Usage

The Java class below uses the REST API to create a SignupRequest object. It authenticates to the Trialforce Management Organization and then posts a request to the SignupRequest object.

Here are the variables you need to specify in this example.
  • SERVER — The name of the host server for the Trialforce Management Organization (TMO), for example, “yourInstance.salesforce.com.”
  • USERNAME — The admin username for the TMO.
  • PASSWORD — The concatenation of the admin password and the security token for the TMO. To get an email with the security token, from your personal settings in Salesforce select Reset My Security Token and click Reset Security Token.  
  • CLIENT_ID — From Setup in Salesforce, enter Apps in the Quick Find box, select Apps, and click New under Connected Apps. Enter values for the required fields (the Callback URL is required but can initially be set to any valid URL as it's not used), grant full access for the OAuth scopes in the "Selected OAuth Scopes" selector, and click Save. Then copy the value of “Consumer Key” and use it for this variable.
  • CLIENT_SECRET — On the same page, click Click to reveal. Then copy the value of "Consumer Secret" and use it for this variable.
