Can't update ContactId on User record?

I have a use case to create a corresponding Contact every time a User is created. I wanted to use the standard ContactId field on User with a flow so that after the Contact record is created, update ContactId lookup on User, however this does not seem possible?

When I attempt this in execute anonymous, it gives the error "System.DmlException: Update failed. First exception on row 0 with id <id>; first error: UNKNOWN_EXCEPTION, You can't create a contact for this user because the org doesn't have the necessary permissions. Contact Salesforce Customer Support for help.: []"

Does anyone know what the necessary permissions are to write to this field? I can't seem to find any answers yet, probably will contact support after the weekend as well.

How to use HTTP CALLOUT on a .csv document?

Hi,
I have a url which refers to a .csv file. That means if you put the url into your browser, you will download a .csv file.
But how can I use http callout to directly get the content of the .csv file?
I have tried httpresponse, but it does not work. I think it is because httpresponse can only parse Json or xml.
Thanks!

Unable to call Apex Rest

In my org, I am using OAuth with Connected Apps and I have developed an Apex RestResource with a HttpGet method. Everything is working great on a dev org, however on a production org, I am getting an error, "We are down for maintenance. Sorry for the inconvenience. We'll be back shortly."

 

When using the Workbench, I can successfully call my RestResource. So I suspect I'm missing something really simple.

 

Any help would be really appreciated.

 

Here is the output from my curl command:

PRIORVALUE function does not work for Picklist and Lookup fields

Hello,

 

I am sending alerts to users when a record has been modified. I want an email to contain previous values of the changed fields so I am using the PRIORVALUE to update the fields. PRIORVALUE is working for normal fields but for lookup and picklist it seems like it is giving the values number and displays them as numbers instead of the value itself. Does anyone know how to show previous values of a lookup or picklist in an email/alert?

 

Appreciate any help.
