Salesforce OAuth Password Provider

Provides password-based Salesforce OAuth authentication.

You can use the username-password flow to authorize a client via a connected app that already has the user’s credentials. However, we recommend avoiding this flow because it passes credentials back and forth. Use it only if there’s a high degree of trust between the resource owner and the client, the client is a first-party app, Salesforce is hosting the data, and other grant types aren’t available. In these cases, set user permissions to minimize access and protect stored credentials from unauthorized access.
