Assign Object Permissions to the Connector User

Because of Salesforce security restrictions, an admin must manually configure your connector user’s permissions for Salesforce standard objects. These objects aren’t covered by the Pardot Connector User permission set. This step applies only to Account Engagement business units with Salesforce connector v1, or business units using Marketing Data Sharing.

Note
Note Pardot is now known as Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. We wish we could snap our fingers to update the name everywhere, but you can expect to see the previous name in a few places until we replace it, including in the app itself.

The Account Engagement connector user needs these permissions for these standard objects. How you apply these permissions is up to you. For more information about permissions, see the User Permissions documentation.
