Specifies the password to use to connect to your Salesforce instance. A password is required. Contact your system administrator to obtain your password.
Important: Setting the password using a data source is not recommended. The data source persists all properties, including the Password property, in clear text.
Specifies the security token required to make a connection to a Salesforce instance that is configured for a security token.
Note: A security token is not required when Salesforce has been configured for Trusted IP Ranges and the user is logging in from a trusted IP address. Refer to "Set Trusted IP Ranges for Your Organization" in your Salesforce documentation for details.
Note: If setting the security token using a data source, be aware that the SecurityToken property, like all data source properties, is persisted in clear text.

*Production environments: login.salesforce.com
*Sandbox instances: test.salesforce.com
The default is login.salesforce.com.
