Antoine Problem writing Apex Class
Hi,
I'm having a hard time trying to write an Apex Class (I'm a complete newbie), so hopefully somebody here will have some advice.
I wanna share records automatically using Apex.
I have a custom object called "Weekly Update", within this object I have a lookup field towards a User.
Ideally, this code will automatically share the record with the user that's been selected with the lookup.
When I tried this code I got an error that says :

Below is the code. Does anybody have an idea how to make this work?
Thanks a lot,
Antoine
--------
public class WeeklyUpdateSharing {
static boolean manualShareRead(Id recordId, Id Sales_Rep__r.Id ){
// Create new sharing object for the custom object Job.
WU__Share WuShr = new WU__Share();
// Set the ID of record being shared.
WuShr.ParentId = recordId;
// Set the ID of user or group being granted access.
WuShr.UserOrGroupId = Sales_Rep__r.Id;
// Set the access level.
WuShr.AccessLevel = 'Read';
// Set rowCause to 'manual' for manual sharing.
// This line can be omitted as 'manual' is the default value for sharing objects.
WuShr.RowCause = Schema.WU__Share.RowCause.Manual;
// Insert the sharing record and capture the save result.
// The false parameter allows for partial processing if multiple records passed
// into the operation.
Database.SaveResult sr = Database.insert(WuShr,false);
// Process the save results.
if(sr.isSuccess()){
// Indicates success
return true;
}
else {
// Get first save result error.
Database.Error err = sr.getErrors()[0];
// Check if the error is related to trival access level.
// Access levels equal or more permissive than the object's default
// access level are not allowed.
// These sharing records are not required and thus an insert exception is acceptable.
if(err.getStatusCode() == StatusCode.FIELD_FILTER_VALIDATION_EXCEPTION &&
err.getMessage().contains('AccessLevel')){
// Indicates success.
return true;
}
else{
// Indicates failure.
return false;
}
}
}
I assume you will be running this via schduled apex? That is probably another discussion....
try:
public class WeeklyUpdateSharing { static boolean manualShareRead(Id recordId, Id Sales_Rep_Id ){ // Create new sharing object for the custom object Job. WU__Share WuShr = new WU__Share(); // Set the ID of record being shared. WuShr.ParentId = recordId; // Set the ID of user or group being granted access. WuShr.UserOrGroupId = Sales_Rep_Id; // Set the access level. WuShr.AccessLevel = 'Read'; // Set rowCause to 'manual' for manual sharing. // This line can be omitted as 'manual' is the default value for sharing objects. //WuShr.RowCause = Schema.WU__Share.RowCause.Manual; // Insert the sharing record and capture the save result. // The false parameter allows for partial processing if multiple records passed // into the operation. Database.SaveResult sr = Database.insert(WuShr,false); // Process the save results. if(sr.isSuccess()){ // Indicates success return true; } else { // Get first save result error. Database.Error err = sr.getErrors()[0]; // Check if the error is related to trival access level. // Access levels equal or more permissive than the object's default // access level are not allowed. // These sharing records are not required and thus an insert exception is acceptable. if(err.getStatusCode() == StatusCode.FIELD_FILTER_VALIDATION_EXCEPTION && err.getMessage().contains('AccessLevel')){ // Indicates success. return true; } else{ // Indicates failure. return false; } } }I believe the only thing wrong was the variable name for the sales rep ID. You should be passing sales_rep__r.id into the variable I renamed sales_rep_id
