Follow these steps to request access.
1. Login to your Partner Dashboard > Apps, and select your app.
2. From the sidebar, click App setup.
3. Find Protected customer data access and click Request access.
4. Select Protected customer data, provide your reasons for using it, and click Save.
5. If your app needs access to protected customer fields, then select the relevant fields, provide your reasons for using them, and click Save.
6. Complete your Data protection details, making sure that your app meets the protected customer data requirements.
7. Click Submit for review.
Before you upgrade the API version to the recent version, make sure your customer protected data request is approved.
