Usage

For ISV Partners you can specify your client_id in a configuration block which will get included in the CallOptions header of every request.

# config/initializers/soapforce.rb
# This is your ISV Partner Client ID.
# It needs to be whitelisted to enable SOAP requests in Professional and Group Editions.
Soapforce.configure do |config|
  config.client_id     = "ParterName/SomeValue/"
end
