*The following article is for a tool that will only work in the Lightning Experience. If you use Classic, this is still relevant, you will just need to temporarily flip over.* Maybe you have had that moment where you think that this profile would actually be much better as permission set.

My first real Dreamforce – 2018

October 9, 2018January 21, 2022 ~ sf9to5 ~ Leave a comment

This year I got lucky enough to get a full pass for Dreamforce, which meant it was my first time really getting to go - I don't count just going to the expo. I went for two days, Wednesday and Thursday, as I was not staying in San Fransisco and could only handle so much … Continue reading My first real Dreamforce – 2018

Review: Code Search Chrome Plugin

October 2, 2018January 21, 2022 ~ sf9to5 ~ 1 Comment

One of the things that always irked me about the Salesforce Setup was the lack of ability to search the code in the system.

September 18, 2018January 21, 2022 ~ sf9to5 ~ Leave a comment

This has become a bit of a thing that I do when a new release comes out. It seems that most folks focus on the Lightning side of the release notes, which makes sense since the majority of the new features are geared that way. However, there are still so many companies out there that … Continue reading The Classic Side of Winter ’19 release

I recently passed the Platform Developer 1 cert from Salesforce. I have to contribute quite a bit of that success to the FocusonForce practice exams. I have previously written a review about the FocusonForce practice exams and I wanted to bring an updated review based on the Platform Developer 1 practices.

My journey to becoming a DevAdmin

August 26, 2018January 21, 2022 ~ sf9to5 ~ 2 Comments

Last year, while looking through LinkedIn, a trend I had previously noticed, was suddenly becoming even more prominent. Jobs that were labeled as Salesforce Admin positions, even those which require only a few years of experience, are asking for candidates who at a minimum had some knowledge or experience with APEX or even Web APIs … Continue reading My journey to becoming a DevAdmin
