How to Create Your StoreConnect User

This article is intended for advanced users and our partners as it requires advanced web development or Salesforce admin or programming knowledge. While the functionality is part of StoreConnect, we do not provide end user assistance to implement it beyond our help documentation. If you need help or are unsure on how to do this, you can hire one of our StoreConnect partners.

This guide provides step-by-step instructions on how to create and configure a StoreConnect integration User account within Salesforce by using the Salesforce Integration License.

This video will guide you on the steps to create a sync user per the instructions above.

Set the Verification Method

Once your sync user is created, make sure to set a password from the Salesforce email you received, after you have set the password a screen saying the changes were saved successfully will show, you will then need to log into Salesforce again with the new password to configure the verification step.

After you have set a password, go to login.salesforce.com and log in once more. If the sync user is required to have MFA, you will be asked to choose a verification method. Select “Use Verification codes from an authenticator app” (Such as Google Authenticator, Authy or Duo).

Choose Verification Method

Currently the Salesforce Authenticator mobile app is not supported by StoreConnect’s Setup Wizard

This verification method is required to ensure the Sync User authenticates when setting up StoreConnect, you will need to log out and then back into your own Salesforce User account again afterwards to re-gain access to the Org.
