Max Prown 9 Button to mass update contacts from account
Hi,
I've created a button on the Account object that will update a field on the Account's Contact records that causes a trigger to fire. The code itself works fine when there are only a few contact records to be updated, but obviously in large batches it causes a delay and I wasn wondering if anyone had any tips for bulkifiying this type of solution Here's the code:
global with sharing class UpdateContactsButton{
public List<Contact> ConList {get;set;}
webService static String updateactcontacts(ID caseId){
List<Contact> ListToUpdate = new List<Contact>();
List<Contact> conlist = [SELECt ID, AccountID, Update_For_Workflow__c From Contact WHERE AccountId = :caseId];
For(Contact c : Conlist){
c.Update_For_Workflow__c = 'Selling Agreement Update' ;
ListToUpdate.add(c);
}
If(ListToUpdate.size() > 0){
update ListToUpdate;
}
return null;
}
}
Thanks in advance!

Do you mean bulkifying for account updates and then its contacts subsequently?
Thanks

No this is only meant to update a field on Contacts that will kick off triggers for Contacts. I'm sure there are better ways of achieving this, but I wanted to see if this would provide a stop gap solution while we build out something more robust. Thanks!
Was just thinking if we can achieve this via Actions. Can we do that if possible
Thanks
