Import and Export Authentication
The data exchange between Fullcast and Salesforce requires the API integration to be authenticated in our integration layer. This is currently not available from within the Fullcast app. Please contact your implementation team to schedule a call with product support to complete the authentication. This must be completed before you can proceed with the steps below.
Connected App Authentication
The Connected App allows Fullcast to read Salesforce metadata, which enables the ability to manage the data within Fullcast. This authentication process can be completed without contacting product support.
