Create a WhatsApp Channel in Service Cloud(Salesforce)



Create a Messaging channel to let your support team help customers over WhatsApp. Customers message your company from the WhatsApp mobile or desktop app, and agents reply from the Service Console.

SetUp Enhance WhatsApp Channel:

To set up an enhanced WhatsApp channel, go to the Messaging Settings in Setup and select Messaging. Click on New Channel and choose WhatsApp, then Enhanced. Follow the instructions to create or select a Meta Business Account, a WhatsApp Business Account, and a WhatsApp Business Profile. Verify your WhatsApp Business phone number and click OK when notified that you’re ready to chat. Choose how to route incoming messages to agents, and customize the user experience for agents and customers.

To create a standard WhatsApp channel, go to Facebook Business Manager and find your Business Manager ID. Send an email to whatsappenablement@salesforce.com with your Salesforce org ID, Facebook Business Manager ID, phone number, and other information. After a few days of processing, Salesforce contacts you to finalize your WhatsApp Messaging channel.

Before creating a WhatsApp channel in Service Cloud, review important considerations, such as channel limitations and notification types. You can also test your WhatsApp channel to make sure it's working properly.

Sharing records by Apex in Salesforce

  Greetings, everyone! In today's session, we'll delve into the topic of sharing records within an Apex class. As we're aware, there exist various methods through which we can accomplish the sharing of records. We engage in record sharing primarily when the object's Organization Wide Default (OWD) settings are set to private. Sharing settings come into play when certain predefined criteria are met, allowing us to extend access to records to designated groups or roles. In cases where intricate logic is involved, manual sharing is employed. While this approach proves beneficial for specific records, instances where a multitude of records require automated handling, Apex sharing becomes the preferred solution. Salesforce offers a 'Share' object for each type of object, with distinct naming conventions: For standard objects, it's 'StandardobjectName+Share', such as 'AccountShare' for the 'Account' object.

Capture Real time data using CDC(Change Data Capture) in Salesforce | SF Fact #05

Change Data Capture (CDC) enables receiving near-real-time updates for Salesforce records and synchronizing them with an external data store. CDC publishes change events that reflect modifications to Salesforce records, including new records, updates, deletions, and undeletions. These events can be subscribed to in a Lightning Web Component (LWC) using the Emp API. To meet the business requirement of creating a task whenever a user manually changes an opportunity's status to "Closed Won," use CDC events and a generic LWC on the opportunity record page. This solution avoids the need for Apex triggers or record-triggered flows. How to enable CDC? Go to setup Search Change Data Capture Add Entities The  lightning/empApi  module provides access to methods for subscribing to a streaming channel and listening to event messages.
