Admin Overview

The Admin section is your control room for Forge. Here you configure payment gateways, define which Salesforce objects Forge surfaces, control field visibility, manage users and their permission profiles, and access platform-level logs and audit records.

Who can access Admin

Admin pages require the Forge system administrator profile (or an equivalent profile with the Admin permission granted). Individual sections can be locked to specific profiles — for example, you might allow a finance manager to view payment gateways without granting full Admin access.

Changes made in Admin apply across your entire Forge org, not just a single event. Test configuration changes in a sandbox org before applying them to production.
