Identity Connect is installed on a server for all your licensed users to access. Before
installing Identity Connect, create an Identity Connect integration user record in Salesforce.
This user record isn’t actually a user, but instead, it’s used by Identity Connect to integrate AD
user account updates with Salesforce user records. We recommend using the Identity Connect
integration user solely for Identity Connect integrations.
Required Editions
Available in: both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience
Available for an additional cost in: Enterprise, Performance,
and Unlimited Editions. Developer Edition includes 10 Identity
Connect permission set licenses.
User Permissions Needed

Important As of the Winter ’22 release, Identity Connect 2.1 and Identity Connect
3.0.1.2 aren't available or supported. For improved security, download Identity Connect 7.1.6.
Identity Connect 7.1.6 adds to the extensive security improvements introduced in Identity
Connect 7.1.1. Before downloading, make sure that you have the latest version of the Identity
Connect managed package installed.
To install Identity Connect, you must have at least one Identity Connect license. Contact
Salesforce to purchase Identity Connect. Identity Connect doesn’t appear in Setup until
Salesforce adds the feature.
From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Identity Connect, and then
select Identity Connect.
Click the download link that corresponds to your operating system.
Note To request information on how to obtain the underlying source code in Identity Connect,
