We are excited to announce a new feature that enhances how you can connect your Salesforce org with dx0. In addition to the classic connected app, you now have the option to use an External Client App, delivered as the dx0 managed package installed directly in your Salesforce org.
Both connection methods offer unique benefits:
1. Connected App: This is the quickest setup option. There's nothing to install, allowing you to connect immediately.
2. External Client App: This option provides more security controls. Since the app is installed within your org, your administrators can manage it directly in Setup. They can control which users have access, set IP relaxation, and manage refresh-token and session policies. Uninstalling the package will immediately cut off dx0's access. This method also avoids the need for the "Approve Uninstalled Connected Apps" permission that might be required when dx0 hasn't been authorized in the org before.
Both methods provide dx0 with the same level of access, which remains read-only. The choice is about who controls the connection and how tightly, not about what dx0 can access.
We hope this new feature provides you with greater flexibility and control over your Salesforce connections with dx0.
