Allowing Access to the Field Definition Object
April 6, 2026
Certain Salesforce formula fields reference Roll-Up Summary fields. To ensure CaliberMind can successfully sync these values, the integration user requires access to the Field Definition object. Unlike standard objects (e.g., Account or Campaign), this is a Tooling API object that requires specific administrative permissions to be enabled.
Here are the steps for allowing access to the Field Definition object:
- Sign in as a Salesforce Admin
- Review the User List to identify the Profile assigned to the user account used for the CaliberMind SFDC connector
- Head to Setup
- Navigate to Profiles
- Select the profile used for the CaliberMind SFDC Connector
- Scroll to System Permissions
- Ensure the following permissions are enabled:
- API Enabled
- View Setup and Configuration
- View All Data
- Save changes to the profile
