The Salesforce setup process includes 5 phases: API connection, Installation, Field validation, Field mapping, and Creation rules.
In this article, you'll learn how to assign the ScheduleOnce Permission Set to the API User in Salesforce.
Permission sets
Permission Sets in Salesforce define what functions and features your Users have access to in Salesforce. To use the ScheduleOnce connector for Salesforce, you must assign the appropriate Permission Set to your API User.
The ScheduleOnce Permission Set assigns permissions to work with Lead, Contact, Case, Account, and Activity records. This will allow the ScheduleOnce connector to create and update records through the API User.
Requirements
To assign the ScheduleOnce permission set, you will need:
- A Salesforce Administrator for your organization.
- An installed ScheduleOnce connector for Salesforce.
Assigning the ScheduleOnce permission Set
- Sign in to Salesforce as your API User.
- Go to the Setup page.
- In the Administration section, go to Users -> Permission Sets (Figure 1).
