I just watched this video

that demonstrates low-code external connectors. I cannot find any documentation or Trailhead guides on how to configure them. 

 

Does anyone know where to look for this information?

Hi Team,

I'm unable to see all my certifications under my profile, even though I’ve logged in using the same Webassessor account email. I’ve also connected that account to Trailhead and merged all my Trailhead profiles accounts, but the certifications are still not showing.

I need to complete the due maintenance for the Email Specialist Certification, and the deadline is 10-04-2025.

I have raised a Salesforce Help case (#470230779), but no one has looked into it even after 24 hours. When I contacted support over the phone, they mentioned that the case would be escalated. However, since it relates to Trailhead, their support team will review it within 24 to 48 hours.

Requesting urgent attention to this as the maintenance deadline is approaching. Can someone please help me in this case !

Thanks,

I am writing a validation rule to require a field on a custom object called Agreements. It should not fire on creation of the record, only on update. With this said, I think I need to input NOT(ISNEW()) into the AND() statement. Here is what I have right now, but the validation rule is still firing on create. It should not fire if Fuel_Purch_T_E_Prepaid__c or VCAP_Prepaid__c = FALSE. It should only fire for those that are in CA or UT.  

 

IF(

OR(

Fuel_Purch_T_E_Prepaid__c = FALSE),

OR(

VCAP_Prepaid__c = FALSE),

AND( 

$Setup.Control_Panel__c.Disable_Validation_Rules__c = FALSE,

$Profile.Name = 'CP - Sales Lightning - PROD',

RecordType.Name = 'Master Services Agreement',

CASE(ES_Physical_State_or_Province__c,

'CA',1,

'UT',1,

0 ) = 1,

ISBLANK(TEXT( Credit_Limit_Type__c )),

NOT(ISNEW())

))

    You don't need an IF in a Validation Rule Formula 

     

    Are you trying to do this?

     

    AND(

    NOT(ISNEW()),

    OR(

    Fuel_Purch_T_E_Prepaid__c = FALSE),

    OR(

    VCAP_Prepaid__c = FALSE),

    AND(

    $Setup.Control_Panel__c.Disable_Validation_Rules__c = FALSE,

    $Profile.Name = 'CP - Sales Lightning - PROD',

    RecordType.Name = 'Master Services Agreement',

    CASE(ES_Physical_State_or_Province__c,

    'CA',1,

    'UT',1,

    0 ) = 1,

    ISBLANK(TEXT( Credit_Limit_Type__c ))

    )

    )

I've been asked if it was possible to have a different 'page layout' for the task popup under activities. The client wants to show different fields on the contact object vs the opportunity object. Is this possible? Any ideas for workarounds if not?

Hi,    I have a flow that uses the Unofficalsf.com action Convert records to CSV, to convert all records from a Get, I am however hitting an error: An Apex error occurred: System.LimitException: Apex heap size too large: 6586505.    I'm guiessing that amount of data is too large, I need to way to create batch, so for example if I have a 1000 records that need to be converedt to CSV, the flow will create batches of 250 in each CSV, so 4 CSV files craeted that I can releate to the reccord my flows is running against?    My consideration include that the number of record could be more or less then the example?    Thanks  @Salesforce Flow Automation@Admin Trailblazers@* Salesforce Developers *

    Hey @Callum North

    This is a limitation with APEX and this tool. Like Arun suggested I would try with smaller batch sizes; but this will end up getting you multiple CSV files. If this is an item ran by the system and not a user then you will run into this; otherwise there is an LWC version that has a higher Heap limit that may work.

I'm having an issue with bot clicks on emails we send out. I'd say 90% of the clicks are from bots and it's rendering our engagement metrics and MQLs useless. 

 

Our prospects are schools so would be implementing high level security features. 

 

Has anyone had this issue and overcome the problem? 

 

I've created a hidden custom redirect in the footer which adds them to a list and reduces their score, but as a lot of prospects aren't cookied, this doesn't always work.

I've got a flow that creates a new opportunity when using an "Amend" button (triggers an action) from a contract record. For one path of the flow, it references the Opportunity in the contract record (lookup field called Opportunity). This works as expected. 

 

I'm trying to have a second path that works for contracts that do not have an opportunity identified. I'm getting an error on the Create Opportunity component saying that required fields are missing (Name, StageName, CloseDate) but I have those included in my assignment.

    So that should work, Indeed... Have you checked that all values mapped (for these fields) are not null ?

I have added the Quick Lookup component and want to show Lookups with Dependent Filtering however, I am able to make it work with Account and Contact object but it does not even display anything in the dropdown list when I am using any other Education Cloud standard objects. 

 

I have attached the configuration for the Component. 

I am using a Quick Lookup in one of my Screen flow and it seems to work for Standard Account and Contact object but doesn't seem to work for any other Education  Cloud Standard Objects.Capture.PNG

    I can confirm that it doesn't seem to work with many of the Education Cloud objects. We are running the latest version of FlowScreenComponentsBasePack (3.3.9) and the flow that I tested with was running with the latest API version. 

     

    So, I don't have an answer for using Quick Lookup, but I think you should be able to get a similar experience by using Screen Actions.

I am currently working through my trailhead module: "Modify your Data Model | Trailhead Screen Reader Instructions" 

 

And I am currently working on the steps shown below (snapshot) step # 4 & 5 where it says "Activate the Edit Support Plan Start Date" however I am not seeing that field anywhere on the account "Edge Communications," am I missing something?  

Not seeing the specific field indicated in the module for practice2025-04-04 07 47 24.jpg

    Hello @Kiran Kumar Dagala, it is a message for @Roger Calderon, I guess ;)

    Hello, have you tried creating a custom file with the same name and extension, and use it instead ?
