Things to remember before giving community access to guest users

Posted by | Jan 12, 2020 | , , , ,

When we build the Salesforce Communities, sometimes based on the customer requirements, we need to provide guest access to the communities. Guest access in basically the unauthorized access to the community. As you can easily understand, any unauthorized access is always a very dangerous things to implement. So we need to make sure our security configuration is strong enough that no internal data is getting exposed to the outside world i.e. unauthorized users. And if situation demands, only the required information(as minimum as possible) will be exposed.I am going to write down what are the details we should keep in mind while configuring guest access to the communities. To start, let’s revisit some basic stuffs first.For each communities we build in Salesforce, there will be a guest profile created for us automatically. It doesn’t matter, whether we allow guest access or not, the guest profile will be created for us always.All guest users i.e. unauthorized users will use this profile to access the community. If we create 5 communities, then there will be 5 guest profiles created. Name of the profile will be Profile. Starting Spring’20 Salesforce release, the settings “Secure guest user record access” will be enabled by default. Salesforce recommends using this settings to provide user record access to the guest users through communities. But there are few important things we should keep in mind -OWD will be...

In Spring’20, Salesforce introduced one feature which was pending for a long time and also got a good amount of vote in Idea Exchange.Recently while working with a customer who is trying to implement Lightning Knowledge, it was one of the top priority requirement. And I don’t want to do any custom development for this. But to my surprise, I saw that Salesforce already introduced this feature in Spring’20 as Beta.I was like …So thought of sharing this information here how we can use this great feature.Basically in the article layout all we need to do is include the Lightning component “Article Version Comparison” and then we can select the versions we want to compare. Screenshots are given below.This is very useful feature for the Approver to see the actual changes before taking any decisions. Also for the viewer also, they can see the changes between different versions(provided they have the permission to view versions of the...

Google Cloud Platform (GCP), renowned for its scalability, security, and versatility, provides a vast range of cloud-based services. To manage these services effectively, GCP incorporates a resource hierarchy model that helps users manage, organize, and control resources. Understanding the structure and flow of this hierarchy is crucial for optimizing resource management and security in GCP. At the most basic level, the Google Cloud resource hierarchy is divided into four primary components: the Organization, Folders, Projects, and Resources. ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 0:01 - Introduction 0:50 - Understand Resource Hierarchy with Example 3:18 - High Level Understanding of applying IAM roles 4:36 - Demo 7:29 - Conclusion #GCP #Google_Cloud_Resource_Hierarchy #Google_Cloud_Certification 📌 Blog - https://sudipta-deb.in/2023/06/resource-hierarchy-in-google-cloud.html 📌 Youtube Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeX6D9nzyNefXN2R3FK6BmiKX-KfkJPmI ✨ Subscribe for new videos on technology every week: https://bit.ly/3vCQKpg ✨Connect with me 📌 Twitter: https://twitter.com/thesudiptadeb 📌 Website: https://www.sudipta-deb.in/ 📌 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sudiptadeb/ 📌 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TechnicalPotpourri Credit: Music I Use under the Mixkit License Disclaimer: All opinions are my own and this video content is not endorsed by Salesforce, Google or any other company in any way.
