Working with Desktop Client Access in the Enhanced Profile<br />

User Interface<br />

Option<br />

On, no updates<br />

On, updates w/o alerts<br />

On, updates w/alerts<br />

On, must update w/alerts<br />

Meaning<br />

The respective client download page in users’ personal settings is hidden. Users<br />

can log in from the client but can't upgrade it from their current version.<br />

Users can download, log in from, and upgrade the client, but don't see alerts<br />

when a new version is made available.<br />

Users can download, log in from, and upgrade the client. They can see update<br />

alerts, and can follow or ignore them.<br />

Users can download, log in from, and upgrade the client. When a new version<br />

is available, they can see an update alert. They can't log in from the client until<br />

they have upgraded it.<br />

Connect Offline is the only client available with Developer Edition. In Personal, Group, and Professional Editions, all users have the system<br />

default “On, updates w/o alerts” for all clients.<br />

Note:<br />

• Desktop client access is available only for users whose profiles have the “API Enabled” permission.<br />

• If users in your organization have a Connect for Outlook version earlier than 2.0 (such as version 115), and their profile setting<br />

is “Off (access denied)” or “On, must update w/alerts,” the error Invalid Salesforce API request may occur<br />

when they attempt to log in to Connect for Outlook. Users with Connect for Outlook 2.0 or later will see an appropriate<br />

descriptive message.<br />

If users can see alerts and they have logged in to Salesforce from the client in the past, an alert banner automatically appears in the<br />

Home tab when a new version is available. Clicking the banner opens the Check for Updates page, where users can download and run<br />

installer files. From their personal settings, users can also access the Check for Updates page, regardless of whether an alert has occurred.<br />

Working with Desktop Client Access in the Enhanced Profile User Interface<br />

Connect for Outlook, Connect Offline, Connect for Office, and Connect for Lotus Notes are desktop<br />

clients that integrate Salesforce with your PC. As an administrator, you can control which desktop<br />

clients your users can access as well as whether users are automatically notified when updates are<br />

available.<br />

Note: To access desktop clients, users must also have the “API Enabled” permission.<br />

On the Desktop Client Access page in the enhanced profile user interface, you can:<br />

• Change the desktop client access settings by clicking Edit<br />

• Search for an object, permission, or setting<br />

• Clone the profile<br />

• If it's a custom profile, delete the profile by clicking Delete<br />

• Change the profile name or description by clicking Edit Properties<br />

• Go to the profile overview page by clicking Profile Overview<br />

• Switch to a different settings page by clicking the down arrow next to the Desktop Client Access<br />

name and selecting the page you want<br />
