Add custom Salesforce connection type #8766
Description
Description
Airflow has SalesforceHook but it doesn't have a defined connection.
In order to create a Connection one must expose it's secret token as text :
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53510980/salesforce-connection-using-apache-airflow-ui
Also it's not very intuitive that the Conn Type should remain blank.
It would be easier and also user friendly if there will be salesforce connection in the UI which has a security_token field that is encrypted.

That's true. At least there should be a
howtodocs guide on how to set up the connection properly.kaxil commentedon Jul 15, 2020
That can be a good first-issue to add docs :) what to create that issue @feluelle ?
feluelle commentedon Jul 28, 2020
Sure! I am creating one.

@gtossou -> Just FYI, We just merged the first of the series of "auto-discovery" of Provider's capabilities, And we have defined a way how Providers can expose such connections to the Airflow Core (just in time for 2.0).
The most important (connection type discovery) is here 2037303
But few more are coming (see in progress items here: https://github.com/apache/airflow/projects/5)
I will soon also add a description on the "Discovering provider capabilities" (Connection Types, Connection Forms, Extra Links for now). Just wanted to you to be aware that this are is still going through some latest refinements before 2.0 release.
