Increasing security

The user installing and connecting S-Drive in the portal must have Modify All Data and Customize Application permissions. This is typically an Admin user.

Once connected, those permissions can be removed from the user that connected your org in the portal. Removing the permissions gives added security.

However, our payment calculation job needs to be run by a user with those permissions. To remove permissions from the portal user while still allowing the payment calculation job to run, follow these steps:

  1. Install S-Drive and connect the org in the portal as described above with a user having Modify All Data and Customize Application permissions. Call this UserA

  2. Login to Salesforce with UserB. User B needs to have Modify All Data and Customize Application permissions. This is typically an Admin User.

  3. Go to S-Drive Configuration General Settings tab and scroll down to Other Settings

  4. Click the Reschedule button

  5. Now edit the profile for UserA and remove Modify All Data and Customize Application permissions. Make sure UserA still has the necessary permissions to send outbound messages and has CRUD permissions to all S-Drive objects

Congratulations! You are now ready to configure S-Drive to suit your needs.
