In this post, we will see how we can implement salesforce login with flex.

All you need is:

• The Adobe Flex Builder or Flex SDK

• The Flex Toolkit for Force.com (beta)
• Salesforce login credentials

For the beginner steps for integration of flex toolkit for salesforce you can follow the steps given in below site

http://wiki.developerforce.com/index.php/Tutorial:_Creating_Flex_Salesforce_Mashups

While regarding the login method I will be describing as follows:

The namespaces to be included in flex builder for login are as follows:

The Login function will be as follows:

There is a common error while implementing login with salesforce, it will generate following error:

Solution

The Flex security model will require that you are running this on https server, unless you specify “http” using connection.protocol();
If your server is not HTTPS, but is HTTP, you can set that on the connection.

In addition, you will need to pass a security token appended to your password unless you have enabled the IP range in your network configuration.

Both will generate the io error you see.

If you are using “HTTPS” then you have to specify

connectionprotocol = “https”

And make sure that in salesforce.com by default “Require secure connections (https)” is checked

But if you are using “http”, then you have to specify

connectionprotocol = “http”;

And make sure that in salesforce.com by default “Require secure connections (https)” is checked to false.
