Create Quick Actions with Lightning Web Components

 

To set up a Lightning web component as a quick action on a record page, define the metadata in <component>.js-meta.xml. 

Define a lightning__RecordAction target and  specify actionType as ScreenAction for a screen action that opens in a window or Action for a headless action that executes when clicked.

callLwc.html

<template>

</template>

callLwc.js

import { LightningElement,api,track } from 'lwc';

import {ShowToastEvent} from 'lightning/platformShowToastEvent'

export default class CallLwc extends LightningElement {

@api recordId;

@api invoke(){

alert('Record Id is: '+this.recordId;

}

callLwc.js-meta.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<LightningComponentBundle xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">

<apiVersion>55.0</apiVersion>

<isExposed>true</isExposed>

<targets>

<target>lightning__RecordAction</target>

</targets>

<targetConfigs>

<targetConfig targets="lightning__RecordAction">

<actionType>Action</actionType>

</targetConfig>

</targetConfigs>

</LightningComponentBundle>

To Create Quick Action:

As we are creating this action for the Contact Record Page, it is an object-specific action.

• Navigate to the Contact Object  in Setup.
• Under Button, Links, and Actions.
• Create a new Action.
• Select LWC as Action Type.
• Select your LWC component 
• Give label to your Action
• Name will be auto Populated
• Click Save Button
• Edit the Page Layout, and select Mobile & Lightning Actions
• Drag the new Quick Action to the Lightning Experience Actions section 
• You might have to override the standard actions before you’re able to add custom actions

Testing HTTP Callouts by Implementing the HttpCalloutMock Interface in Salesforce

This is a full example that shows how to test an HTTP callout. 

CalloutClass

====================

public class CalloutClass {

public static HttpResponse getInfoFromExternalService() {

HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest();

req.setEndpoint('https://example.com/example/test');

req.setMethod('GET');

Http h = new Http();

HttpResponse res = h.send(req);

return res;

}

}

JSON2ApexMock Apex Class

==============================

 @isTest

global class JSON2ApexMock implements HttpCalloutMock {

HttpResponse res;

global JSON2ApexMock(HttpResponse r)

{

res=r;

}

global HttpResponse respond(HttpRequest req){

return res;

}

}

Callout Test Class

=====================================

@isTest

private class CalloutClassTest {

@isTest static void testCallout() {

// Create a fake response

HttpResponse res=new HttpResponse();

res.setBody('{"Description": "200"}');

res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json;charset=UTF-8');

res.setStatusCode(200);

// Set mock callout class

Test.setMock(HttpCalloutMock.class, new JSON2ApexMock(res));

// Call method to test.

// This causes a fake response to be sent

// from the class that implements HttpCalloutMock.

HttpResponse res = CalloutClass.getInfoFromExternalService();

// Verify response received contains fake values

String contentType = res.getHeader('Content-Type');

System.assert(contentType == 'application/json');

String actualValue = res.getBody();

String expectedValue = '{"Description":"200"}';

System.assertEquals(actualValue, expectedValue);

System.assertEquals(200, res.getStatusCode());

}

}

Download Files from Salesforce in zip format at once

 

In certain situations, we may need to download many files from Salesforce at once.

Simple URL hack:
By including the file's content version Ids in the URL, you may download all files in a zip archive. Everyone remarked that it is not the preferred technique, and I may call it a URL hack.

Below is the URL format that you need to use:

https://tridentpvtltd.lightning.force.com/sfc/servlet.shepherd/version/download/068aaaaaaaaaa/0684bbbbbbbbR/068cccccccccc

You may get the files as zip files by simply pasting this URL.
