A few things I learned while connecting Claude to Salesforce Hosted MCP
Setting up a Salesforce Hosted MCP Server with Claude turned out pretty simple once the OAuth settings made sense. Key takeaways: mcp_api gives the client access to Hosted MCP, refresh_token/offline_access keeps the connection alive, JWT just changes the access-token format (no extra permissions), "named user" means Claude acts with the permissions of whoever authorized it, and the callback URL needs to match exactly. A full walkthrough got made since some of the terms took a while to figure out - shared here in case it saves someone else a few tabs and a confused Google search: https://youtu.be/_Mm2f9L-SQU
