Introduction
This document outlines the steps required to integrate EqualTo with your Salesforce deployment.
In summary, you will need to do the following:
- Log into Salesforce as an administrator
- Create a “Connected App” in your Salesforce deployment
- Connect EqualTo to Salesforce via your Connected App
Process
Open https://login.salesforce.com/ and log into your Salesforce account. You will need permission to create a “Connected App”.
Then, make sure to open the “Setup” page:
Next, open the “App Manager” page, and then create a new Connected App:
Configure your Connected App as follows:
- Specify the Connected App and API names (we suggest “equalto”, but this is not required)
- Specify the contact email address for the connected app (you should use your email address)
- Enable OAuth access
- Specify the following callback URLs:
https://app.equalto.com/api/connection/oauth/callback - Add the following permissions:
- German:
- Durchführen von Anforderungen in Ihrem Namen zu jedem beliebigen Zeitpunkt (refresh_token, offline_access)
- Zugriff auf Ihre Daten und Datenverwaltung (api)
- English:
- Perform requests at any time (refresh_token, offline access)
- Manage user data via APIs (api)
- Save your connected app
Next:
- Confirm that you want to save the app
Now that you have created your Connected App, you must provide to EqualTo the following:
- Consumer Secret
- Consumer Key
Finally, log into an EqualTo administrator account:
- Click ‘Data’ tab
- Click ‘Create data connection’
Then:
- Specify the connection name
- Select ‘Salesforce’ connection type
- Click ‘Create connection’
Now, open the connection:
- Click the ‘Salesforce Connection’ card
Finally:
- Click ‘Setup keys’
- Provide the ‘Consumer key’ and ‘Consumer secret’ generated earlier in this guide
- Log into your Salesforce account
Congratulations - you have now connected Salesforce and EqualTo.
