How do I reset my Heroku External Objects credentials?

Issue

I would like to obtain a new set of credentials for my Heroku External Objects service and update my External Data Source in Salesforce to use them.

Resolution

When you reset your Heroku External Objects credentials, your old credentials will still be available for 10 minutes so that you can update your integrations without incurring downtime.

To reset your Heroku External Objects credentials, do the following:

  1. Locate your connection in the Heroku Connect dashboard, and click on the External Objects tab.
  2. Click on "Reset credentials".
  3. Click "Yes" when prompted to reset the credentials.
  4. Assuming that you have External Objects defined in Salesforce, edit your existing OData 4.0 External Data Source in Salesforce to use the new credentials.
