Request
When the generic Flow error is encountered, add a "View Offending Process Builder or Flow" link that lets one open the process builder or flow that caused the error. The link would be dynamically generated using the version ID found within the error message.
Background
When inserting or updating a record, some times you'll get a Visual Workflow aka Flow generic error message like the following:
First exception on row 0; first error: CANNOT_EXECUTE_FLOW_TRIGGER, The record couldn’t be saved because it failed to trigger a flow. A flow trigger failed to execute the flow with version ID 301i0000000LyvR. Flow error messages: An unhandled fault has occurred in this flow
An unhandled fault has occurred while processing the flow. Please contact your system administrator for more information.
Turns out that the Flow Version Id can be used to open the offending Flow or Process Builder even though when you try to open that record id directly, you get an "Insufficient Privileges" error. This Blog Post describes how to determine the offender by opening a special link using the version ID.
From Tony White on the plugin support page:
There is a thread over on stack exchange that has some code on it that I use all the time to extract data I have queried in the developer console, would be great to have that added as a function on this app
I'd suggest we add a "Export as CSV" button to the dev console row when in the Query Editor.
The API name that shows up for managed package fields is the ID of the field, and not the API name.
Replace the default Salesforce marketing on the login page with an image and quote. Similar to the Momentum extension for Google Chrome.
Only after switching to Classic can you see the counter for field history tracking
To help people know which pod they are working on (My Domain makes it harder to tell), show that number somewhere. Maybe as a favicon, on the Boostr extension icon, etc. Something!
When new features are added into the extension, it would be nice to have some sort of notification to the user what these changes are.
Right now, when enabled, underscores are removed from custom object and custom field API names. This enhancement would also remove the underscores from Custom Labels.
When loading the debug log page, indicate unseen debug logs in some way (perhaps different background color on those rows).
The "Field History Tracking Counter" (eg. "11 of 20 selected" when setting field history tracking) doesn't take into account any limit increases that have been applied to the org. Salesforce can increase the field history limit per object beyond 20, and Boostr doesn't take these into account. It always displays a maximum of 20.
The Limits REST API provides access to other org limits that aren't shown by default on the system overview page. For example, the daily single email limit. It would be awesome if these limits could be shown on the system overview page.
If ProfileDependentCheckboxes doesn't exist in the page, an error is thrown.
New Feature request. Can someone with some fab javascript skills detect when I'm pasting a Date and Time in to a Date Time field and parse out the time, drop the space, and stick the time in the time portion of the field automagically please! That would be such a time saver. Not sure if it is at all possible to do javascript on the edit page, but asking anyway.
While doing change sets, clicking anywhere in the entity row (that is, the item you're attempting to add to your change set) currently does not select that item. Doing so would be ideal.
People have reported a few issues with the API field names part of the extension.
Has anyone experienced Boostr not working wafter enhanced domains? If so, is there something that can be done to correct it?
The change set UI currently limits the number of records shown in the table to 1,000. To get around this, the metadata API can be used to retrieve all of the metadata and replace the table with a custom one. This would allow listing all records of the specified type.
In Salesforce Classic, it would be nice if clicking a row in a listview would (un)check that row's checkbox for (de)selection. It would also be nice if this worked on setup listviews.
When entering the Label for a new Custom Metadata Type, the API Name is auto-populated with underscores.
The checkall option is not visible for FLS on profiles in Lightning
Hey Matt,
I wanted to reach out to you to see if you'd be interested in releasing your add-on on addons.mozilla.org as well. From inspecting the code it should "just work" without any adaptions. You'd be encountering a few minor review policy issues that should be easy to fix. I've based this on the latest version in the Chrome store so I might have missed some changes on master:
Your add-on is creating DOM nodes from HTML strings containing potentially unsanitized data, by assigning to innerHTML, jQuery.html, or through similar means. Aside from being inefficient, this is a major security risk. For more information, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Safely_inserting_external_content_into_a_page . Here are some examples that were discovered:
Line 8 in 5756404
boostr/app/js/flowerrorlink.js
Line 11 in 5756404
Line 54 in 5756404
boostr/app/js/fieldhistorycount.js
Line 14 in 5756404
As per https://github.com/mozilla/addons-linter/blob/master/docs/third-party-libraries.md, jQuery 2.x is no longer allowed and needs to be upgraded to jQuery 3.x
When checking all for objects with a large number of fields, it is slow because of the .click() on each checkbox. The .click() is being done because Salesforce has dependent and antecedent checkboxes. This can be optimized by implementing the dependent logic Salesforce uses, but in bulk.
Ability to toggle sidebar with a keyboard shortcut. Also ability to toggle admin area sidebar (also with shortcut, and icon).
A request from a co-worker. When editing a record, when you go to navigate away, warn the user that their changes will not be saved.
When Chrome is upgraded, the options page opens because of the chrome.runtime.onInstalled. Need to change to check for previous version.
Request
Add the same searching and filtering capabilities available when adding components to a changeset to the "View/Add Dependencies" Changeset area.
Add the ability to uncheck all from page layout when adding a new field.
When setting field history tracking for an object like Account (where there are likely a lot of fields), it is hard to keep track of how many fields you have set for field history tracking. This enhancement would show the number checked / 20 near the save button so you know how many before you save and possibly get an error that you checked too many.
It would be great to have the ability to click on the boostr icon and be able to enter in a 15 char id and convert it to 18 char.
By default, it could load the Id of a record from the url if present.
Create section to display most frequently visited links that are clicked in the admin area. These could also be manually managed so someone could define which admin links they would like displayed.
Request
Currently, the "Offending Flow or Process Builder" link is only added in Salesforce Classic. It should show in Lightning (LEX) too.
When working in the setup area, there are several places where there is no checkbox in the table header, causing you to have to individually check each box in the column (eg. profile object field permissions). This enhancement would add a checkbox to the header that would toggle checking / unchecking all checkboxes in that column.
When you click to open the modal on the options page for the Field Set API Name, there is a typo. It says "respectivly" instead of "respectively".
When the setup page is opened, set focus to the setup's Search textbox by default.
