Salesforce Simplified Chrome Extension: A Must-Have Tool for Salesforce Developers

Point-to-point features with description:

• Recent components: Displays a list of recently created or modified components, such as debug logs, classes, pages, components, triggers, objects, fields, labels, workflows, flows, email templates, static resources, Vlocity Omniscripts, Dataraptors, Cards, Templates, Actions, Products, Communications, and Health and Insurance objects.

Use: This feature can save users time and effort by eliminating the need to search for these components manually. For example, if a Salesforce administrator is working on a custom object, they can use the recent components feature to quickly access the object's definition, fields, and relationships.

• Advanced search: Allows users to search for components using a variety of criteria, such as name, type, date created, and date modified.

Use: This feature is helpful for finding specific components quickly and easily. For example, if a Vlocity developer is looking for a specific Vlocity Omniscript, they can use the advanced search feature to search for Omniscripts by name, type, or date created.

• Quick access to component details: Allows users to view the details of any component, such as its definition, fields, and relationships, with a single click.

Use: This feature can save users time and effort by eliminating the need to navigate to different screens to view component details. For example, if a Salesforce consultant is troubleshooting a custom field, they can use the quick access to component details feature to quickly view the field's definition, data type, and validation rules.

• Ability to open components in a new tab: Allows users to open any component in a new tab, which can be helpful for working on multiple components simultaneously.

Use: For example, if a Salesforce developer is working on a new Apex class, they can use the ability to open components in a new tab feature to open the class definition and the class test in two separate tabs.

• Ability to copy the component's ID to the clipboard: Allows users to copy the ID of any component to the clipboard, which can be helpful for sharing component IDs with other users or for troubleshooting issues.

Use: For example, if a Salesforce administrator is creating a new workflow rule, they can use the ability to copy the component's ID to the clipboard feature to copy the ID of the workflow rule and share it with another administrator for review.

• Ability to view the component's history: Allows users to view the history of any component, such as when it was created, modified, and deleted.

Use: This feature can be helpful for troubleshooting issues or for understanding the evolution of a component over time. For example, if a Vlocity developer is working on an Omniscript that is not behaving as expected, they can use the ability to view the component's history feature to see when the Omniscript was last modified and what changes were made.

• Ability to delete the component: Allows users to delete current user debug logs records directly from the extension, without having to navigate to the Salesforce UI.

Use: This feature can be helpful for quickly deleting components that are no longer needed. For example, if a Salesforce administrator is cleaning up their Salesforce org, they can use the ability to delete the component feature to quickly delete any unused custom objects, fields, and workflows.

Recent Data/Metadata

Yes, the Salesforce Simplified Chrome Extension shows recent data for the current user, as well as for all users in different sections. You can also change the user to view data for other users as well.

To view recent data for all users in a particular section, simply click on the section name in the extension's sidebar. For example, to view recent debug logs for all users, click on the "Debug Logs" section.

To view recent data for a specific user, simply click on the user's name in the extension's sidebar. For example, to view recent Apex classes for a specific user, click on the user's name, and then click on the "Apex Classes" section.

To change the user to view data for other users, click on the "Change User" button in the extension's sidebar. This will open a modal dialog where you can select the user whose data you want to view.

Once you have selected a user, the extension will automatically refresh and show the most recent data for that user.

This feature is helpful for Salesforce administrators who need to view and manage data for multiple users. For example, a Salesforce administrator could use this feature to view the most recent debug logs for all users in their org, or to view the most recent Apex classes for a specific user.

Here is an example of how to use this feature to view the most recent debug logs for all users in your org:

1. Open the Salesforce Simplified Chrome Extension.
2. Click on the "Debug Logs" section in the extension's sidebar.
3. The extension will display a list of the most recent debug logs for all users in your org.
4. You can click on any debug log to view more details.

You can use this same process to view the most recent data for any other type of component, such as Apex classes, pages, components, triggers, objects, fields, labels, workflows, flows, email templates, static resources, Vlocity Omniscripts, Dataraptors, Cards, Templates, Actions, Products, Communications, and Health and Insurance objects.

Overall, the ability to view recent data for all users is a valuable feature of the Salesforce Simplified Chrome Extension. It can save Salesforce administrators a lot of time and effort, and make them more productive.
