Steps to capture Security Token from Salesforce

Once the Consumer Key and Consumer Secret are obtained from the Connected App, we now need to capture the Security token of the user.

Note: When you create a Salesforce account, Salesforce sends an email message from support@salesforce.com with Subject: salesforce.com security token confirmation to the email address associated with the account. This email message contains the Security Token for the account and is the only place where you can find the Security Token value. When you change the account password, the security token is also regenerated (so the previous one expires) and a similar email is sent.

In this case, you must check the Email that you have received from Salesforce Support (support@salesforce.com) and copy the Security Token

Reset Security Token (Only required if you are unable to find the Security Token)

If you are unable to find the Security Token sent by Salesforce team, then you have an option to reset the same by following the below steps:

1. To navigate to Reset Security Token, you need to click on View Profile (top-right hand corner represented by a Avatar) and click Settings

2. Search for Reset My Security Token under Quick Find and click on it

3. Click on Reset Security Token

4. This will send a new security token in your Email

5. Capture the Security Token that you have received.
