I have created a custom code that overrides the default "Send an Email" button on Contact object.
In case of standard button, when we select "My Computer", browse any file and click on "Attach file" button , it gets saved somewhere.
Can anyone tell me where is this file getting saved in my org ? Is there any standard object that is not visible ?
You need to share your code for a exact answer.
If you are creating a Attachment object in your code and setting the parentID to the ID of the contact, then the attached file if uploaded successfully will show up under the Notes and attachments related list.
You may not have this list on the layout, and may need to add it to the layout to see the record.

I am trying to make an application that would have a form that gets autofilled once the user uploads a JSON file and clicks the load button , so I was wondering if there's any way to achieve this .
Thanks
That's totally possible. Just make the file upload write a JSON to state (https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/file-uploading-in-react-js/) and then when the user clicks a button, scan through the uploaded JSON for the relevant keys. When you find a key, just use the value associated with it and set the state value of the associated form element.
I'm dynamically creating some PDF files through my application, using iText, and I need to use several components (TextField, CheckBox, RadioButtons etc), and then submit the values to server. But, one of the requirements says that the user needs to be able to select and send files along with the other values. I did not find a specific component to this, and so I'm asking for some help with this situation.
Is there a way to create some kind of Input File, File Chooser, etc, and attach it on the generated PDF file? And then send this selected file to server?
Thanks
This is explained in the official documentation, more specifically in the example FdfServlet of chapter 9 of my book. However, in this example, we add a file selection field to an existing PDF, so I've made you an example that explains how to create such a field when creating a document from scratch: FileSelectionExample
A file selection field is created just like any other text field, except that you have to set a flag using the setOptions() method. If you want a file chooser to appear, you also have to add a JavaScript action:
TextField file = new TextField(writer, new Rectangle(36, 788, 559, 806), "myfile");
file.setOptions(TextField.FILE_SELECTION);
PdfFormField upload = file.getTextField();
upload.setAdditionalActions(PdfName.U, PdfAction.javaScript(
"this.getField('myfile').browseForFileToSubmit();", writer));
writer.addAnnotation(upload);
In the full example, I also added a second field and after selecting the file with the browseForFileToSubmit() method, I set the focus to that other field. I'm doing this because the file name only becomes visible in the file selection field after that field loses focus.
I installed "Organic Groups" and "Feeds". I have 2 content type (feeds and articles).
Feeds works fine, it imports the items well.
I assign feeds and articles content to a group (both have group reference field), but when I import with Feeds, the items doesn't have group reference.
I tried to configure the importer, but I can not map the reference group.
Any idea? Thanks ^^
(Sorry for my english)
I know this is an old post, but I think I have a solution (I had a similar experience earlier). It's a little complicated, but it definitely works!
Install both [Feeds] (https://www.drupal.org/project/feeds) and [Feeds Tamper] (https://www.drupal.org/project/feeds_tamper)
Create a content type to receive the feed entries.
*I'll call this new content type "Blog post"
Add a text field to BOTH the new content type AND to your OG form.
*I'll call this field "Feed nickname"
On your OG form, fill in the field with the appropriate feed nickname.
*I suggest making this a one-word nickname
Under Structure>Feeds Importers>Edit>Node processor settings, select "Blog post" as the chosen bundle to receive the feed. Click save.
Under Structure>Feeds Importers>Edit>Node processor mapping, add a new mapping with "Blank source" as the source and "Feed nickname" as the target. Click save.
Under Structure>Feeds Importers>Tamper, scroll to the section "Blank source-> Feed nickname" and click "add plugin."
Choose the plugin called "Set default value" and set the default value to your chosen feed nickname. Click save and make sure the plugin is enabled. Click save at the bottom of the tamper form.
Add the feed importer as usual, under yoursite.org/import
Short explanation:
What this process does, essentially, is to assign all of the incoming feeds a default dummy value (in this case, the "feed nickname" you chose), and then match that value to the one you put in your content type. Having the same field and field value shared among the feed, the content type, and the OG links them together, and makes it possible for you to relate them in Views, etc.
Hope this helps!
maybe this is not a good quetion posted on this site, but I am trying to upload a presentation to SalesForce (https://test.salesforce.com/). I understand that at first I have to create "Key messages" which represent each slides in the presentation, then I create new CLM presentation and select presentation slides.
But then I am stucked. Is this everything to uploading the presentation or I have to migrate the presentation somewhere, upload somewhere else using FTP, etc.
I hope my question is understandable (because my English is not very good).
Thanks for help.
AFAIK, follow these steps to upload a presentation with single slide..
Create a Key message and upload the media (zip file). (Simply give key message name and upload proper well-formed zip)
Create a Presentation Slide (Just slide name)
Now, create a CLM Presentation, in which you need to browse and select the above 2 objects against their respective fields.
That's it on salesforce.
Now sync iRep app on device/iPad and it should come down in "Media".
Try this,
1.Create a new presentation
2.Go to CLM Key Messages tab and here, before creating a new key message you might need to create a new view("Create New View" link button) to group these key messages(at least that's how I do it).
Here you need to make sure that the filter method is set correctly otherwise I won't be able to see those key messages attached to this view.
So you can set sth like this(on step 2):
Field | Operator | Value
Message | contains | slide_prefix
On step 3 you need to add "Message" in "Selected fields" Tab
3.Now create a "New CLM Message" and make sure that it has "slide_prefix" on his name composition(Ex: if slide_prefix is "EXSlide" then clm message should be named like: EXSlide myslide01 or EXSlide_slide01)
4.After creating CLM key message you will be redirected to his info page where you need to upload the ".zip" file.
5.Last step is to create "New Presentation Slide"(On the bottom of the page). Here you need to input the Presentation(presentation name created on step 1), key message name(you can search for them) and a display order
Now sync the ipad and it should appear.
In addition to sTx answer, you can take a look at the "Veeva Content Creation Guidelines" (Link below). This will fit most of your developer needs.
Veeva Content Creation Guidelines
Keep in mind that often client groups have special region codes and labeling rules (see also: sTx answer to "Prefix" rules), that you have to follow, to match users and contents in a global account. If you dont, nothing will appear on the iPad. Example: yourID + Language + Country (YourID_ENG_UK.zip)
Also companys often split thier environment in two, a sandbox and a production section - Make sure you have the permission to see sandbox contents. For this purpose, activate the "Training Content" checkbox on the presentation object, to see your presentation without a migration.
All contents you create in the backend are by default visible to you on the iPad. Check the "Config" > "Media" list and look for your Zips files; if they get downloaded.
I want to let admin upload files (PDF files) to a separate user (client), such as bill, information and documentation.
I think to Add new content type with some fields, like file field, but I don't know how to add users list, so admin can choose file to upload and corresponding user.
After I finish this step, how can I display these files to user when login?
To reference the user, you could install the entity reference module.
http://drupal.org/project/entityreference
You can use that to add a field that will reference users.
As far as listing files for the user, you can use Views to make a list of your new content type, and filter it by the user who is logged in.
To elaborate more, Install the Views module, and make a new View, with a content-type filter for your new type, and a contextual filter for current User, and then add a Field for the file field, and configure the field however you would like the file to be displayed to the user.
Depending on what you want, you could also set that view as the frontpage of your site, so that people will see it when they log in.
To filter by current user, when you add the Contextual Filter, in the "WHEN THE FILTER VALUE IS NOT IN THE URL" section, select "Provide Default Value" and then select the type "User ID from logged in user"
