Veeam Backup for Salesforce • Connected App - adding second Salesforce organization

Hi,

I have used other vendors to backup salesforce and the behavior is that for every salesforce organization that is to be backed-up, a connected app has to be created in that salesforce org and that has to be configured in the backup solution to run the backup policy.

I'm using Veeam backup for salesforce for the first time. The initial configuration, along with separate installation of Postgres SQL along with database creation done separately and then used within Veeam worked fine. The initial configuration wizard completed fine with adding the salesforce connected app. The backup too ran fine, backing up close to 900 GB of data.

Now, my client also has a second salesforce organization. I want to use this same setup. As I check the Adding Organization page in the UI, I see the only option of Log in with Salesforce account. Documentation link - https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... tml?ver=20
According to Veeam documentation, when I will click on login link, I will be redirected to salesforce authentication webpage, and then I need to enter credentials of a salesforce user of the second salesforce organization that I want to add.
Is this correct? Don't I need to provide the connected app details, along with tokens for the second organization?
Is it just sufficient to use the salesforce user from the second organization to login and then I can backup that organization?

This is confusing to me, because as mentioned above, I was thinking that for each Organization to be protected, a connected app is required.

Can someone please check?

Thanks,
-Sumeet.
