How to Connect an Org to Swantide

Step-by-step guide for Salesforce administrators connecting their org to Swantide. Install the managed package via AppExchange, authorize the connection with your admin credentials, and begin metadata ingestion in about 10 minutes.

Written by Engineering Swantide

Connecting Swantide to your Salesforce org takes about 10 minutes. You'll install a managed package and authorize the connection using your Salesforce admin credentials.

Before you start, confirm you have:

  • Salesforce System Administrator access

  • A Swantide org β€” if you don't have one yet, contact your Swantide representative

Want to connect using a dedicated integration user instead of an admin account? See Setting Up a Swantide Integration User.


Step 1: Install the Managed Package

  1. Log in to Swantide at app.swantide.com. You'll see a banner prompting you to connect your org β€” click it to open the onboarding flow. (You can also access this anytime from Profile.)

  2. Specify whether you're connecting a sandbox or production org.

  3. Click Install Package. You'll be redirected to the Salesforce AppExchange installer.

  4. Log in with your Salesforce administrator credentials.

  5. Select Install for All Users and click Install.

  6. Verify the installation by going to Setup β†’ Installed Packages and confirming the Swantide package appears.


Step 2: Authorize the Connection

  1. Return to the Swantide onboarding flow and click Authorize Connection.

  2. Log in with your Salesforce administrator credentials when prompted.

  3. Once complete, you'll see a confirmation message. Metadata ingestion will begin automatically β€” you can watch components populate in the Documentation tab.
