Configure OAuth settings

The OAuth Configuration details page helps you set up the connection:

• Note the Redirect URI provided for your app. You'll use this URL to register with Salesforce.
• Client ID and Client Secret are generated by Salesforce when you register an OAuth App. They enable Scalekit to authenticate your app and establish trust with Salesforce.

• Copy the generated Client ID and Client Secret into the Scalekit Dashboard

After completing the setup, click "Save Changes" in Scalekit for the changes to take effect.
