Hi there,

I am getting questions from users about exporting the results from their Salesforce List Views into Excel files.

E.g. in Knolwedge, let's say I create a List View of all unpublished Drafts. Can that List be exported to either XLSX or CSV?

All I could find was the PDF from the cloud in the upper left.

Any advice appreciated!

    Yes, there are several software solutions available to convert EML files to MBOX format, which is commonly used by email clients like Thunderbird, Apple Mail, and SeaMonkey. These tools facilitate the migration or backup of email data. 

     

    One such reliable tool is the

I'm trying to insert records into my org, using data loader and I get the error "Account: bad field names on insert/update call: " and then custom Contact fields (__pc). I have googled and came up with nothing that worked. The user has permission to view/edit all fields so it's not that and there are no roles in the org. How can I fix this, in order to insert the records?

    If you want to recover emails from Outlook then you can restore it from deleted items folder. But if OST becomes corruptions then you can opt Turgs Recover emails from OST File for maintained results and it also offers fully maintained result without affecting any attributes.

    I needed to name my columns in the .csv as the API names of the Custom Metadata Type custom fields - so by appending "__c" to the name of the column after the field name. For example, if the field name in my Custom Metadata Type was ZIP Code, I would name the column which values were supposed to go that field ZIP_Code__c.

How to include Current Year in the email templates in salesforce? I just want the Year not the date/time.

Any help is appreciated!

    Hey Swati,

    Create a Text type formula field - TEXT(YEAR(TODAY())), and add it as a merge field in your email template.

    Kindly mark it as the best answer so that it can help others as well.

    Thank you,

When I trying to authenticate my VS Code with the Sandbox. 

Then I am getting the below error.

Unexpected end of JSON input

This is most likely not an error with the Salesforce CLI. Please ensure all information is accurate and try again.
