Some great new features released. Here are a few of our favourites.
Dynamic Gauge Charts
Dynamically update gauge target performance values with values from the underlying report. Without this feature the target performance value had to be manually updated. Details here.
Control access to sensitive data
Previously some record visibility was exclusively governed by the parent record visibility. For example, a Task or Event’s visibility is based on the related Account’s visibility. If the Account publicly visible so were the child tasks and events.
This update allows for a further level of restrictions to be applied. Details here.
Org-specific performance analysis of lightning page performance
Lightning page performance has been a user bugbear from day 1. This tool gives you Org-specific metrics on page performance during the last 90 days. This highlights the worst and best performing pages. Details here.
Dynamic interactions
Javascript developers will know about dynamic interactions in which an action in one part of a page will cause a different but related part to change. This can now be in Salesforce. Developers can write LWC which can then be exposed in the Lightning App Builder. Admins can then configure these in the page builder. Details here.
Restriction rules
Restriction rules enable better visibility control over some objects. For example, tasks and events inherit permissions from the parent object they are related to, such as an Account record. If the Account is publicly visible so will be the child events and tasks. By using restrictions rules visibility can be limited in various ways such as limiting permissions to only the task record owners. Details here.
Flows
There is a lot to unpack. Not least of which is all things Flow. Flow is set to be the future for workflow automation and will completely supplant Process Builder at some point.
