          Grant Access to Authentication Settings for Legacy Named Credentials

          Grant Access to Authentication Settings for Legacy Named Credentials

          For legacy named credentials that use per-user authentication, grant access to users through permission sets and profiles. Doing so lets users set up and manage their own authentication settings for accessing the external system.

          Important
          Important In Winter ’23, Salesforce introduced an improved named credential that’s extensible, customizable, and more secure. We strongly recommend that you use this preferred credential instead of legacy named credentials, which are no longer updated or enhanced. For information on extensible, customizable named credentials, see Named Credentials Schema.
