## Prerequisites

Before setting up Sage People integration, you need to configure Salesforce OAuth which is managed via a Connected app as Sage People uses Salesforce credentials for authentication.

## Salesforce Developer Account Setup

### New Salesforce Users

If you don't have a Salesforce account yet, follow these steps:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Sign up for Salesforce Developer Edition">
    1. Go to [Salesforce Developer Edition signup](https://developer.salesforce.com/signup)
    2. Fill in your details and create a free Developer Edition account
    3. Verify your email address
    4. Complete the account setup process
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enable Connected Apps">
    1. Log in to your Salesforce Developer Edition account
    2. Navigate to **Setup** > **Apps** > **External Client App Manager** > **Settings**
    3. Toggle the button for **Allow creation of connected apps**
    4. Click **Enable**
       <Note>Connected Apps are disabled by default in new Salesforce organizations</Note>
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Creating a Connected App

<Steps>
  <Step title="Configure Connected App settings">
    1. Click **New Connected App**.
    2. Fill in the required basic information:
       * **Connected App Name**: Your app's name
       * **API Name**: Will auto-populate
       * **Contact Email**: Your email address
    3. Check the **Enable OAuth Settings** checkbox.
    4. For **Callback URL**, enter: `https://api.nango.dev/oauth/callback`.
    5. Under **Selected OAuth Scopes**, add the permissions your app needs. At minimum, add:
       * "Access and manage your data (api)"
       * "Perform requests on your behalf at any time (refresh\_token, offline\_access)"
    6. Leave the rest of the default settings unchanged.
    7. Click **Save**, then **Continue**.
       <Note>Changes can take up to 10 minutes to take effect</Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Obtain API credentials">
    1. After saving, you'll be redirected to the Connected App detail page.
    2. You may need to wait a few minutes for the app to be fully created.
    3. Click **Manage Consumer Details** to view your credentials. You may be required to verify your identity.
    4. Copy the **Consumer Key** (this is your Client ID) and **Consumer Secret** (this is your Client Secret).
    5. You will need these credentials when configuring your integration in Nango.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure token settings (recommended)">
    1. Under the **Connected Apps** dropdown, click **Manage Connected Apps**, then click the **Edit** button next to your application.
    2. Under **OAuth Policies**, set **Refresh Token Policy** to "Refresh token is valid until revoked" for long-lived access.
    3. Click **Save**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Next">

## API gotchas

* **Salesforce Authentication**: Sage People uses Salesforce authentication, so you must set up a Salesforce OAuth app first.
* **Sage People API User**: After setting up the Salesforce Connected App, you need to [create a new API user](/integrations/all/sage-people/connect#step-1-create-a-sage-people-api-user) within Sage People with the necessary permission sets where we have the **Sage People API** package installed. This user will be used to authenticate with the Connected App you created above.
