I tried calling this function from both APEX and WS API, with a simplest soql fragement mentioned in salesforce docs itself i.e. 

SELECT convertTimezone(CreatedDate) FROM Opportunity

I always got this error : MALFORMED_QUERY: Invalid aggregate function: convertTimezone

How does this guy works ?

Is there a limit to the number of concurrent login sessions I have have that use the same username?

In other words, if I develop a Java application that uses the Web Services API to log into Salesforce, and I run 20 different instances of the application, all logging into Salesforce with the same username, is that a problem? Is there a limit to the number of concurrent sessions that can use the same username?

Thanks!

Hi All,

I am generating the metadata api server url out of the partner api one, that I got from a Visual Force page. This works fine with a few replacements of the partner url string.

One thing that both server urls have is a version number, and the one for the metadata is not necessarily the same as the one for the partner api.

I am assuming that any org in salesforce uses the latest metadata api. Right ?

In that case how do we get to know when the metadata api version changes to a new one ? (one way is to look at the online manual which now says 19.0 and this works fine).

Thanks in advance.

Hi all

Excuse the basic question... I'm struggling with forming two simple queries, of these types:

Select x from y WHERE LastmodifiedDate = 2010-05-17

Select x from y WHERE LastmodifiedDate > 2010-05-10 AND LastmodifiedDate < 2010-05-19

This is to run the Data Loader in batch mode, if it matters.

Tried to muddle through the API docs - failed to find anything that clarified this.

cheers

Bill

SELECT Id FROM Lead WHERE LastModifiedDate = 2010-05-03 doesn't work of corse since it's looking for a DateTime.  But do I really need to do a search on 20010-05-03T00:00:00 to 2010-05-04T00:00;00.  When creating a Lead View, I can define a specific date and have everything work out behind the scene.  Just wondering if there is a better way then to define the range.

• When setting up asyncronous callback responses, there are 2 methods that I can't find in the Lightning documentation or with a Google search, so what are they native to?
  • getReturnValue()
  • getState()
• When setting up a variable to run an apex method, there are methods which I have a similar issue with:
  • setParams()
• ​In another module, 2 methods in the Helper class for a component call another method within the same Helper class with the "this." nomenclature. Given that these methods are all held in a map, is this a standard Javascript technique or something else?

Following PDF explains about accessing Chatter data using Web Service Connector (WSC) :

What is the difference between chatter REST API and WSC?

Thanks.

Hi All,

Is it possible to create a custom field of type integer in a custom object ?

Using the deploy() method with a zipped manifest I use for the custom field the following:

type: Number

The issue is that it fails (Metdata API failure) in the following cases:

- if I don't provide the precison

- if don't provide the scale

- if precison is not larger than scale.

So the net result is, when I provide precision and scale, it creates a field of type double always.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards,

Fernando

Hi,

I am Trying to get started with Amazon EC2 and Salesforce intgration to Build a website. I want to use REST API for this integration. Can someone help me build a HELLO WORLD Application.

Say my user enters his name 'John' I will send  him a responce 'HELLO WORLD JOHN'

I am faliliar with salesforce functinalities and customisations. I can also build a WSDL pretty quickly. But I need guidance to understand how i can provide REST service to the applciation in EC2.

I Downloaded the toolkit and looked into the classes as per the information i obtained from developerforce. But i still need a step a step by step process after downlading it.

Any information will really be helpful.

Thank you,

Bidun

Stackoverflow  [NOTE]  I think IE 9.0 does not work.  I switched to compatability mode and now I can post messages.

I am attempting to create a new Profile object through the API.  The doc shows that the Profile object does have a create() method, but when I attempt to create a new Profile I receive an error stating, “entity type cannot be inserted: Profile”.  I have run a describeSObjects(new string[]{"Profile"}); and I have found the DescribeSObjectResult has a creatable = False.  Is there a way to use the API to create new Profile objects?
