following database information:
- The type of database
- The client that hosts the database. The access node is able to connect to the database instance using JDBC URL.
- The database name
- The credentials for a user who meets the access requirements
