I am trying to call an external api from salesforce apex class which will get all the products.so next i want to show these products as picklist in salesforce lead creation or edit page.I am not sure its possible or not.Any solution or workaround on these is mostly appreciated.
I don't see a way to do this on a standard layout.
I personnaly could do this in a Visualforce page. Probably you probably can do this in a Lightning page as well.

I want to add multi language functionality on my lightning component.
I am not able to find anything useful.
As now i am able to translate only currency and timepicker only.But i want to translate all the custom label (like in VF pages)..
Interesting. I'm new to lightning although I have extensive experience with Apex and so far the only way I can see this happening is to do a metadata call from Apex to generate the list of custom labels and its equivalent language and consume that that on the lightning component controller/helper via the init event. I can't find anything in the lightning developer guide on how to dynamically do this like in visualforce page.
Hope someone can confirm too.
I'm new to Salesforce / Apex
There is this guy worked on our salesforce and he left me with many code. My questions, we have a little problem with some of the fields on one of the application form. How do I find where is the code behind this application? Thanks.
There are a few ways in which Apex can be added to perform custom logic in your salesforce application, there's no clear answer which is doing what and you'll need to dig in to discover that if nothing has been documented in your organization.
Check if any triggers exist
Verify if any apex jobs are scheduled, they can be performing apex batches executign logic
verify if your application page are default page layouts or whether they have inline Visualforce elements or are a full Visualforce page. Anything Visualforce is most likely backed up by apex controllers performing business logic.
Beyond Apex, have you checked if there are any configured workflows which are performing field updates ? These too can modify data.
I am very new to Salesforce Apex. I created a simple Apex-Class to get all contacts in the salesforce website.
I used javascript code to invoke that class as follows
function runApex() {
sforce.interaction.runApex('AccountRetrieval', 'getAccount', 'name=Rajeev', callback);
}
It's working fine in my laptop. But how can my customers get to access that class to get all their contacts ?
If you can't simply give them access to the contacts tab in the UI to achieve what you're after then you can create a visualforce page with a custom controller. In the controller, use SOQL to run a query for all Contacts and save the result to a list or map. You can then use this variable to pass the Contact data to the visualforce page. If you just want to dump the data to the page as HTML then you can use a list variable to hold the query result and an apex:repeat tag to generate the HTML on the visualforce page. If you want more control over how the data is displayed then you could also use the apex variable to pass the data to a javascript variable which you could then build your HTML from client-side in whatever way you like.
More detail would be needed to give you full steps on how to set this all up exactly how you want but basically you should use a visualforce page to give them an interface to run your apex code from. Access to that page can be controlled via profiles or permission sets.
If this page needs to be visible to people who do not have a user account to log into your org then you can use the Salesforce feature called Sites to expose content to them without the need for a login.
First of all I'm really sorry if i'm asking a Dumb Question. But unfortunately i can't find out a way to take inputs for my salesforce Application.
I am developing a simple CV Management app, but i can't figure out how to interact users(input data) to the App? I have created Candidate Custom object, and manually i can create the Candidates, but my requirement is to create records by Candidates themselves.
I followed SalesForce Tutorials and i found out a way to display data using VisualForce Custom Pages. But what i want to## Heading ## do is when i giving a link to the user, he can go to that link and there having form to fill with his personal data, and submit only. But i'm just confused how to user input data map with our Custom Candidate object fields.
when i'm searching i saw some FormAssembly and Custom VisualForce Pages. But Problem is I don't hope to use any 3rd party apps.
Tutorials says that;
In the past, to make Force.com data available to the general public, you had to set up a Web
server, create custom Web pages (JSP, PHP, or other), and use the API to integrate Force.com
apps with an external website. This is no longer the case, thanks to Sites!
Please if you can, help me Friends, Really Appreciate it & Thank you soo much..
You'll probably want to do something along these lines...
Create a Visualforce page with standard controller set to your custom object which is the "CV Entry" page (to send candidates to)
Create a Force.com site in your salesforce org to allow public or restricted access to the page
Setup page authentication/permissions as required
I have a doubt, i've been working with salesforce for a while and now i have a requirement from a customer.
They need that some custom fields be populated with a value of parent object, making some research on stackoverflow, i found this post, but this isn't working for me because my project is a manage package and when this is installed on a another salesforce instance the id of custom field change.
if someone could help me, I will be grateful.
Thanks!.
I can't see any way of doing the same as that post without using the IDs, I was thinking you could route via a VF page and build up the URL in the controller but it doesn't seem as though you can get the IDs of fields, just their type etc..
I think the best you could do in this instance is to override the default new recordpage with a visualforce page. In the constructor of your controller you could then loop through the page parameters and pre-fill the corresponding fields on the new record before it's displayed on screen. Using fieldsets or just an <apex:Detail> component would keep the level of effort down and also maximise the flexibility of the page for the end users.
