Overview

To authenticate with Simpplr, you will need:
  1. Client ID - The Client ID of a Simpplr client application.
  2. Client Secret - The Client Secret issued with that Client ID.
  3. Region - The region your Simpplr tenant is hosted in.
The client application is created inside Simpplr by an app manager. It is not your Simpplr login, and it is separate from any Salesforce connected app used by older Simpplr deployments.

Prerequisites

  • You must have the app manager role in your Simpplr tenant.
  • Your tenant must run on Simpplr’s own platform. Deployments that run as a managed package inside Salesforce authenticate through Salesforce instead; use Nango’s salesforce integration for those.

Instructions

Step 1: Create a client application

  1. Log in to your Simpplr tenant as an app manager.
  2. Click your profile image in the top right corner.
  3. Go to Manage > Application > Integrations > Client application and click Add.
  4. Fill in the registration form:
    • Application name and description - Notes to help you identify the application.
    • Client application ID - Any random UUID you generate.
    • Grant type - Select Client credentials. This is the grant the Simpplr B2B API uses. Do not select Authorization code, which is for the User API and is not supported here.
  5. Save the form, then copy the Client ID and Client Secret.
The same page shows the OAuth token URL for your tenant. Keep it open for the next step.

Step 2: Find your region

Read the region from the host in your tenant’s OAuth token URL: Nango sends both the token request and all API calls to the host for the region you pick, so a wrong value points the connection at another region’s tenant and authentication fails.

Step 3: Enter credentials in the Connect UI

Once you have your Client ID, Client Secret, and Region:
  1. Open the form where you need to authenticate with Simpplr.
  2. Select your Region from Step 2.
  3. Enter your Client ID in the Client ID field.
  4. Enter your Client Secret in the Client Secret field.
  5. Submit the form, and you should be successfully authenticated.
You are now connected to Simpplr.
