Sharing resources
More Information: Salesforce is set up more like an apartment building. Your company has its own space in the cloud, but you have all kinds of neighbors, from mom-and-pop shops to multinational corporations. This idea is multitenancy. Multitenancy is a great word for making you sound smart at dinner parties, but really all it means is that you’re sharing resources. Salesforce provides a core set of services to all our customers in the multitenant cloud. No matter the size of your business, you get access to the same computing power, data storage, and core features. Trust and multitenancy go hand in hand. Despite the fact that you’re sharing space with other companies, you can trust Salesforce to keep your data secure. You can also trust that you’re getting the latest and greatest features with automatic, seamless upgrades three times a year. Since Salesforce is a cloud service, you never have to install new features or worry about your hardware. All this is possible because of multitenancy. |

- Data about data
- All standard and custom configurations, functionality, and code in your org
More Information: To put it simply, metadata is data about data. Wait. That’s not simple at all. When we say data about data, we’re really talking about the structure of your Salesforce org. Let’s think about an object like Property. When our friends at DreamHouse use Salesforce, they input and view data about properties. For example, a property can be located in Boston, cost $500,000, and have 3 bedrooms. Now, imagine you stripped away all that specific data. What are you left with? You are left with the Property object along with all its fields, like address, price, and number of bedrooms. You can also have page layouts, security settings, and any other customizations you’ve made. All of these standard and custom configurations, functionality, and code in your org are metadata. Part of the reason you can move so fast on the platform is that Salesforce knows how to store and serve you that metadata immediately after you create it. |

What are APIs?
- All standard and custom configurations, functionality, and code in your org
- APIs compress data to be transmitted over the network.
- APIs allow Salesforce approved pieces of software to connect to each other and exchange information.
- APIs allow different pieces of software to connect to each other and exchange information.

APIs allow different pieces of software to connect to each other and exchange information
More Information: Fundamentally, APIs allow different pieces of software to connect to each other and exchange information. If that sounds kind of abstract, take a quick look at the computer you’re working on right now. You can probably find a series of ports of various shapes and sizes that support different kinds of connections. These are like the hardware version of APIs. You don’t have to know how the USB port works. All you have to understand is that when you plug your phone into a USB port, it passes information to your computer. APIs are similar. Without knowing the details, you can connect your apps with other apps or software systems. The underlying technology takes care of the specifics of how information passes throughout the system. |

When you add a custom object or field, the platform automatically creates an API name that serves as an access point between your org and the database.
More Information: When you add a custom object or field, the platform automatically creates an API name that serves as an access point between your org and the database. Salesforce uses that API name to retrieve the metadata and data you’re looking for. For example, we can use a contact’s Name field in a bunch of places, like the Salesforce mobile app, a custom page, or even an email template. That’s all possible because of the API name.

In developing a good AppExchange strategy is the following statement true or false?
Identify departments that use or plan to use Salesforce. These are your secondary stakeholders. |
|
Definition
False
More Information: Follow these steps to develop a good AppExchange strategy.
- Identify departments that use or plan to use Salesforce. These are your primary stakeholders.
- Research what’s available on AppExchange that best meets your stakeholder requirements. Discuss business cases with department heads to determine exact needs. Here are some good questions to ask:
- What business problem are you trying to solve?
- What are your main pain points right now?
- How many users need this app?
- What's your budget?
- What’s your time line?
These questions help you identify apps that are the best fit for each department or business case.
- When you find an app that you think meets your needs, download the app in a test environment (like a free Developer Edition or sandbox). Ensure that the app you’re installing doesn’t interfere with any other apps you’ve installed or customizations you’ve made.
Note: Sandboxes are copies of your organization in a separate environment. They’re used for development and testing.
- If you’re choosing between multiple apps, take some time to evaluate what you’ve tested. Determine whether there are feature gaps or unwanted functionality. If necessary, invite your stakeholders to demo the apps and provide feedback.
- You’re ready to go! You’ll install and deploy your app in your production environment. Make sure you keep your users in the loop about what’s changing, and provide training and documentation as necessary.

- Where do I install the app, production or sandbox?
- Do I give app permissions to admins only, all users, or specific profiles?
More Information: Let’s say you find a great app on AppExchange that gives you a fancy set of dashboards for your org. To install the app, click Get It Now. This button takes you to the installation wizard that guides you through the steps. Here are two key questions you need to answer during the installation process:
Q: Where do I install the app, production or sandbox? A: In general, it’s a best practice to first install apps in a nonproduction environment like a sandbox or Developer Edition org. Testing the app first helps you avoid conflicts in production with things like object names.
Q: Do I give app permissions to admins only, all users, or specific profiles? A: That depends on who the app is for. If you want to limit access to a particular set of users, plan to modify those user profiles before you install the app.

What are the the two main methods of importing data into Salesforce?
- Data Wizard
- Data Onboarder
- Workbench
- Data Import Tool
- Eclipse
- Data Loader
|
|
Definition
- Data Import Wizard—this tool, accessible through the Setup menu, lets you import data in common standard objects, such as contacts, leads, accounts, as well as data in custom objects. It can import up to 50,000 records at a time. It provides a simple interface to specify the configuration parameters, data sources, and the field mappings that map the field names in your import file with the field names in Salesforce.
- Data Loader—this is a client application that can import up to five million records at a time, of any data type, either from files or a database connection. It can be operated either through the user interface or the command line. In the latter case, you need to specify data sources, field mappings, and other parameters via configuration files. This makes it possible to automate the import process, using API calls.
NOTE< /BR>
With both methods, the number of records you can import depends on your permissions, the type of data you’re importing, and the overall data storage limits for your organization. The type of objects you can import depends on your edition. |
