Configuration

Model Context Protocol

To use this server with the Model Context Protocol, you need to configure it in your claude_desktop_config.json file. Add the following entry to the mcpServers section:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "salesforce": {
        "command": "uvx",
        "args": [
            "--from",
            "mcp-salesforce-connector",
            "salesforce"
        ],
        "env": {
            "SALESFORCE_ACCESS_TOKEN": "SALESFORCE_ACCESS_TOKEN",
            "SALESFORCE_INSTANCE_URL": "SALESFORCE_INSTANCE_URL",
            "SALESFORCE_DOMAIN": "SALESFORCE_DOMAIN"
            }
        }
    }
}

Note on Salesforce Authentication Methods

This server supports four authentication methods:

• OAuth (Recommended): Set SALESFORCE_ACCESS_TOKEN and SALESFORCE_INSTANCE_URL as environment variables.

• Client Credentials: Set SALESFORCE_CLIENT_ID and SALESFORCE_CLIENT_SECRET for OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials flow. This is useful for server-to-server integrations.

• Salesforce CLI (Default Org): If no OAuth env vars are set, the server will try to use the active Salesforce CLI default org from the current workspace (via sf org display --json or sfdx force:org:display --json). Optionally set SALESFORCE_CLI_TARGET_ORG to target a specific org.

• Username/Password (Legacy): If SALESFORCE_ACCESS_TOKEN and SALESFORCE_INSTANCE_URL are not set, the server will fall back to using SALESFORCE_USERNAME, SALESFORCE_PASSWORD, and SALESFORCE_SECURITY_TOKEN.

Environment Configuration

• SALESFORCE_DOMAIN (Optional): Set to test to connect to a Salesforce sandbox environment. If not set or left empty, the server will connect to the production environment.

• SALESFORCE_CLI_TARGET_ORG (Optional): When using the Salesforce CLI authentication method, set this to target a specific org alias or username instead of the default org.
