onstate.nkeeney API Access on Professional accounts - what's allowed?
Hello,
We're developing a small App for the AppExchange which will enable our third-party software to interact with the SF API. We have it working fine in our developer account, but when we deployed it via AppExchange to our organization's SF for beta testing, we found that the Professional accounts do not allow API access. (we use the API via Ajax within a Custom S-Control, and also via the external Partner WSDL from our own web servers). A majority of our customers are likely to have Professional accounts with Salesforce. My question is, what API access is allowed for Professional users?
Do we really have to tell our customers they have to upgrade to a prohibitively expensive Enterprise account just to use our little integration App? Why would there be so much developer focus on Ajax and other API-access platforms if a majority of the SalesForce customers are unable to run such apps?
Can anyone point me in the direction of documentation on the different licensing types and exactly what scripting/applications are allowed for each? Thanks.
