To use the Salesforce API, your organization must use one of the following editions (where the API is enabled by default):

  • Enterprise Edition
  • Unlimited Edition
  • Developer Edition
  • Performance Edition

For Professional Edition organizations, API access must be purchased and can be processed by contacting an account executive.
