I've been following a tutorial from: http://wiki.developerforce.com/page/Accessing_Salesforce_Data_From_Ruby
But, I'm stuck with the part where you need to supply the keys:
host: login.salesforce.com # Use test.salesforce.com for sandbox
client_secret: 1234567890 # This is the Consumer Secret from Salesforce
client_id: somebigidthinghere # This is the Consumer Key from Salesforce
sobject_module: SFDC_Models # See below for details on using modules
debugging: true # Can be useful while developing
username: [email protected]
password: mypasswordplusmysecuritytoken
Where can I get the client_secret
and client_id
. The tutorial from the official API site of Salesforce is kind of outdated. http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api_rest/index.htm
And some other tutorials didn't even mention where to exactly get it.
I already created an account in http://developer.force.com/
And even created a custom app, correct me if I'm wrong.
Then don't know where to find the keys that I need.
Any workarounds will be appreciated.
The Client ID and Client Secret are found in the Admin > LaunchPoint menu by selecting the custom service, and clicking View Details. The Identity URL is found in the Admin > Web Services menu in the REST API section. access_token – The token that you pass with subsequent calls to authenticate with the target instance.
When you log in to developer.force.com, In the left nav
Build ->
Create ->
Apps
The bottom of that page has "Connected Apps". Click "New" to add the app you created. You'll set your callback URL, description etc. Once you hit save you'll see your consumer id and secret.
The structure of the salesforce admin panel has changed slightly since this question was answered. Here is how you now access the screen referred to in the answer by trh:
