Connect to Sliick Cloud Storage

Connecting takes two prerequisites and a button. There are no tokens, client IDs or secrets to enter.

Before you connect

1. Assign the base permission sets. Anyone who will upload, download or delete files, administrators included, needs Sliick Files User. See Install and permission sets.
2. Set up the Integration User. Connecting registers your org with Sliick, and that registration runs as this user. See Set up the Integration User.

Unlike the bring-your-own-storage providers, there is no Setup page to edit and no external credential grant to add on a permission set of your own.

Connect

1. Open the Sliick Admin app from the App Launcher and go to the Storage Settings tab.
2. Under Storage Provider, select Sliick Cloud Storage.
3. In Integration User, enter the username of the dedicated user you set up. It pre-fills if you have connected before, and you only re-enter it to change it.
4. Click Connect.

Check it worked

The Storage Settings panel should show Connected - Sliick Cloud Storage with a provisioning status of Active.

Then upload a test file from a record’s file list, confirm it appears, and delete it again.

If a connection attempt fails

The panel shows the error and a Connect button. Click Connect again to retry: there is no separate retry or reconnect flow. Retrying is safe, because setting up your org again does not create a second key, it re-delivers the one you already have.

For specific error messages, see Troubleshooting.
