Salesforce has introduced a new Integration User license in March 2023, aimed at simplifying and streamlining integration for organizations that rely on external systems to complement their Salesforce CRM. This new license has been designed to provide organizations with an easier and more cost-effective way to manage their integrations and to ensure that their external systems are seamlessly integrated with Salesforce.
What is an Integration User License?
Salesforce Integration User License is a specialized license type designed specifically for use with Salesforce’s various integration tools. It provides users with limited access to the Salesforce platform, allowing them to perform specific tasks, such as syncing data between Salesforce and external systems.
Salesforce will give 5 free Salesforce Integration User Licenses per org, and any additional licenses are available at $10 each. This is available in Enterprise, Unlimited, and Performance orgs. One Salesforce Integration license is available in the Developer org.
With the Integration User License, users are able to access the Salesforce API and perform integrations, without the need for a full Salesforce license. This makes it an ideal solution for organizations that have dedicated integration teams, who need to access Salesforce data, but do not need full access to the platform.
