RDSS Send SMS after 7 days of a particular date.
I am using SMS Magic for sending SMS. I am sending SMS when status is Submitted. Now i am stuck at where i need to send an SMS after 7 days from the date when the application was submitted. I have written a trigger to send SMS for submitted status. How it can be achieved? Please help.
You need to create a Apex flow to achieve the above process, Apex Flow can trigger a operation after a specific date (in your case 7 days after status changed)
You can initiate flow in 2 ways:
1. From Apex code (from trigger when status changed)
public class FlowController { //Instance of the Flow public Flow.Interview.doubler myFlow {get;set;} public Double value {get;set;} public Double getOutput() { if (myFlow == null) return null; return (Double)(myFlow.getVariableValue('v1')); } public void start(){ Map<String, Object> myMap = new Map<String, Object>(); myMap.put('v1', input); myFlow = new Flow.Interview.doubler(myMap); myFlow.start(); } }2. From Process builder : Create a new process from Process Builder and add status change condition when records is craeted/updated, next is to initiate a flow from process builder.
Create a flow with Flow Wait Element
https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.salesforce_vpm_guide.meta/salesforce_vpm_guide/vpm_designer_elements_wait.htm
and From flow [After 7 days wait condition in flow ] call Apex code where you will call your SMS Magic for sending SMS.
