Create Bulk Object Fields using Metadata API

The Metadata API allows you to programmatically create, retrieve, update, or delete metadata components, including custom fields. You can use tools like Workbench or Salesforce CLI to interact with the Metadata API, or you can use the below Apex script to automate the field creation process.

#Salesforce  #Custom Fields

Hi, 

We have been using SalesForce for a couple of years and today added a new field for a data entry. This appears on any new page layouts but wanted to retrospectively add data into this field on forms that have already been submitted but is does not appear on these. 

Is there anyway we can add to older forms that have already been submitted. We will manually add the data in but we need the field there to be able to add.

Thanks.

We have noticed that the SOQL queries Agentforce Assistant builds, sometimes truncate the __c at the end of the custom fields' API names so it throws an error response. Recommendation is to add an agent instruction that specifies what to do with custom fields as a workaround but we are hoping it gets solved in the core product. We raised a ticket, but wanted to let the community know so you can apply the same workaround until its fixed

Hi All! I'm wanting to make use of Contracts in Salesforce, but I need to recreate the logic for Contract Start, Term Length (months), and Contract End Date. We're using "Term" instead of Contract, but I can't edit the out of the box field names. 

So the formula I need is based on following fields:

Terms_Start_Date__c + Terms_Length__c = Terms_End_Date__c

Terms_End_Date__c is formula field calculated on save. Its also a number field (4,0). Term Start is Date field; Term End Date is formula/date field. Thanks in advance for any help! Not finding formulas online that are getting this done.

Hi there!

I'm a beginning admin and I work at an assurance company. I've received a requested to put more surveillance on a certain field on the account records: a bank number field. (In case an employee changes the bank account nr to his personal bank nr and commits fraud). They do not trust the entries made by users (no checks) and would like to have a second approver for this particular field entry. 

My first thought was approval processes. But those are used when a record needs approval. Is it possible to use approval processes to approve or decline the first entry/update entry on a single field? It is not needed if all other fields are updated, only this particular field. 

What is the best way to tackle this? Any suggestions on alternatives as well?

Love to hear and learn from you!
