This field will be updated with current timestamp when the record is created or edited by Salesforce user. This field also has a very unique feature i.e. this field can be imported with some previous date. Let’s say you want to load data from your old legacy system, but you want to preserve the dates from your legacy system. In this situation, you can load the records from your legacy system into Salesforce by updating the LastModifiedDate field with the previous date.SystemModStamp:This is a read-only field. This field will be updated with current timestamp when the record is updated by the user. But the important difference is that this field will also be updated when the record is updated by Automated System Process. So in mathematical term -LastModifiedDate <= SystemModStamp    This is possible.LastModifiedDate > SystemModStamp ...

Built specifically for Salesforce languages and frameworks, Einstein for Developers is able to generate Apex code using natural language. Support for LWC is coming soon. In this blog, we will explore how to get started with Einstein for Apex development and how its potential can revolutionize your development process. ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 0:01 - Introduction 0:34 - Enable Einstein for Developers 0:58 - Configure Visual Studio Code 1:54 - Demo 7:55 - My Opinion 8:08 - Conclusion 📌 Salesforce Winter 24 Release Playlist - https://bit.ly/3P0bun0 📌 Salesforce Summer 23 Release Playlist - https://bit.ly/3Mw6rbx #salesforce #generativeai #einstein #visualstudio #artificialintelligence ✨ Blog: https://www.sudipta-deb.in/ ✨ 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.
Welcome to the Winter ’24 Release! Salesforce Release is the process by which Salesforce updates its software platform to add new features, enhancements, and bug fixes. Salesforce releases typically occur three times a year, in spring, summer, and winter, and are named after the season in which they are released. In this video, I am going to share how you can transform collections of data between flow resources with the new Transform element in Flow Builder. I have a dedicated video where I have shown how to use this new element but in today's video, I am going to show you how to use this new element to transform and create multiple records within Salesforce Flow. Where: This change applies to Lightning Experience and Salesforce Classic in Essentials, Professional, Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer editions. ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 0:01 - Introduction 0:47 - Use Case Explanation 1:44 - Demo 8:55 - Conclusion 📌 Salesforce Winter 24 Release | Transform Your Data in Flows - https://youtu.be/d5V7bL6gnUc 📌 Salesforce Winter 24 Release Playlist - https://bit.ly/3P0bun0 📌 Salesforce Summer 23 Release Playlist - https://bit.ly/3Mw6rbx Display Custom Error Messages for Record Triggered Flows - https://bit.ly/3snudQv 📌 Salesforce Flow Playlist - https://bit.ly/3nIpTnT 📌 Rollback Records in Salesforce Flow - https://youtu.be/a0gfei_smaE 📌 New Admin Features of Salesforce Summer '23 Release - https://youtu.be/QETKVtNU_xo 📌 New Flow Features of Salesforce Summer '23 Release - https://youtu.be/ruD3mP5WRq8 📌 HTTP Post Call From Salesforce Flow - https://youtu.be/UCHQmkVq7yo 📌 Summer 23 Release | How To Add Named Credentials To Permission Set Using Principals - https://youtu.be/53q3I-bJobk 📌 External Services in Flow - HTTP Callout - https://youtu.be/n-vHAqr6KiI 📌 Salesforce Release Playlist - https://bit.ly/3r7F0cn 📌 How To Secure Apex Code With User Mode Database Operations - https://youtu.be/1agImQ1MWJs #salesforce #winter24release #flow #errormessage #screenflow #transformdata #mapdata ✨ Blog: https://www.sudipta-deb.in/ ✨ 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.

Salesforce releases typically occur three times a year, in spring, summer, and winter, and are named after the season in which they are released. In this video, I am going to share how you can perform HTTP GET and POST Call from Salesforce Flow. If you can’t GET enough with HTTP Callout, now you can use the POST method to send Salesforce data to an external server in Flow Builder. This feature, now generally available, includes some changes since the Summer ’23 release. More easily integrate external data with the new PUT, PATCH, and DELETE methods. Give more context about HTTP callout parameters, validate JSON samples faster, and get more information about the external service registration with more organized sections of parameters.
