Mobile Configuration for custom mobile apps using SDK

Hi all,

 

does anybody know if / how it is possible to access Salesforce Mobile Configuration when building a custom mobile app using SFDC SDK ?

 

If it is not possible, that would be a great feature to be included in future releases.

 

As we are building an iOS app which allows for offline data storage and editing for all Salesforce Orgs, we need a possiblity to be able to configure which objects and fields need to be synchronized (and also which records). This feature exists in the SFDC platform (=Mobile Configurations), but seems not to be exposed for access by developers. The only work-around we came up with is to partially re-build some of this functionality in a custom SFDC app, but that's confusing for users as the standard Mobile Configuration functionality for standard SFDC mobile clients does exactly that.

 

Any response / feedback on this topic are highly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Danat

Unfortunately, it's not excessable via a public API, so no, it's not possible.

Hi Tom,

 

thanks for your fast reply.

 

Do you know / can you tell if such access could be potentially implemented in the future?

 

Thank you,

I don't know. There's an Ideas entry here you can vote for, though:
