Configure Salesforce integration in an Aurora community

The Khoros Community integration package leverages custom Salesforce settings, which are used by many components and relate to the Khoros Community configuration settings on Salesforce.

After you set up your Salesforce environment, you must configure your community environment to complete the integration.

From the community Settings area, admins can access and configure Salesforce settings (Settings > Features > Salesforce).

To configure the Salesforce integration:

1. Sign in to the community as an Admin.
2. Go to Settings > Features > Salesforce > Settings.
3. From the Settings section, configure the following:
   • In Username for Salesforce, select Edit and configure the following:
     • • Username for Salesforce: Enter your full sign-in name (usually an email address) for a user with the System Administrator profile in your Salesforce environment.
       • Password: Enter your password and your “Salesforce.com” security token in this field. For example, if your password is “secret” and your security token is “1234,” you would enter “secret1234” in this field. Read more on how to reset your security token.
       • Salesforce API URL: This is a mandatory field. Enter a URL for the Salesforce SOAP API based on the environment type you’re connecting to: Production: https://login.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u/ Sandbox: https://test.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u/
       • Authentication endpoint for Salesforce: Enter the authentication endpoint based on the Salesforce environment you’re connecting to:
         Production: https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token Sandbox: https://test.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token
       • Email for Salesforce integration failure notification: Enter the email addresses (separated by commas) of the members to be notified when the Salesforce integration point fails.

Changes to the Salesforce Integration API App

If you're using connector version 4.4 or higher, make the following changes to the Salesforce Integration API app. These changes are not required for versions earlier than 4.4.

1. Contact support to enable the appropriate configuration for your community for Salesforce connector v4.4.
   The new setting automatically appears in Aurora Admin as shown below.
2. Open the Options menu for this app (three dots) and select Edit web app.
   The Edit Web App window opens.
   
3. In the Authorization redirect URL field, enter the redirect URL (or the callback URL). The redirect URL is the URL of the VisualForce page for Custom Settings in Khoros Salesforce Connector.

4. Select Edit.

   The entries are saved.
