Hi,

I am developing code using salesforce ws and I'm retrieving the endpoint url for purposes for redirecton in my webapp. However the SoapBindingStub.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY has a -api in it - 

https://na6.salesforce.com/  

shows up as

https://na6-api.salesforce.com

Is this always consistent. If I write code to strip out the "-api" in Java, can I bank on Salesforce to maintain that format consistent.

thanks,

Hi,

I am querying custom objects in SF using webservices. Is there a way I can fetch only the nth batch of records from a select statement.

For example -there are 100 results for "select id from account order by created date". I want only results numbering 21-30.  Is there any way I can achieve this?

There is a limit command I can use with the select statement, but that only gives me the first n records.

Thanks,

Odie

Hi,

What is the best way of using DescribeSObjectResult to determine if a  user has access to a custom object ?

Is it that the DescribeSObject call will fail or will I get some kind of  DescribeSObjectResult which I have to play around with to determine if the user has access?

thanks,

Odie

Hi,

I am using WebServices to query SF and am using the SearchResult Object. I am having trouble manipulating the result Object. My search statement is as follows. Please note that I want the child object account name.

sr = binding.search("find {4083068888 OR 4083069999 OR 4083067777} in phone fields returning "+

" contact(id, phone, firstname, lastname, account.name), "+

" lead(id, phone, firstname, lastname),"+

" account(id, phone, name)");

I am using the code below to access the result values but I am unable to get the child object.

SearchRecord[] records = sr.getSearchRecords();

Vector contacts = new Vector();

Vector leads = new Vector();

Vector accounts = new Vector();

if (records != null && records.length > 0) {

for (int i=0;i<records.length;i++){

SObject record = records[i].getRecord();

if (record.getType().toLowerCase().equals("contact")) { contacts.add(record);

} else if (record.getType().toLowerCase().equals("lead")){ leads.add(record);

} else if (record.getType().toLowerCase().equals("account")) { accounts.add(record);

}

}

if (contacts.size() > 0) {

System.out.println("Found " + new Integer(contacts.size()).toString() + " contacts:"); for (int i=0;i<contacts.size();i++){

SObject c = (SObject)contacts.get(i);

System.out.println(c.getId() + // Id, works c.get_any()[1].getValue() + //Last Name, works

c.get_any()[2].getValue() + //First name, works c.get_any()[3].getValue()); //Account name, does NOT work. not sure how i should get the value for the Name tag out.

}

}

 Any pointers would be appreciated. How do you get a hold of child nodes in the SObject?

thanks,

Hi,

I am using the SF Webservices API to query SF objects. I want to query Leads and Contacts by phone number and I want to return matched records. Currently, I am using 2 seperate web service queries to achieve this, but is there anyway I can achieve this in only one query?

Thanks, Odie

Hi,

Can I use the AJAX Toolkit 14 outside of salesforce to make calls to retrieve Salesforce data?

I have a JSP page which I am hosting in our company website. I have a link to this page in an S-Control. This page uses connection.js, but I am unable to make AJAX calls to retrieve data. The same code works perfectly when placed in an S-Control directly.

Summarizing, my questions -

1) Can I use the AJAX Toolkit 14 outside of salesforce to make calls to retrieve Salesforce data?

2) If not, is there a work around thatwould allow me to make these calls from outside SF.

thanks a bunch,

Hello,
 
I am relatively new to SF. Is it possible to modify the behavior of the "Change My Password" page (Popup with message on Save button click).

Will Visualforce help in this regard?
 
thanks,
Odie. 

Hi,

Is there a way to detect a user's password change? Obviously, I do not need any sort of access to the password itself. I just need access to a flag that tells me if a person's password has been changed.

All help appreciated!

Thanks

Odie.
