Ever felt like Salesforce speak is its own language? You’re not alone.
Whether you’re new to the platform or just tired of nodding along in meetings (we see you), here’s a quick decoder for some of the most common Salesforce terms:
Did you know that Salesforce offers a range of time-saving shortcuts to streamline your workflow?
Here are a few must-know shortcuts to supercharge your productivity:
Github Copilot is a generative AI tool that can offer coding suggestions based on comments in the code, plus auto completion for current lines and entire blocks of code.
Copilot can offer multiple suggestions which can be manually accepted or rejected, boosting your development speed and precision.
The Visual Studio Code extension for Github Copilot allows you to use all of this within the editor itself, and with the Github Copilot chat extension (which uses GPT-4) and Copilot, you can use “@workspace” at the beginning of your search, allowing it to scan your local project to provide suggestions or help locate specific pieces of code, as well as clarifying error messages in the console!
Enhancing the workflow for Lightning Web Components (LWC) in Salesforce is crucial for efficient and high-quality application development.
Two tools we recommend facilitating this process are the Salesforce Scanner and the LWC Local Development plugin.
Salesforce Scanner is dedicated to ensuring code quality and adherence to best practices, while the LWC Local Development Plugin focuses on streamlining the development and testing phases.
Integrating these plugins results in improved efficiency, reliability, and quality in Salesforce LWC application development!
Struggling with siloed data in spreadsheets?
XL Connector and G Connector are products which can enhance user productivity by providing a user-friendly data manipulation solution.
They allow users to transfer data in Salesforce (or other CRMs and databases) directly from Excel or Google Sheets.
Read our new article to find out more! Read more
Did you know that, in the Spring ‘26 release, Salesforce are retiring permission sets on profiles?
Put simply, this means that permissions and access will no longer be granted via Profiles, but in Permission Sets instead.
To manage this change, Salesforce Admins will need to analyse and adjust permissions & permission assignments for their orgs in time for the updates.
Make sure to read up on the changes to help your team prepare ahead of new releases!
Universal API Management (UAPIM) on an Anypoint Platform provides users with a set of capabilities which empower them to manage the full lifecycle of their APIs.
Below are the main benefits of using UAPIM:
ACCELERATE APPLICATION DELIVERY: Compose services using any API across the enterprise — built by any team, for any purpose, for any audience.
A feature of the Salesforce Spring ’23 release, Account Discovery provides dashboards and Einstein Discovery models to help you identify Accounts with potential for growth.
It works by analysing measures such as the number of deals closed, deals open, win rate, activities and products. Each Account is assigned to a cluster based on commonalities found in these measures.
The Accounts are then benchmarked against the cohort (cluster) average and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
As a Sales Leader or Sales Rep, you can also use Account Discovery to quickly identify and prioritise at-risk Accounts, and take the necessary steps to mitigate.
It’s a powerful tool for sales teams to manage and grow their Accounts!
The strength of Salesforce lies in its seamless integration with a variety of tools and applications.
Utilising OpenAPI can significantly simplify this process. But what exactly does this mean?
Think of OpenAPI as a standardised recipe for APIs. Similar to how a recipe guides you in preparing a dish, OpenAPI provides clear instructions on how to structure and implement an API.
It is a specification that ensures APIs adhere to consistent rules and documentation standards, serving as a blueprint.
This ensures that developers can easily understand, implement, and integrate their software with a specific service, platform, or system. Using OpenAPI to establish connections is akin to following a recipe to create a 5 star meal!
It is essential to note that in order to create your own connections in Salesforce using Open API, you must have the Enterprise Salesforce license at minimum!
Apex Code Coverage Visualiser for VS Code empowers Salesforce developers to write high-quality, well-tested code by providing a clear and interactive overview of test coverage directly within the familiar VS Code environment.
With this tool, developers can ensure the reliability and robustness of their Apex code while optimising their testing processes.
This extension allows you to see class coverage metrics, visualise a coverage report, interactive exploration and filtering, and provide seamless integration.
Enhance the user experience by creating personalised reports with dynamic filters.
Set a dynamic report filter on the user field to tailor results for the running user:
Simply choose “Use relative value” when filtering on user fields and watch as $USER is automatically populated into the value field!
The report will show only the Opportunities the viewer has created!
Did you know that every few years, OWASP makes a top 10 list of the top security issues in development?
They most recently published a Top 10 web application security risks in 2021, which includes among other flaws broken access control, cryptographic failures, and injection.
In 2023, they published a Top 10 API security list which includes broken object level authorisation, broken authentication, and broken property level authorisation as the top 3 security vulnerabilities in API development.
Custom Metadata Types in Salesforce offer a transformative approach for app developers, enabling the seamless storage and management of application configurations.
Unlike their counterpart, Custom Settings, Custom Metadata records stand out for their deployability, packageability, and upgradeability. This distinction is particularly beneficial in the context of managed package development.
Furthermore, one standout feature of Custom Metadata is its ability to expose configuration directly to Admins, eliminating the need for code modifications. Thus, Admins can effortlessly customise app behaviour to align with specific business requirements by simply updating Custom Metadata used in the application.
This flexibility allows developers to craft applications that are not only more dynamic, but also highly adaptable. Said adaptability is extremely powerful for enhancing an application’s utility and scalability.
Now, you can take customisation to the next level with custom text and images.
Personalise your dashboards like never before: Add tailored messages to highlight key metrics.
Incorporate images to make your data stories more engaging.
Create dashboards that truly reflect your brand and resonate with your audience.

Just add the “Send Email” element in Flow or create an Email Alert in Process Builder.
Quick to set up. Huge time-saver
Ever felt like Salesforce speak is its own language? You’re not alone.
Whether you’re new to the platform or just tired of nodding along in meetings (we see you), here’s a quick decoder for some of the most common Salesforce terms:
Did you know that Salesforce offers a range of time-saving shortcuts to streamline your workflow?
Here are a few must-know shortcuts to supercharge your productivity:
Github Copilot is a generative AI tool that can offer coding suggestions based on comments in the code, plus auto completion for current lines and entire blocks of code.
Copilot can offer multiple suggestions which can be manually accepted or rejected, boosting your development speed and precision.
The Visual Studio Code extension for Github Copilot allows you to use all of this within the editor itself, and with the Github Copilot chat extension (which uses GPT-4) and Copilot, you can use “@workspace” at the beginning of your search, allowing it to scan your local project to provide suggestions or help locate specific pieces of code, as well as clarifying error messages in the console!
Enhancing the workflow for Lightning Web Components (LWC) in Salesforce is crucial for efficient and high-quality application development.

Did you know that, in the Spring ‘26 release, Salesforce are retiring permission sets on profiles?
Put simply, this means that permissions and access will no longer be granted via Profiles, but in Permission Sets instead.
To manage this change, Salesforce Admins will need to analyse and adjust permissions & permission assignments for their orgs in time for the updates.
Make sure to read up on the changes to help your team prepare ahead of new releases!
Universal API Management (UAPIM) on an Anypoint Platform provides users with a set of capabilities which empower them to manage the full lifecycle of their APIs.
Below are the main benefits of using UAPIM:
ACCELERATE APPLICATION DELIVERY: Compose services using any API across the enterprise — built by any team, for any purpose, for any audience.
A feature of the Salesforce Spring ’23 release, Account Discovery provides dashboards and Einstein Discovery models to help you identify Accounts with potential for growth.
It works by analysing measures such as the number of deals closed, deals open, win rate, activities and products. Each Account is assigned to a cluster based on commonalities found in these measures.
The Accounts are then benchmarked against the cohort (cluster) average and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
As a Sales Leader or Sales Rep, you can also use Account Discovery to quickly identify and prioritise at-risk Accounts, and take the necessary steps to mitigate.
It’s a powerful tool for sales teams to manage and grow their Accounts!
The strength of Salesforce lies in its seamless integration with a variety of tools and applications.
Utilising OpenAPI can significantly simplify this process. But what exactly does this mean?
Think of OpenAPI as a standardised recipe for APIs. Similar to how a recipe guides you in preparing a dish, OpenAPI provides clear instructions on how to structure and implement an API.
It is a specification that ensures APIs adhere to consistent rules and documentation standards, serving as a blueprint.
This ensures that developers can easily understand, implement, and integrate their software with a specific service, platform, or system. Using OpenAPI to establish connections is akin to following a recipe to create a 5 star meal!
It is essential to note that in order to create your own connections in Salesforce using Open API, you must have the Enterprise Salesforce license at minimum!
Apex Code Coverage Visualiser for VS Code empowers Salesforce developers to write high-quality, well-tested code by providing a clear and interactive overview of test coverage directly within the familiar VS Code environment.
With this tool, developers can ensure the reliability and robustness of their Apex code while optimising their testing processes.
This extension allows you to see class coverage metrics, visualise a coverage report, interactive exploration and filtering, and provide seamless integration.
Enhance the user experience by creating personalised reports with dynamic filters.
Set a dynamic report filter on the user field to tailor results for the running user:

Did you know that every few years, OWASP makes a top 10 list of the top security issues in development?
They most recently published a Top 10 web application security risks in 2021, which includes among other flaws broken access control, cryptographic failures, and injection.
In 2023, they published a Top 10 API security list which includes broken object level authorisation, broken authentication, and broken property level authorisation as the top 3 security vulnerabilities in API development.
Custom Metadata Types in Salesforce offer a transformative approach for app developers, enabling the seamless storage and management of application configurations.
Unlike their counterpart, Custom Settings, Custom Metadata records stand out for their deployability, packageability, and upgradeability. This distinction is particularly beneficial in the context of managed package development.
Furthermore, one standout feature of Custom Metadata is its ability to expose configuration directly to Admins, eliminating the need for code modifications. Thus, Admins can effortlessly customise app behaviour to align with specific business requirements by simply updating Custom Metadata used in the application.
This flexibility allows developers to craft applications that are not only more dynamic, but also highly adaptable. Said adaptability is extremely powerful for enhancing an application’s utility and scalability.
Einstein Search is an AI-powered search capability that allows users to quickly find relevant information across Salesforce objects, records, and files.

Curious about how developers minimise API calls and securely manage access tokens? In Salesforce, caching plays a pivotal role, enhancing Org security while empowering architects to craft efficient systems.
What is Platform Cache in Salesforce? Platform Cache is a memory layer that store’s Salesforce session and org data for later access.
“Platform Cache” is just like a RAM for your app. With Platform Cache, your applications can run faster because they store reusable data in memory.
“Platform Cache” is used to to store Static Data, complex computations and Frequently used dataType of Platform Cache1)
Org Cache :- Org wide data for anyone in the org2)
Session Cache :- Data for a specific user stored up to 8 hours
REST APIs are a widely used way to send and receive data from a server on the internet. Requests are sent to a REST endpoint using HTTP and are designed to provide data or access on demand for anyone sending a request and the client and server are independent of one another. Responses from a REST endpoint are typically returned in JSON format.
Most APIs with Salesforce use REST and custom endpoints can be exposed using REST.GraphQL is a newer system for API endpoints designed to improve on certain shortcomings of REST.
It is a query language that allows clients to send a request to an endpoint for the specific data that they need rather than getting all data from the endpoint. Similar to REST, a request is sent to an endpoint over HTTP and a response is returned as JSON.
GraphQL was introduced into Salesforce with the Winter ’23 update!
The Salesforce Summer ‘24 Release brings even more power to Flow — making it easier than ever to automate, customise, and scale your processes.

Salesforce has enhanced the Choice Lookup component in Flow Builder, now allowing it to accept multiple selections (up to 25 choices) rather than just a single selection. This update adds significant flexibility to business processes, particularly in scenarios like assigning multiple tasks to team members.
Previously, only the standard Lookup component allowed multiple selections, making this a valuable improvement for users who need to handle multiple-choice options efficiently.
This feature is available in both Lightning Experience and Salesforce Classic across Professional, Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer editions. However, it’s important to note that it’s not supported in the Classic runtime for flows.
Why is it Important? For example, in a screen flow used by project managers to assign tasks, they can now select multiple tasks in one go, streamlining their workflow. Before this update, they were limited to selecting only one task at a time, which could be time-consuming for larger projects.
To enable this feature, go to the Screen element in Flow Builder, add the Choice Lookup component, and set “Let Users Select Multiple Options” to “Yes.” You can then add the necessary choice resources to accommodate the selection of up to 25 options.
This update is particularly useful for improving the efficiency of flows that require multi-select capabilities, making Salesforce more adaptable to complex business needs.
The Salesforce Lightning Grid System is a powerful Chrome extension built to simplify the process of creating responsive grid layouts for Lightning Web Components (LWCs). Whether you’re developing with SLDS UI, Aura, or LWCs, this tool offers a streamlined solution to manage layouts efficiently across devices and screen sizes.
Key Features:
This code can be directly copied and integrated into your project, saving time and ensuring consistency with Salesforce’s design standards.
As of the Winter ’25 Salesforce Release, developers are now able to leverage composite REST requests when interacting with an Orgs data via the Salesforce SObject API. This functionality allows developers to wrap a series of multiple sub-requests together into one API call. In certain situations this could be a boon for efficiency, performance, and reducing the number of API limits used in calls, as the number of round server trips needed can now be reduced.
These sub-requests can also be chained to allow for the output of one request to be used in a following sub-request. This, combined with the ability to mix different operation types (All CRUD – creating, updating, deleting, and retrieving) means that complex requests that are dependant on one another are able to be executed in one single API call.
For example, you could now update an Account, create a new Contact, and then link them via a junction object all within one single REST request!
Extremely powerful functionality to integrate into your existing or new systems for improvements in efficiency, performance, as well as affording you savings on your Org’s API call limits.

Formstack’s Form Builder, integrated with Salesforce, offers a powerful solution for streamlining data collection and improving user engagement. Its no-code, drag-and-drop interface makes form creation simple, while the conditional logic feature takes it to the next level.
Conditional logic allows you to dynamically show or hide fields based on user responses, creating a more personalised and relevant experience. This not only reduces form abandonment but ensures that the data collected is accurate and actionable.
When connected to Salesforce, the integration enables direct data syncing, meaning leads, contacts, or cases can be automatically created or updated in real time.
Conditional logic also supports more intelligent workflows by guiding users through tailored form pathways, triggering automated processes, and improving lead routing. The result is more efficient data collection, better user experience, and seamless alignment with your Salesforce operations!
The new Action Buttons feature in Screen Flows introduces a major leap forward in building responsive, single-page applications within Salesforce. By enabling users to trigger actions and process logic without leaving the current screen, this feature helps you streamline workflows and dramatically improve the user experience.

This means faster interactions, fewer clicks, and a more seamless experience for users, whether you’re building internal tools for your team or customer-facing flows.
Implementation is simple: just drag an Action Button onto your flow screen, define what it does, and connect it to your data or logic. No Apex required.
Salesforce Inspector Reloaded is an extension for Chrome and Firefox which is built upon the original Salesforce Inspector extension and is a drop-in replacement for the original version. It improves it with several additional features for improved controls and security.
With this extension you can:
Enable use with API Client Whitelisting/API Access Control by setting up a connected app allowing for restricting access to specific users
The Salesforce Models API empowers developers by offering direct access to large language models in a highly flexible and customisable manner. It complements Salesforce’s suite of tools by allowing users to design workflows that fully align with their specific business goals, unrestricted by default functionality.
A key highlight here is the ability to leverage Salesforce’s “Bring Your Own Model” capability, which allows you to seamlessly integrate custom-trained models to be accessed via the API.
One great feature is the API’s ability to generate embeddings, these powerful vector representations can be stored in your Org. A good use case for this functionality would be reducing the overhead of LLM queries by implementing spacial comparisons such as dot product comparisons directly in your Org.
This would enable faster, more efficient matching in situations such as semantic search, recommendations, and personalised user interactions!
