Vbourbeau Create new contact with flow and validate duplicate
Hi
I want to implement a visual workflow to create contact. All work great but if the user enter a existing email adresse the flow give error. It's normal because we can't have duplicate contact email. So I use lookup to find if the email already exist if yes do error. It is fine if the user can lookup on all contact but most of our user don't have acces to all contact so the lookup work only for is contact.
So can I allow lookup on all contact even if the user don't own it? Or kind of validation on my email fields in the flow...
thank
If you run the flow in a force.com site, it runs w/ the security and sharing of the site guest user. I have thought of trying to use that in the case where I need the flow to run with different security settings than the running user, but have not tried. I believe it would work.
So you need to look at your sharing model, if you can read **any**contact, you should be able to use a flow to look for duplicate contacts. If not, its going to be hard.
Yes my user don't have the read access on each contact. I use a workaround... The fault error message. When a fault occure on a object creation we can trap the fault message. I can now look the contain of the message and redirect it .
