Pardot user-id/pwd auth deprecation on new releases as of Feb 1, 2021

[skpadgett]

I'm researching options for using Pardot API, (most likely via Python), and looking at Ruby and Java wrappers for guidance on how the requirement to use Salesforce Auth (for Pardot API releases after 2/1/2021) has been addressed - it hasn't for the Python wrapper. I just took a quick look here at the open/resolved issues, and don't see that the functionality has been added here. Am I wrong?

I can't speak for any plans around this ruby library, but since you mentioned looking at Java libraries, this one was updated to support Salesforce Auth.

Any update on this issue?

We use this official wrapper to support our integration and are growing concerned we might need to rethink said integration if it is no longer maintained or supported with the new authentication scheme.

Totally agree with @dummied

@jpearson-sfdc Is this library unsupported or will it be updated to handle the auth changes?

Hi all, we're going to be making updates to the library to support Salesforce OAuth around February. The new auth scheme will likely require users to input an access token generated from Salesforce. The date for API enforcement has been pushed back to 6/15 to allow time for people to upgrade. Hope this helps!

Beyond that, we'll be looking at turning these libraries over to community support only.

@adelawalla great news. To be clear, the 6/15 date is the full-enforcement date, right? We'll still start experiencing outages with the current authentication starting on 2/23/2021, right?

[skpadgett]

FYI - For reference, the Salesforce Oauth mod has been implemented on a branch in the Python version of this wrapper. It includes some very useful guidance for Salesforce Connected App configuration required to make this work.

@semanticart Correct

ruby-pardot 1.4.0 was just pushed to rubygems, which contains the changes to allow for Salesforce OAuth. The README shows the new signature and I wrote some sample code in the PR for an example of how it works.

Let me know if you need any more assistance.

Thank you @jpearson-sfdc 🎉

Will this change support version 5 API as well? In the change doc it only mentions version 3 or 4 so just wanted to get a clarification

@yogeshsm - The fix made in PR #53 and v1.4.0 is only to update to use Salesforce OAuth. It does not add new endpoints or modify existing endpoints, including v5 endpoints. Please see the source associated to the PR to see what was changed.

@jpearson-sfdc Thanks a lot for OAuth update! ♥️

[yogeshsm]

Thank you @jpearson-sfdc for response and for the OAuth update 🙏
