When I add a new sandbox org, the Environment Hub includes an entry for me to login to this sandbox, but SSO (Single Sign-On) is not enabled. I want to enable SSO on each sandbox org so I don't have to remember passwords for each org and don't want to set the passwords for my user on each org to be the same as this is less secure.

How can I get SSO enabled on all sandbox orgs as/when they are added to the Environment Hub ?
Hello,
 
We are investigating the use of the salesforce customer portal to replace our self-service portal which we currently use to support our customers, and we are thinking how we can develop a product download tab in this portal. The idea we have is that the code (s-control and/or html) can look at the assets table for the customer who is signed onto the portal and use the assets to determine which products they are allowed to download.
 
Considering this requirement, the code providing the download page functionality would need to know who is signed onto the portal, and be able to access assets for the company that the customer belongs to. We are not clear how we can do this, but assume it would require us to implement SSO in this app somehow, and from this, know the session id of the customer signed on. Is this correct ? if so, is the session id passed to web tabs so we can obtain it easily ?
 
Thanks,
Tim

Hi all,

There is an interesting S-Control in the Apexchange to create a link and update the company´s currencies, it is called Currency Exchange Rate Updater 1.0.

We want to use it in our organization, the problem is that we want a user with no Admin rights to execute it and the Date Conversion data, for some odd reason, requires this priviledges.

The question is if it is possible to execute API calls as a different user to overcome this limitation and have the code execute successfully by specific users. Here is the code in question (an extract of it) in case it helps clarify:

Code:
        var newConversionRate = new sforce.SObject("DatedConversionRate");
        newConversionRate.IsoCode = isoCurrencyCode;
        newConversionRate.ConversionRate = roundRate;
        newConversionRate.StartDate = today;
        //insert the record into SFDC
        try {
          var newConversionRateResult = sforce.connection.create([newConversionRate]);

 Thanks,

J
