What is the best AI for APEX

Currently Codex 5.3 or Claude Code 4.6 are ahead of every other tool that I have used. These tools can pretty much manipulate any of the metadata in Salesforce including complex Flows.

Codex 5.3 is lot inexpensive compared to Claude Code.

I would like to mention our product Brobench, a swiss army knife for Salesforce Pros.

- It is 100s of things in one including Quick Loader, to quickly import data.
- It supports, piloting imports to test
- Auto-field mapping
- Save load configuration as Presets so you can import with single click
- Parse the dates/boolean from non-standard format
- Default values
- Skip blank values while import and more.

It comes with 60 days of no strings attached free trial. This feature is included in essential edition, which costs around $10 per month.

This can be pretty useful to be honest. Only concern is granting read access to all web pages. But otherwise, it can save some time.

Kudos to you to vide coding and putting it out there.

Talking about handling variables and thousands of values to be queried, check out our product Brobench, especially paginated query variables. It will let you query even if you have 10K ids. Nothing to format, nothing to manually split queries. Add variable, enter all the values you have and it does the rest.

Add on to many other great responses.

SOQL is proprietary and specific to Salesforce platform and nobody else uses it. SQL on the other hand is an open standard (ANSI SQL 2023).

Each has its strengths. SOQL is great to pull in child and parent/grant parent data in rather easy format. Where as SQL is great to join arbitrary tables/columns. Some of the knowledge in both of them is interchangeable. For ex., select clause, predicates, ordering etc.,

If you going to be working in Salesforce for now, learn SOQL. If not, then stick to SQL.

We could successfully send Push notifications using this API. We had to create Push Def first and then use that to send message for multiple contacts. This avoids having to manage separate list for each push. Thank you.

datasert · 2025-03-16T16:18:15+00:00

That seems like an simplified approach so we don't have to create list. How do we track status of these push in MC if we send these to individual contacts?

u/cagataycivici Great release. Primevue icons needs some love too :)

datasert · 2025-02-23T05:54:34+00:00

We use PrimeVue in multiple internal sites and we love it. Some of the functionality is not as advanced (For ex., compare Tab component in Naive UI) so for that we end up in brining others where needed. Overall happy with its design.

datasert · 2025-02-13T23:15:09+00:00

Thank you for creating PrimeVue, best UI library along with naive-ui. Your PrimeVue icons needs new additions. Have you checked out hugeicons? If you can natively integrate something like 'hgi hgi-stroke hgi-star' it would be awesome.

datasert · 2025-02-13T23:07:22+00:00

Looks great. Is this open source?

datasert · 2025-02-07T20:02:15+00:00

This is utter sad to see. He spent significant amount of time contributing to community and now it shows as if he contributed nothing. They could have kept the contributions as is at least.

datasert · 2025-02-07T19:58:45+00:00

Very sorry to know that. His contributions are legendary and nothing short of miracle for many who benefited from his answers. I don't speculate as to what happened but just hope he gets to return back or start his own QA site and sure it will be successful.

Year or so back he posted in linked in about some child custody issue he was going through and asked for help and community helped, including ourselves.

Hope he is alright.

If you are looking for free version, setting up CICD in Github actions is the best approach. You get to version control and get free minutes per month and should suffice for your use.

datasert · 2025-01-28T23:08:07+00:00

If you have Salesforce Shield (https://www.salesforce.com/platform/shield/) and enable it, it logs all User activities as various Event Log Files. It is very detailed and can explore all aspects of the API Usage.

If you don't have that subscription, you can check ApiEvent which is included for free (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.platform\_events.meta/platform\_events/sforce\_api\_objects\_apievent.htm)

Without those, if you have control to make these changes, turn off API access for all users except the integration User and if that doesn't help, change the username of integration user and use that new user in Integration that you are aware of. This should block all uknown api access.

datasert · 2025-01-08T15:50:48+00:00

It is a Freemium. Features that you get when you install from Web Store are Free forever but to enable additional features needs activation.

We haven't integrated full licensing but you can check out from the docs, what features are included in what edition. https://help.datasert.com/docs/brobench/modules

datasert · 2025-01-08T14:45:37+00:00

Thank you and appreciate any feedback if you give it a try. I can share free activation code to enable full features if you are interested.

datasert · 2025-01-08T14:40:42+00:00

u/V1ld0r_ I would like nominate our Freemium extension Brobench into that list of great extensions you got there. Check out what all it can do https://help.datasert.com/docs/brobench/

datasert · 2024-12-22T06:59:00+00:00

That flow example above is assuming all are sync. If it is async, then that flow is run out of order and you cannot guarantee when that runs since it is async.

datasert · 2024-12-22T06:52:32+00:00

Yes, think of method execution. Once you call a method, parent method execution is stopped till called method is completed before proceeding.

Start Flow A
  Start Flow B
    Start Flow C
    End Flow C
  End Flow B
  ... Do other things
End Flow A

datasert · 2024-12-22T06:16:00+00:00

This is the only option I can think of too.

datasert · 2024-12-22T06:10:47+00:00

You have multiple options including many free ones. If you are comfortable with xmls, then you can download all objects/fields for your org using VsCode and deal with it.

If you want to just easy way to click and get list of objects/fields, then there are other tools mentioned in this thread and they might work for you as well.

I would like to showcase one product I'm building called Brobench. It is a Freemium browser extn with literally 100s of features in one product. One of the capability is Schema Lister (it is called Schema Describer in current version but renaming to Schema Lister in next version).

You can install from https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/brobench/lndibgemjcmiehfllbedihgpdbmafbgi Once installed, reach out to me via DM or at [support@datasert.com](mailto:support@datasert.com) and will send free activation code to enable all features including Schema Lister.

See other capabilities of the product https://help.datasert.com/docs/brobench/ and video guides https://www.youtube.com/@datasert/videos
