Overview
Does Okta use Salesforce Express Connect (SEC) to connect to Salesforce
Applies To
- Salesforce
- Okta Integration Network Applications (OIN)
Cause
Salesforce is moving some customer environments to Hyperforce. As a result, some of the 3rd party connections, especially Salesforce Express Connect (SEC), may be affected by this change.
Solution
Okta does not use Salesforce Express Connect (SEC), as a connection protocol. Okta connects directly to the APIs (for Salesforce) via oAuth credentials after the setup of Salesforce via Okta's Integration Network (OIN).
