# Connecting Salesforce

Depending on your needs, you may want to connect one or more orgs (instances) and/or one or more Git repositories. 

**Saleforce cloud support**

Quality Clouds supports all Salesforce clouds which use the metadata API, that is:

- Marketing
- Service
- Sales
- [Force.com](http://force.com/)

## Connecting orgs

Connect orgs if you want to scan all your environments, including production. 

→ To connect an org

1. [Create a connected app](https://qualityclouds.com/documentation/docs/qc/connecting-salesforce/creating-a-connected-app-in-salesforce/) - configure the instance to control which data can be scanned by Quality Clouds.
2. [Set up Salesforce orgs](https://qualityclouds.com/documentation/docs/qc/connecting-salesforce/setting-up-salesforce-orgs/) - define which instance to scan, and launch the first scan.
3. [Test connectivity.](https://qualityclouds.com/documentation/docs/qc/connecting-salesforce/testing-connectivity/)

## Connecting Git repositories

Connect Git repositories, if you want to scan your development and integration environments. You can also scan selected branches, using our Feature Branch. 

→ To connect a Git repository

1. [Set up Salesforce Git repositories](https://qualityclouds.com/documentation/docs/qc/connecting-salesforce/setting-up-salesforce-git-repositories/).
2. [Test connectivity](https://qualityclouds.com/documentation/docs/qc/connecting-salesforce/testing-connectivity/).
