Hi, 

 

I'm the admin for a large government organization that already has multiple apps on the Apple App Store. One of our departments is creating an app with Salesforce Mobile Publisher.  

 

How does Mobile Publisher use the Apple distribution certificate? Does it use an Xcode managed certificate, create its own, or use an existing certificate in the account? 

 

Thank you

I am working on creating my first Launchpad for our Mobile app.  But it's a real pain to find the correct item to add from the list of Available items as they are not listed alphabetically and does not support type to search. 

 

Is there an easier method that I have not discovered?

I have created a screen flow to create a record so that I can launch it from a related list. When using it on Desktop I have no issues. On mobile, on both Android and iOS, when I can click into the lookup screen component and it opens the 'pop-up' where I can search and select values but when I select a value the 'pop-up' doesn't go away and effectively hangs the flow. The only thing I can do is click back, which takes me out of the Flow. The interesting thing is that the value seems to populate on the screen behind the 'pop-up'. 

My Salesforce App is on the new version 230.030.0 on Android. 

Here's an image of the screen where it's hanging. Does anyone have any insights as to what the issue could be here? Thanks.

    Hi everyone, 

     I wanted to share a quick workaround that solved a Flow rendering issue we were experiencing 

    🔍 The issue:

     

    We had a

    Screen Flow designed to create a Case from an Asset

    record. 

    When launching the Flow from the Asset page, it was rendering

    inconsistently (like the image in this post)

    ✅ The fix:

     

    We created a

    new Action Button (Quick Action) of type "Flow", selected our Screen Flow, and added it to the Asset record page using Lightning App Builder.

    Now the Flow launches in a clean modal, passes the recordId correctly, and renders exactly as expected — no layout issues.

Hi everyone, 

 

We've experienced an upgrade in the mobile app, where the mobile tabs and related tabs ui now view like desktop / tablet view as seen below. It's not updated on every object and I've not yet been able to figure out what has triggered a selected number of object record layouts.  

 

If anyone has experienced something similar and knows how to return it to the original view that would be a great help.

I have a global action that I can see fine on the Desktop view. However, after adding it to the correct publisher layout and assigning it to the correct Profile, it still does not show in the Mobile App.

 

Am I looking in the wrong place? is there additional setup that I need to do? 

 

I am using an iPhone and cannot find the global action anywhere.

    I have discovered that there was not anything wrong with the setup. 

     

    The Global Actions are for some reason placed on the Profile page... 

     

    I assumed they would be in the item list, where everything else is, or on the Home Page. 

     

    If you cannot find the Global Actions that you have assigned to your Publisher Layouts, go to the Profile page.

Hey Trailblazers,

I’ve been exploring Salesforce Mobile and trying to enable offline mode in my Developer Edition org. But I couldn’t find any option for it in the settings.

I know that offline mode is officially available only in Enterprise, Unlimited, and Performance Editions, but I was wondering—has anyone found a way to enable it in Developer Edition just for testing purposes?

  • Has anyone successfully requested access for offline mode in Developer Edition?
  • Are there any workarounds or alternative approaches to test offline capabilities?

Would love to hear from anyone who has tried this before. Any insights would be really helpful!

Thanks in advance! 😊

Hello, 

 

I am setting up Mobile for our Sales reps to send emails  though Salesforce . We currently use Microsoft 365/Outlook through our company and have the Outlook app set up on our I phones ( which is secured by our firewall) 

 

When we click on an email address within Salesforce to send an email it does not open Outlook.  It gives us an error. "Email has not been configured on your device. 

 

I downloaded the Gmail app on my mobile phone to see if it would work. I click on the email address in Salesforce app and now it gives me a pop up option to send email via Mail, Gmail and Copy Email.   When clicking mail it now opens the Outlook app the way it should.  When Gmail app is deleted from the phone it goes back to the original error message "Email has not been configured". 

 

I believe I am missing a setting somewhere.  Has anyone had this issue and know how to correct?  Thank you!
