Question
Can I connect to Salesforce with an API-only user?
Environment
Connector: Salesforce
Answer
Yes, you can connect with an API-only user as long as they are authorized and have the required permissions to access your data.
Cause
Fivetran uses the http://login.salesforce.com API endpoint to log in to Salesforce using a username and password. Provided the user is able to log in via this endpoint and access the data, the connector will work as expected.
