How Salesforce Admins Should Audit Connected Apps Before Migrating to External Client Apps

With Spring '26, Salesforce disabled the creation of new Connected Apps by default. If your org still runs integrations on them, that is not just a platform update. It is a security signal worth acting on now. Marija Petronijevic, Salesforce Admin and Architect at Rippling and SF Bay Area Architect Community Group Co-Leader, joins host Matt Meyers, Salesforce CTA and CEO of EzProtect, to break down what auditing and migrating to External Client Apps actually requires inside a real org. They walk through the TIME framework (Tolerate, Invest, Migrate, Eliminate) for categorizing every Connected App, why this migration is not a lift and shift, how to build a 30-day and 6-month roadmap, and what to do when vendors have not made the move yet. If you have been putting this off, this session gives you a repeatable framework to start your audit today before the next deprecation deadline forces your hand.
