salesforce hands-on

Quick actions are not supported yet by LWC as per salesforce documents . As a workaround we need to create a container Lightning aura component and add the LWC components to it and the Lightning aura component can be added to quick actions. To add lightning component to a quick action go to setup-> Object manager -> Object -> Buttons & Actions and add the lightning component. The component should have the force:lightningQuickActionWithoutHeader interface LogACall.cmp <aura:component implements="force:lightningQuickActionWithoutHeader,force:hasRecordId" access="global">     <c:LogaCall_LWC recordId="{!v.recordId}" onsave ="{!c.saveFromLWC}"/> </aura:component> LogACall.js ({ saveFromLWC : function(component, event, helper) {          $A.get('e.force:refreshView').fire(); } }) The lightning aura component will call the LWC component and also we are passing a custom even from LWC compone...

As you guys know the wrapper class concept in visualforce pages , we generally use it to create a data-table which fetches data from different objects or if we want to redirect user to some other page on click of a link as one of the column of data-table.        For example we want a column "Account Name" on the data-table which is a link and once user clicks it should redirect respective account record. Or , suppose we want to display a column with some images or icons as a visual indicator Or what not. These requirements require us to use a wrapper on the lighting data-table (lightning:datatable) I am going to use my previous account search example ( Account Search Lightning Component ) and explain the use of wrapper. AccountSearchWrapper.app <aura:application extends="force:slds" access="global" >     <c:AccountSearchWrapper /> </aura:application> AccountSearchWrapper.cmp <aura:component controller="...

In order to dynamically populate values in lightning:combobox using javascript we can create a list variable and push the values. We also require the values like ids associated to the particular option for back-end logic. For example  : If we want to show the list of contacts using lightning:combobox component where the option should display the contact name but the value should be the contact id which will be used for back-end logic For this we can create a temporary Map variable in our lightning component and set the value and label parameters of the lightning:combobox. Here is the code for this component Combo.app <aura:application extends="force:slds" access="global" description="Lightning Combo Demo"> <c:Combo_Cmpt/> </aura:application> Combo_Cmpt.cmp <aura:component implements="flexipage:availableForAllPageTypes" access="global" controller="ComboController"> <!-- ...

This post briefly covers the different pricing models which Salesforce CPQ has currently :- 1. Discount Schedule It has two types :-     a> Slab     b> Range Steps to implement :- - Create a discount schedule record , select slab or Range as type and Percent/Amount as discount unit. - Create discount tiers with the unit range. Tier Name  Lower Boundary Upper Boundary Discount(%) 1-10 Units 1 11 0 11-20 Units 11 21 5 21-30 Units 21 31 10 30+ Units 31 41 15  - Add this discount schedule to the Product you want to apply the pricing. Calculation :- if Type = Slab , List price = $100 and Quantity = 11 Total Price = Tier 1 Quantity * List Price * (1- Disc.%) + Tier 2 Quantity * List Price * (1- Disc. %)                   =  10 * 100 * (1-0)  + 1* 100 * (1-0.05)          ...

Have you ever came across a requirement to upload files to Salesforce feed from external system? If yes , here is a step by step approach to implement this use case. With lightning roll out Salesforce is converting attachments to files. Any attachment added also creates a file. Both files and attachment  are in sync , if you add/delete a record in file it will add/delete a attachment and vice versa. Gone those days when you couldn't  attach an attachment having size more than 5MB. With Files you have got the option to upload / attach a file up to 2 GB. In order to upload files from external system , we can use the Salesforce connector which is exposed using Enterprise WSDL and directly upload to Attachment records , which in turn creates a file record. In order to test it , you need to install cURL command prompt like CYGWIN Terminal. Here is the link to download it. Use these steps to test the flow using cURL. Step 1: Login using OAuth.(Create a connected ap...

If you need to process a file like images to some third party system using HTTP request in Apex , we need the Multipart/Form-data processing in the HTTP request. In this example I am using salesforce chatter Rest API to fetch the content of a file and then passing that file content to the HTTP request. This is just a sample code , you will have to enter the authorization tokens and endpoints. Please note that processing files /Attachments using this may cause heap size governor limit also it counts against your daily limit of outbound webservice (HTTP) calls.  1.Fetch File Content From Salesforce  Blob bodyBlob = null;  HTTPRequest req = new HTTPRequest();  req.setEndpoint('<YourInstance>/services/data/v43.0/connect/files/ fileId /content');  req.setMethod('GET');  req.setHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer  <Set oAuth Token>');  Http http = new Http();  HTTPResponse res = http.send(req);  bodyBlob = blob.valueO...
