**Setting Up A Salesforce Connection**

Before you get started, Salesforce has its own overview of this process, which details each step: [https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.ev_relay_create_connected_app.htm&type=5](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.ev_relay_create_connected_app.htm&type=5)

1. Log into your Salesforce Dashboard
2. Click **Platform Tools**, then **App Manager,** followed by **New Connected App**

4) Enter the application details, then click **Enable OAuth Settings.**The following settings are an example and may be altered as needed to meet client requirements. At a minimum, the OAuth app should return the user's name and email.

The callback URL is the address of your WooNinja SSO application, followed by /login/salesforce/callback E.g. [https://connect.wooninja.io/login/salesforce/callback](https://connect.wooninja.io/login/salesforce/callback)

5. Click **Save**

7) In the modal, refer to your other window from Salesforce  that displays your Salesforce Consumer Key and Secret:

- Enter the **Client ID (Key)** and **Secret**
- Select **Salesforce** as your provider
- Click **Add**, and in the box, type **instance_url** and in the next box, enter your **Salesforce domain**e.g. [https://dev-ed.my.salesforce.com](https://dev-ed.my.salesforce.com/) Do not add a trailing slash at the end of the URL.

When complete, your modal should look similar to this:

**Important: **

- Verify your information before proceeding, as you cannot modify this data once the connection is set up.

Finally, click**Create**

8) When the connection is saved successfully, you can click **View Connection Details**to display the login link your users must click to gain access to Salesforce
