Salesforce: Stop email being sent on user creation or password reset or …
I’ve had to do this a few times but infrequently enough for me to forget how to do it each time. Forgetting things isn’t usually an issue because of our Google Overlords and their mighty The Google but it’s quite a journey down the rabbit hole to find this specific information.
The reasons it’s tricky to find is because the setting that controls whether an email is sent to the user on creation is not directly associated with users but with DML. Long story short you need to set a particular Database.DMLOption e.g.
User u = new User(); // Add some details here ... // Set the DML options Database.DMLOptions dlo = new Database.DMLOptions(); dlo.EmailHeader.triggerUserEmail = false; Database.insert(u,dlo);
Hopefully this information will now be easier to find next time I forget 🙂
Salesforce: Instantiating an SObject Dynamically at Run-time
I’m sure a lot of you have this documented somewhere but I’ve recently discovered that it’s quite difficult to find an obvious reference to this knowledge on the interwobbles. So how would you create a Generic SObject at run-time? It’s rather easy thankfully:
String sObjectName = 'MyObject__c'; Schema.SObjectType t = Schema.getGlobalDescribe().get(sObjectName); SObject s = t.newSObject();
If you require this type of functionality quite often I’d suggest putting it in a utility class.
