I am working on trying to develop a class to display just the attachments on our Salesforce Instance.  Kind of like the Attachment Manager that is available.  However, I will be having it displayed in a VisualForce Page.  Trying to query from the Database, but unsure of how to get the informaiton from all the attachments, not just related to a single case.  Any ideas?

I have apex batch scheduled to run daily.This batch query sometime timesout (First error: [QUERY_TIMEOUT] Your query request was running for too long).

Is there any wayto retry the batch at the same time ?

The problem is, this type of error, doesnot go in the try/catch, and also no FInish method is called. So i am not sure how to detect this batch failure and rerun it.

1. Is there anyway to capture HTTP response time in apex ? 
2. Is there anyway to see long running calls in SF ? Seems there is a limit of 25.

Can we open a HTML Email template as pdf using Custom link/button, so user can print/save the document.

Hello,

Account_Review__c has three picklist fields, and there are dependency rules defined between them, so options for one field, depends on whats selected in the other.

I am tryign to display the values of these three fields, in a pageblock. But its causing multiple rerenders, because of dependency picklists, and therefore showing wrong results.

Ex. I set values in three fields, and then if i change the first picklist value, the values in second and third picklist shows NULL (per dependency rules) in the dropdown, but doesnt show NULL when i am printing in the page block. See attached images.

What should i do so the values in pageblock, alwasy show the correct picklist values, after rerender. Thanks.

Can anybody share the C# bulk (query, insert, update, delete) api examples. Online i can find Java exaples, but not C#.

Hello All,

Does anybody have sample Java code to Bulk query SF records followed by Bulk delete in the same call ?

Thanks
Sid

What different ways can we hard delete salesforce records.

1. From within Apex (batch) ?
2. Bulk API (Java) ? 
3. Data loader - Hard Delete options ? Tried this, working fine.

Out requirements is to have a batch running every X minutes (inside/outide of SF) which can query records and hard delete them.

Hi All,

Is there a way in Apex to see if the specified text passes the salesforce password policies. 

Use Case: In our customer portal, we are allowing new users to register for the portal. So we are inserting a new user and setting the password in the same call. Now if the password doesnt pass the password policies, than the user is created in sf, but the password is not set. (we are not using temporary password approach)

Thanks
Sid

Is there a way to parse just the exception code while making calls like insert user, System.setPassword etc.

The error message show: 
Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: PORTAL_USER_ALREADY_EXISTS_FOR_CONTACT, portal user already exists for contact: []
Failure : INVALID_NEW_PASSWORD: Your password must be at least 5 characters long.

But now sure how to just get PORTAL_USER_ALREADY_EXISTS_FOR_CONTACT , INVALID_NEW_PASSWORD

List of exception codes: https://www.salesforce.com/developer/docs/api/Content/sforce_api_calls_concepts_core_data_objects.htm#i1421192

Is there a way to login another user in the apex class, to get the session id of that user. I probably can do it using the soap Login call within apex, passing username and password for the second user, and get the session id. But wondering if there is a shortcut for the same.

Thanks.

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi All,

If i make a change in apex class in Force.Com ide (installed as a plugin in Eclipse Kepler), it doesnt not check the server file, and overrites it, even if the server file is different.
I expect, IDE should throw the error - file doesnt match the server file, and should fail to update. Not sure why its happening, any ideas ?

Thanks

Hello All,

We have a outside application, which is suppose to update couple records in SF.
Now these records can hit Validation Rule, which prevents the records to save successfully.
Can we have some error traping on these records updates coming from outside of SF, so if they hit the Validation Rule, than shoot an email notification to the admin.
I can read these updates in the Before Trigger, but not sure how to actually catch if they fail to save.
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Everyone,

I am new to Salesforce coding and learning to integrate with Salesforce. I am facing issue as mentioned below.

Scenario - I am integrating two Salesforce instance using APEX Callout and REST API. In the source SFDC instance I have created a trigger on the Account Object that calls a class with @future annotation. This class sends out a HTTP Request to the other SFDC instance using Web Server Authentication Flow.

Issue Description - Per the defined steps in 'Getting Started with the Force.com REST API' guide, I create a Connected App record in the Destination SFDC instance. But when the APEX code is requesting the Salesforce Authorization Endpoint with the relevant parameters (response_type, client_id, redirect_uri), I am not able to retrieve the Authorization Code (Code) that comes along with the Callback URL.
Though, I am successfully redirected to the callback URL (appended with the code) when I am using a browser. See below the request and the redirected response I get when I do it in a browser - 
HTTP Request:
https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=[client_id taken from the Connected App record]&redirect_uri=https://localhost:8443/RestTest/oauth/_callback&immediate=true
HTTP Response:
http://localhost:8443/RestTest/oauth/_callback?code=[aPrxg.........]%3D%3D

Problem Statements - 
1. On the first place, is it possible to programmatically extract the code from the HTTP response?

2. If the answer to the above question is 'Yes', then please suggest, how? What are the relevant methods to extract this information.

Thanks
Anupam

Hi, I'm having some problems handling XML files with the Force WSC. First, an issue with unmarshalling CustomObject files:

com.sforce.ws.ConnectionException: UTF-8Not a valid enumeration for type: class com.sforce.soap.metadata.Encoding

 

I can see that the enumeration com.sforce.soap.metadata.Encoding is expecting "UTF_8" rather than "UTF-8", however the metadata is retrieved with the hyphen. Do I really have to find and replace this case before I can unmarshal the file properly? For the record, I used Force WSC to create these classes, Force WSC to retrieve the metadata, and I am using Force WSC to unmarshal the files. Is this framework incompatible with itself?

 

The issue with marshalling those CustomObject files is that I can't seem to save them in the same format that they were downloaded in. Whenever I marshall a metadata object to an XML file, it adds namespace prefixes ("n1:") to every tag, which is not how I want to store the data. So is there any way to marshal these files without the namespace prefixes, or will I have to do this myself after they are written?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

 

I'm using DescribeSObjectResult to retrieve details about Object and its fields.

I noted that the Description property of each field is not available. 

 

I see here

http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/Content/sforce_api_calls_describesobjects_describesobjectresult.htm#i1427375

 

Am I missing anything here?

 

What's the reason for not having the description available in API?

 

Thanks
