322. Scanning Salesforce Resource in Cloud Data Governance and Catalog (CDGC)
This video explains how to scan the Salesforce Resource in Cloud Data Governance and Catalog (CDGC).
Create the Refresh Token Using SFDC OAuth 2.0 Tool - https://marketplace.informatica.com/listings/cloud/solutions/sfdc_oauth_tool_for_powercenter_10_2_0_hotfix_1.html
OR
Create Refresh Token using browser and postman -
1. Log into Salesforce with one Browser tab, open another tab, and go to this URL: https://YOUR_SFDC_SERVER_INSTANCE/services/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=CONSUMER_KEY&redirect_uri=https://localhost:8443/salesforce/receivecallback
- If done correctly, this will prompt you to approve granting access. Approve
- It will redirect you to the Callback URL set above, which will fail. This is fine!
- The URL opened will look like this: https://localhost:8443/salesforce/receivecallback?code=aPrxYXyxzkuBzbDGdwv67qekAQredtrsWqty38LsdhfREyTRbvdjvTqdbvxPVC__4Cb9xGKDGErtOw%3D%3D
- copy the value of the code, including the %3D%3D at the end
2. Open Postman (or a similar tool) and create a POST action:
- URL: https://YOUR_SFDC_SERVER_INSTANCE/services/oauth2/token?code=CODE_VALUE&grant_type=authorization_code&client_id=CONSUMER_KEY&client_secret=CONSUMER_SECRET&redirect_uri=https://localhost:8443/salesforce/receivecallback
- Set the CODE_VALUE to the code you just generated in the previous step
- Set the Consumer Key and Consumer Secret to what you saved out of your connected App
- Use the Callback URL as created in the App.
- Submit the API Call – if successful, you will see a response that will contain the Refresh Token
