# Using Anypoint Studio to Configure Salesforce Composite Connector 2.19
Anypoint Studio (Studio) editors help you design and update your Mule applications, properties, and configuration files.
To add and configure a connector in Studio:
  1. Create a Mule project.
  2. Add the connector to your Mule project.
  3. Configure an input source for the connector’s flow.
  4. Add a connector operation to the flow.
  5. Configure a global element for the connector.


When you run the connector, you can view the app log to check for problems, as described in View the App Log.
If you are new to configuring connectors in Studio, see Using Anypoint Studio to Configure a Connector. If, after reading this topic, you need additional information about the connector fields, see the Salesforce Composite Reference.
## Create a Mule Project
In Studio, create a new Mule project in which to add and configure the connector:
  1. Select **File > New > Mule Project**.
  2. Enter a name for your Mule project and click **Finish**.


## Add the Connector to Your Mule Project
Add Salesforce Composite Connector to your Mule project to automatically populate the XML code with the connector’s namespace and schema location and add the required dependencies to the project’s `pom.xml` file:
  1. In the **Mule Palette** view, click **(X) Search in Exchange**.
  2. In **Add Modules to Project** , type `salesforce composite` in the search field.
  3. Click **Salesforce Composite** in **Available modules**.
  4. Click **Add**.
  5. Click **Finish**.


Adding a connector to a Mule project in Studio does not make that connector available to other projects in your Studio workspace.
## Configure a Source
A source initiates a flow when a specified condition is met. You can configure one of these sources to use with Salesforce Composite Connector:
  * HTTP **Listener** Initiates a flow each time it receives a request on the configured host and port
  * **Scheduler** Initiates a flow when a time-based condition is met


For example, to configure an HTTP listener, follow these steps:
  1. In the **Mule Palette** view, select **HTTP > Listener**.
  2. Drag **Listener** to the Studio canvas.
  3. On the **Listener** configuration screen, optionally change the value of the **Display Name** field.
  4. Specify a value for the **Path** field.
  5. Click the plus sign (+) next to **Connector configuration** to configure a global element that can be used by all instances of HTTP Listener in the app.
  6. On the **General** tab, specify connection information for the connector.
  7. On the **TLS** tab, optionally specify the TLS information for the connector.
  8. On the **Advanced** tab, optionally specify reconnection information, including a reconnection strategy.
  9. Click **Test Connection** to confirm that Mule can connect with the specified server.
  10. Click **OK**.


## Add a Connector Operation to the Flow
When you add a connector operation to your flow, you immediately define a specific operation for that connector to perform.
To add an operation for Salesforce Composite Connector, follow these steps:
  1. In the **Mule Palette** view, select **Salesforce Composite** and then select the desired operation.
  2. Drag the operation onto the Studio canvas to the right of the input source.


## Configure a Global Element for the Connector
When you configure a connector, it’s best to configure a global element that all instances of that connector in the app can use. Configuring a global element requires you to provide the authentication credentials that the connector requires to access the target Salesforce Composite system. Salesforce Composite Connector supports OAuth v2.0, OAuth JWT, OAuth SAML, and OAuth Username and Password.
To configure the global element for Salesforce Composite Connector, follow these steps:
  1. Select the name of the connector in the Studio canvas.
  2. In the configuration screen for the operation, click the plus sign (+) next to the **Connector configuration** field to access the global element configuration fields.
  3. On the **General** tab, in **Connection** , select the authentication method to configure:
     * **OAuth v2.0**
     * **OAuth JWT**
     * **OAuth SAML**
     *      * **Token Connection**
You can reference a configuration file that contains ANT-style property placeholders (recommended), or you can enter your authorization credentials in the global configuration properties. For information about the benefits of using property placeholders and how to configure them, see Anypoint Connector Configuration.
  4. On the **Advanced** tab, optionally specify reconnection information, including a reconnection strategy.
  5. Click **Test Connection** to confirm that Mule can connect with the specified server.
  6. Click **OK**.
  7. On the **Advanced** tab, optionally specify reconnection information, including a reconnection strategy.
  8. Click **Test Connection** to confirm that Mule can connect with the specified server.
  9. Click **OK**.


### OAuth Username and Password
Enter the following information on the **General** tab of the **Global Element Properties** screen to configure Basic authentication:
  * Consumer Key The consumer key for the Salesforce connected app
  * Consumer Secret The consumer secret for the connector to access Salesforce
  * Username The Salesforce username
  * Password The corresponding password
    * Security Token The corresponding security token
Figure 1. The basic authentication includes a consumer key, consumer secret, username, and password.


## View the App Log
To check for problems, you can view the app log as follows:
  * If you’re running the app from Anypoint Platform, the app log output is visible in the Anypoint Studio console window.
  * If you’re running the app using Mule from the command line, the app log output is visible in your OS console.


Unless the log file path is customized in the app’s log file (`log4j2.xml`), you can also view the app log in the default location `MULE_HOME/logs/<app-name>.log`. You can configure the location of the log path in the app log file `log4j2.xml`.
## Next Step
After you configure a global element and connection information, configure the other fields for the connector. See Examples for use cases.
