Step 2. Creating a Connected App

Once you’ve registered your mobile client app with the mobile OS vendor, such as Apple or Google, for push capability, the next step is to create a connected app in Salesforce.
Connected Apps can be created in: Group, Professional, Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer Editions

Connected Apps can be installed in: All Editions

User Permissions Needed
To read: “Customize Application”
To create, update, or delete: “Customize Application” AND either

“Modify All Data” OR “Manage Connected Apps”
To update all fields except Profiles, Permission Sets, and Service Provider SAML Attributes: “Customize Application”
To update Profiles, Permission Sets, and Service Provider SAML Attributes: “Customize Application” AND “Modify All Data”
To uninstall: “Download AppExchange Packages”

The connected app enables you to provide the registration certificate or token of your mobile client app so that Salesforce can send push notifications. Also, the connected app provides the unique API name that identifies the mobile app to send notifications to.
