Hi All,

Here is my business requirement and I never worked on webservices. 

1. We have specif objects and fields to consume by Oracle.
2. Oracle will consume the webservice and then should be able to  updated few fields in SFDC.

My Assumptions:
Simply generate WSDL and provide them to consume the webservice?
or Do we have to write any classes for each object to expose the data?

Please help me, how I have to achieve this.

regards,
Ajay

Hi,

I would like to automate my data upload in salesforce without data loader , please let me know if i can use anyother tool for performing the data upload automatically or is there any scripts that i can use to automate the upload of data.


Thanks in Advance

I need to query an Oracle database from my Salesforce1 app. Can someone suggest a way of doing the same using APEX ? 

Hi everyone,

Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.  I am currently trying to do a custom CSV import in order to automate the process of importing a CSV every day.  I have a VisualForce page that accepts the filename of the CSV file and calls my apex class to do the upload. (both are below) The CSV parser is working fine, after testing.  The problem I am having is with grabbing the related object ids for the import.  The error I am getting is "System.ListException: List index out of bounds: 17

 

I think my problem is around the section with the comment "//create a list of the related zip code ids"

 

About my objects:

I have a zip code object that is a related list to my Activations object.

I'm working on a migration routine of legacy data into Salesforce.  I must export the data after it gets into Salesforce in order to link objects with the SF internal IDs.  The data exporter only allows one export every 48 hours and I need to iterate more often that that. The scheduler only lets me do once a week!  I'm only testing with 30 records so I'm not talking a big export here. Is there anyway around this limitation of the data exporter? Can I use the Force IDE?
