Please note – This content was previously posted on the audit9.com site directly and is re-published here as part of the consolidation of 2 blogs. This post provides an overview of the various environments involved in delivering ISV solutions to the Salesforce AppExchange. As will be obvious to architects working outside of the ISV domain, […]
As I’ve previously stated the combination of Process Builder and Apex Actions is incredibly powerful. This short post adds the answer to a frequently asked question; how many times is the InvocableMethod called when records are modified in bulk? To answer this with an example. With default batch settings (200 records) and 201 modified records […]
Once again regretfully it’s time to start talking about Winter; the Winter ’17 (v38.0) release that is. This (pre-Dreamforce ’16) release sees the return of a snowman logo (last seen in Winter ’10) – albeit rather glum looking on this occasion – despite the animated wink ;-); perhaps Dreamforce ’16 will cheer him/her up. The new release […]
This post provides a code example for a multi-purpose Visualforce page that dynamically switches between Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience (LEX) views based on the detected user setting. At some future stage (perhaps Dreamforce ’16 will enlighten us here) the platform will likely provide support for auto-conversion of legacy Visualforce assets to the new Lightning […]

Production orgs will be auto-activated on the 4th March 2017. Inbound API connections requesting TLS 1.0 will receive the error message “TLS 1.0 has […]

Sporting a cheery (but perhaps more Autumnal than Summer) fireworks logo, the new release is available now for partner preview. The release notes are generally available here. The Summer ’16 sandbox preview starts early May (7th/8th), with production orgs being upgraded […]
There’s no better way to kick-start the New Year than to indulge in a bit of release-note exploration for the upcoming Spring release. This exercise is best performed with the latest release notes to hand, a brand new pre-release org to play with and the previous release certification exams safely completed. The links below are […]
A technical best practice in the Salesforce domain is to employ Apex code predominantly as an enabler for the declarative platform capabilities. This light-touch approach is simple in concept; the minimum amount of Apex code necessary is introduced to enable non-technical build features to solution the functional requirement. In the majority case this works very […]
This video post provides a technical overview of the Platform Cache feature added in the Winter ’16 release.
This post provides a high-level overview of the Winter ’16 enhancements to the Custom Metadata Types platform capability. Custom Metadata Types – The App Configuration Engine for Force.com There are in my view two distinct ways to consider Custom Metadata Types (CMT); firstly as analogous to Custom Settings and secondly as an architecturally significant paradigm […]
