Request Service Order Credentials for the Channel Order App

Before you connect the Channel Order App (COA) to Salesforce, request service order credentials on Salesforce Help. Your credentials consist of a unique username, API key, and activation code. You provide these credentials in the COA to establish a connection to Salesforce.

User Permissions Needed

Service order credentials expire after 24 hours. To avoid issues connecting to Salesforce, finish the COA setup process soon after you receive your credentials.
