Integrate Salesforce developer edition to MS Sentinel

Hello @Arun Voleti

The process involves creating a dedicated Salesforce user, generating a security token, identifying the correct Token URI, and creating a Connected App to obtain the Consumer Key and Secret. These credentials are then used to configure the Salesforce data connector in Microsoft Sentinel.

1. How to generate Salesforce API User:

• Go to Setup -> Users -> New User.
• Fill in the required fields (First Name, Last Name, Email, Username, Nickname).
• Set User License to "Salesforce".
• Choose a Profile with API access (e.g., System Administrator or a custom profile with "API Enabled").
• Save the user.

2. How to generate Salesforce Password:

• Set the password during user creation or via the verification email sent to the user.

3. How to generate Salesforce Security Token:

• Go to Setup -> Reset My Security Token.
• Click "Reset Security Token".
• Check the user's email for the new security token.

4. How to generate Salesforce Token URI:

• The Token URI is typically https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token for Developer Edition.
• Verify this in your Salesforce instance's settings, especially if using a custom domain or sandbox (e.g., test.salesforce.com).

5. How to generate Salesforce Consumer Key and Consumer Secret:

• Go to Setup -> App Manager -> New Connected App.
• Fill in Basic Information (Connected App Name, API Name, Contact Email).
• In API (Enable OAuth Settings), check "Enable OAuth Settings".
• Set Callback URL (e.g., https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/success).
• Select OAuth Scopes (e.g., Access and manage your data (api), Perform requests on your behalf at any time (refresh_token, offline_access)).
• In Web App Settings, check "Start URL" and set the URL (e.g., https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/success).
• Save the Connected App.
• Go to App Manager, find your app, and click "Manage".
• Find the Consumer Key and Consumer Secret under "API (Enable OAuth Settings)". You may need to click "Reveal" to see the Consumer Secret.
