Enable API Access for Salesforce Mobile App

Publiseringsdato: Oct 13, 2022
Beskrivelse

When trying to log into the Salesforce Mobile App for Android and iOS, users may experience login or data issues if they do not have the API Enabled permission. API access allows the Salesforce Mobile App to communicate with your Salesforce org's data and services.

Without it, users may see:

  • Error: 'Please check your username and password. If you still can't log in, contact your Salesforce administrator.'
  • Error: 'You don’t have access to Salesforce'
  • Problems loading Mobile App screens
  • Seeing outdated data

 

A System Administrator can resolve this by creating a Permission Set with the API Enabled permission and assigning it to the affected users without editing individual User Profiles.

NOTE: Some Salesforce Editions require additional licensing to get the 'API Enabled' permission. Please see Salesforce editions with API access.
