Overview

Object representing an individual user account’s logon credentials.

This object represents information about a user account necessary to authenticate and reauthenticate against Salesforce.com servers using OAuth2. It includes information such as the user’s account ID, the protocol to use, and any session or refresh tokens assigned by the server.

The secure information contained in this object is persisted securely within the device’s Keychain, and is accessed by using the identifier property.

Instances of this object are used to begin the authentication process, by supplying it to an SFOAuthCoordinator instance which conducts the authentication workflow.

The credentials stored in this object include:

  • Consumer key and secret

  • Request token and secret

  • Access token and secret
