Admin
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 Admin role. Forge roles work alongside your Salesforce permission sets — see the Permissions page for how the two relate. Some Admin actions, such as connecting a payment gateway, additionally require a Salesforce permission set like Blackthorn Payments Admin.
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.
