    C, becouse it needs to export only a specific columns.  

    Data export is a copy of all data for the object.

    Please add the custom field into the search layout for product items, then it should be possible to search by using this values I mean.

    • Lookup auto-completion doesn’t work for user lookups with other dropdown lists. Auto-completion is primarily for organizations that have set up either a partner portal or customer portal.

    Please check the below article:

Hi all,

 

I have a requirement where we are integrating Salesforce with an external system. It is a 1-way communication where SF will use their API to pull in the necessary data. For authorization purpose they are using oAuth 2.0 Client Credentials with certificate (Microsoft oAuth link). They have provided us with the following information

1. Client ID

2. Tenant ID

3. .pfx certificate

4. Token Endpoint

5. scope

6. app endpoint.

 

I have tried a couple of ways using named credentials, but not able to establish the connection.

 

I would highly appreciate any help here on how to achieve this using salesforce. 

Thank you,

Aiswarya

    Steps taken so far:

    1. Converted .pfx certificate into JKS keystore file using openssl as pfx file format is not compatible with salesforce

    2. Uploaded the certificate into the client and key management setup

    3. Created an external credential with authentication protocol type as Client credentials with JWT assertion.

    4. Configured the JWT claims.

    5. Created a named credential and linked it with the external credential.

    6. Apex code snippet to test the connection.

    7. The response received was status code = 403 which indicates the credentials we are sending are wrong.

     

    Microsoft requires the following information in request body to authenticate.

    1. Client_assertion_type : available

    2. Grant_type - available

    3. Client_assertion - NOT AVAILABLE

    4. Scope - available

    5. Tenant - available

    6. Client_id - available

     

    The main questions are:

    1. does Salesforce generate the client_assertion and send it in the request or do we need to generate it?

    2. If we need to generate, what is the way to do this in Salesforce or Apex?

So, I create a custom object called Form Submissions which currently has a lookup relationship with the Lead object. This relationship occurs automatically through the integration I created between Gravity Forms and Salesforce.

 

However, I'm struggling to figure out how to carry the relationship forward to Account and Contact objects when the Lead is converted. I'd like end-users to be able to see related Form Submissions when they view a Contact or an Account.

 

This is what the Form Submission object page looks like right now. I want those 2 lookup fields to populate automatically when the lead converts. I'm thinking maybe a Flow, but I'm not sure about the logic?

 

Any suggestions or best practices to achieve this?

 

Thanks in advance!

How can I automatically have an Object which is related to a Lead, create a lookup relationship with Account and Contact after Lead conversion?

    Hi,

     

    You would need a record triggered flow on Leads that triggers on conversion.

    Add an Update record element to update the Form Submission record where Lead__c equals $Record.Id. You can now update the Accoutn and Contact lookups with 

    $Record.ConvertedAccountId and $Record.ConvertedContactId
