Re-authorize your Salesforce account

When to use this guide: Use this guide when expected sync behavior is missing, delayed, or incorrect — especially after disconnecting Salesforce and trying to reconnect.

If you disconnected Salesforce and need to reconnect, or sync is failing with a token error, delete the existing connection in OutboundSync and set it up again with your Connected App credentials.

You may need to reconnect if OutboundSync reports:

Is not valid user tokens.

This error means the Salesforce connection no longer has valid tokens — often after a disconnect or an incomplete reconnect.

For BAD_REFRESH_TOKEN errors, see Getting a Bad Refresh Token error.

  1. Log in to OutboundSync.
  2. Go to Connected Accounts → Salesforce.
  3. Delete the existing Salesforce connection. If you already tried reconnecting and are stuck in a loop, fully delete the connection before trying again.
  4. Re-enter your Connected App Consumer Key, Consumer Secret, and Salesforce domain (for example, https://yourcompany.my.salesforce.com).
  5. Click Create, then click Connect and complete the Salesforce sign-in flow. Select Allow on the permissions screen.

For where to find your Consumer Key, Consumer Secret, and domain — and screenshots of each step — see Connect app in OutboundSync in the Salesforce setup guide.

OutboundSync may redirect you back to Connected Accounts without showing a clear connected confirmation. If you are unsure whether the reconnect worked, contact service@outboundsync.com with your OutboundSync account email and Salesforce domain. Our team can verify the connection on our end.
