Salesforce.com Connector

The Salesforce.com connector provides a single point for all user administration and lets you administer the account objects on Salesforce.com endpoints:

Other Salesforce.com objects, such as public groups, roles, and profiles are read-only.

You can use the Salesforce.com connector to:

• Acquire Salesforce.com endpoints
• Explore Salesforce.com endpoints for existing users, public groups, roles and profiles
• Create, update, suspend, resume, or rename a Salesforce.com user

  Note: You cannot use the Salesforce.com connector to delete a Salesforce.com user. By, default CA IdentityMinder is configured to suspend the account on the Salesforce.com endpoint and place the account in a delete pending state when any operation that attempts to delete a Salesforce.com account directly or indirectly occurs.

  Note: For more information, about suspending and resuming a user, see the CA IdentityMinder User Console online help.

• Associate or disassociate a Salesforce.com user with, or from, public groups

  Note: Salesforce.com users, rather than administrators, manage private groups. Therefore you cannot use the Salesforce.com connector to provision private groups.

• Associate or disassociate a Salesforce.com user with a Salesforce.com role
• Associate a Salesforce.com user with a Salesforce.com profile
• Suspend or resume the account of a Salesforce.com user
