Connect Salesforce DX to ECA

Give ECA governed access to Salesforce DX through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.

Set up

Add Salesforce DX to ECA in four steps

Admins approve the server once. Everyone in ECA then gets it through the same governed connection.

  1. 1

    Approve Salesforce DX in Runlayer

    Add Salesforce DX from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.

  2. 2

    Connect ECA to Runlayer

    Install the Runlayer CLI so ECA can reach Salesforce DX, which runs on the user’s machine.

  3. 3

    Sign in to Salesforce DX

    Sign in the way Salesforce DX requires. Runlayer holds the credentials so they stay out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Salesforce DX from ECA

    Salesforce DX’s approved tools appear in ECA. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.

Tools

Salesforce DX tools in ECA

Salesforce DX reports its tools when your organization connects it, so the list depends on your deployment.

Control

What Runlayer can see and stop in ECA

Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what ECA exposes to Runlayer.

  • Gateway policy (available)

    Every Salesforce DX call from ECA passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.

  • Audit trail (available)

    Each call is recorded with the user, ECA as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.

  • Native enforcement adapter (not available)

    Runlayer has no device-side adapter for ECA yet, so control happens at the gateway.
