# Create a Salesforce Connected App
To connect your backup service to Salesforce, you need to create a Salesforce Connected App. This app acts as a secure link between your service and Salesforce. 
This guide is based on the [Veeam documentation](https://www.veeam.com/kb4240).

To connect your backup service to Salesforce, please follow these steps:

1. [Log in to your Salesforce account](https://login.salesforce.com/lightning/setup/NavigationMenus/home) using your admin credentials.
2. Click "New Connected App" in the top right corner of the App Manager.
