Your Salesforce security token
To connect the integration, you’ll need to add your Salesforce security token to the end of your Salesforce password, as shown above.
If you already know your security token, you can paste that at the end of your password.
If you don’t have your current security token, you can reset it and get a new one to paste in. Follow Salesforce’s steps to reset your token.
Resetting your security token could impact other application connections in your Salesforce account. Check with your Salesforce administrator first. |
