Thanks to the multicultural skilled educated and dynamic gentry they got at the conference.

    Web telephony integration or Computer telephony integration or CTI in short, is a name for any technology that allow integration of telephony services with computer systems. Usually used for co-coordinating, managing, recording, analyzing, and maintaining call records on computer, and making the calling process more efficient.

    For example in Salesforce, imaging how easy it would be for calling agents if they can start a phone conversation with a lead just by clicking a button in lead info page.

    This a special feature available only to Salesforce.com employees. It is used mainly by their sales and technical reps to add or remove Salesforce features, for showing the capabilities of a features available only in higher orgs (in case of adding features), or troubleshooting some issue (in case of removing features).

  • I am still not sure about the question. Do you have multiple Salesforce instances on a single email location?

    Or are you owner of a managed package app that sends these mails based on error encountered by the app installer?

    In both case the best way first is to document everything. There are many tools to keep track of your org ID and user id.

    There is also License Management App that you can use to keep track of what is installed where.

    May 16, 2016 at 6:39 am in reply to: How can we increase the storage limit of our Salesforce org?

    The simplest way is to contact your Salesforce rep and ask them about prices for increasing storage limits.

    In my experience, I have seen that the prices vary quite a much based upon your account size and potential.

    Another option is to purchase a license for one more user.

    You can also consider upgrading your Salesforce instance to a better version, but that usually means investing a lot.

    Another option is to create and maintain an external database and connect your Salesforce org to it.

    May 16, 2016 at 6:31 am in reply to: Measuring Size Of output JSON of REST API?

    `@HttpGet
    global static List getAccounts() {
    List
    accounts = [select id, name from Account];
    System.debug(JSON.serialize(accounts).length());
    return accounts;
    }`

    The above code just does JSON serialisation that SF is going to do instantly, but does it in advance and records it out to the debug log. It's a bit inefficient and only for casual checking

    Realistically, I would use Snuggle from the control range as recorded here:

    May 16, 2016 at 6:22 am in reply to: Can we manage offline data within a lightning component?

    If you want to create a Salesforce1 based app and then use a lighting component for accessing device data, then sadly this feature is not available as of now. You can only store some stuff in cache and access it in offline mode but you cannot do any detailed actions. Checkout the documentation.

    May 16, 2016 at 6:19 am in reply to: Can we manage offline data within a lightning component?

    In its essence, Lightning is basically a client-side, browser based framework. It mainly deals with how the data is displayed on the page or how a user interface is presented to enable inputting of data.

    Accessing offline data, or even on cloud data is part of a backend and thus you can surely achieve it using the lighting component. However you would need a native container for web or mobile (for Android or iOS app) that would aid the component in the task.

    EDIT: I am assuming you are creating a Lightning component based visual force page or web app.

  • If you are using the exact code you have typed earlier, then unfortunately you have made a small mistake.
    You are using CAPITAL “IF”.
    JavaScript is a case sensitive language and will not recognize ‘IF’ only ‘if’
    Also it seems like you have closed your if statement a bit early. So here is the updated code
    if('{!Account.Type}' == "New" && '{!Opportunity.Ad__c}' == null){
    window.parent.location.href = "/apex/OpportunityEditOverride?id="+'{!Opportunity.Id}';
    }
    else{
    window.parent.location.href = "/"+'{!Opportunity.Id}'+"/e?retURL=%2F"+'{!Opportunity.Id}';
    }

    Also in the last line, though it is not wrong, it is not really necessay to concatenate your URLs. The following line will also work fine
    window.parent.location.href = "/apex/OpportunityEditOverride?id={!Opportunity.Id}";
