In this post, we’ll explain all the steps required to connect a Mule application to Salesforce using the Salesforce connector with the OAuth JWT flow. You can also create your own certificate for the OAuth JWT flow with Salesforce or with OpenSSL (signed by a CA or self-signed). Both options are very well explained in the video at the conclusion of the article from Stefano Bernardini, MuleSoft Ambassador.
In this post, we’ll be using a self-signed certificate created by Salesforce but, keep in mind, that for production environments, a certificate issued by a Trusted Certificate Authority is always recommended.
