I can hear the choirfolk chanting: Visualforce is so stale!  To which I say: Unless you want to actually print your work. (It would be amazing if lightning could print in a useful way.)

I'm working on a Visualforce page that will be included included in a lightning component that will also be used for a printed version of the VF page contents renderd as pdf.   

I've tried every permutation of <apex:slds />, lightningStylesheets="true", applyHtmlTag="false", applyBodyTag="false", renderAs="pdf", and renderAs="advanced_pdf".

I appears that any attempt to render visualforce that includes the SLDS CSS causes Salesforce to puke with "An internal server error has occurred."  I'm not the first to discover this behavior: https://developer.salesforce.com/forums#!/feedtype=SINGLE_QUESTION_SEARCH_RESULT&id=9060G000000Ub1lQAC

I haven't tried embedding the LDS CSS in a static resource because it appears this didn't work for others: https://github.com/salesforce-ux/design-system/issues/341

Does anyone have insight into the best practice to style a Visualforce page to match the SLDS for inclusion in a lightning component and printing?

Thank you,

Following the documentation on navigation with the sforce.one object, I'm attempting to create Opportunity Products with a link on a Visualforce page that has been added to the page layout and is visible in the Details section of the Lightning Experience view of the Opportunity. I'm calling:

sforce.one.createRecord('OpportunityLineItem');

When clicking "Add Product" from the standard Lightning Experience interface, the "Opportunity" value on the lightbox form is pre-populated.


However, calling sforce.one.createRecord('OpportunityLineItem'); results in a blank "Opportunity" value and clicking in the Product textbox results in an error.



Clearly, calling sforce.one.createRecord('OpportunityLineItem'); isn't providing the Opportunity ID to the Add Product form, but I haven't been able to find any documentation or discussion of how to make this work.

I did find a known issue with Salesforce, that looks like a similar problem.

I know I can create a Visualforce page of my own for adding products, but I'd rather leverage the "Add Product" functionality that already exists in Lightning Experience, if possible. Am I missing something, or are there any pointers you'd recommend?

I've also cross posted this on StackExchange and will report back with anything I learn there.

I'm trying to write a test class and load bunch of test lead's data but for some reason when I call the static resource (that has my CSV) is not recognizing the custom fields. Example, Lead_insurance_Id__c

My CSV file - static resource:

// Example of how my CSV looks like

Id, Firstname, Lastname, Leads_Insurance_ID__c,..etc

000012, Fares, Alsyoufi, 12184111, ..etc
000011, Fare,syoufi, 12184211, ..etc
000013, Fares, syouf, 12184311, ..etc

My test class:
 

@isTest 
global class DataUtil {
    static testmethod void testLoadData() {
        // Load the test accounts from the static resource
        List<sObject> ls = Test.loadData(Account.sObjectType, 'TestData');
        
       }
}

Error message: 



Seems like the standard Salesforce fields didn't cause any execptions but custom fields did (I tried other one beside Lead_Insurance_Id__c) and I still got the same error message. 

P.S:
I've tried to change my CSV header to all of these formats but non helped:

LEADS_INSURANCE_ID__c
Leads_insurance_Id__c
Lead.DLeads_insurance_Id__c
Insurance ID (Field's label)

I'm trying to use the HTML generated from the web-to-case form to add reCaptcha to a web-to-case form in a Lightning Community component. I'm running into the error that the script tag is not allowed. I'm assuming this is because it is in Lightning. Is there a simple workaround? I've seen some comments online about building a Visualforce page with the  and including it in the HTML component as an iframe; is that the best approach?
 

<script src="https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js"></script>
<script>
 function timestamp() { var response = document.getElementById("g-recaptcha-response"); if (response == null || response.value.trim() == "") {var elems = JSON.parse(document.getElementsByName("captcha_settings")[0].value);elems["ts"] = JSON.stringify(new Date().getTime());document.getElementsByName("captcha_settings")[0].value = JSON.stringify(elems); } } setInterval(timestamp, 500); 
</script>

In the User's Guide there is a sample http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/Content/apex_methods_system_test.htm?CSHID=apex_methods_system_test.htm#TestLoadDataExampleSection

of how to use the Test.loadData method to load a csv file with Accounts.

 

I cannot see any documentation nor samples showing how to load records with references (lookup or master-detail) to parent records - e.g. if I want to load Contacts, which refer to Accounts.

 

Anyone who knows. I suppose I am not going to "invent" record IDs????

Our data structure runs on a quite a deep hierarchy. In order to have many of Object B, we must have at least a single Object A, and so forth.

 

How can we use Test.loadData() to set a list of records like this? Or is this not possible?

Am I right in thinking that this method can only set data to a single object and cannot populate relationships?

 

I would like to be able to something like:

 

ChildTestData.csv

"ID","Name","ParentID"

"1","Jim","2"

"2","John", "2"

"3","Jake","3"

 

 

ParentTestData.csv

"ID", "Name"

"1", "Kim"

"2", "Karen"

"3", "Kelly"

 

 

This would result in Jim and John to children of Karen, while Jake is a child of Kelly.

 

 

Also, does this method use up any DML statements?

 

Thanks

Hi Everyone,,
