Connected app-- limit access to only certain records

Hello, we want to create a connected app to allow api access to our Salesforce org. However we only want to be able to give the connected app access to very specific records (e.g. where the accountid = a specific account id). Is that possible?

Hi Michael,

As per my understanding,  We cannot restrict access to certain records using connected app.  However you can restrict cccess to APIs check below reference.
