AGENDA UPDATED *** Our first meeting back after the summer holidays is to be held on 11th September.
About this event
Our first meeting back after the summer holidays is to be held on 11th September. And yes, we chose this date to commemorate the sending of the first ever electrical telegraph (the first ever electrical communication, superseding semaphore). The message was sent from San Francisco to Pt Lobos, California in 1853 .
OK, that was a coincidence, but strangely fitting given that Salesforce uses technology built on this techological foundation.
We are still to finalise the programme, but with summer fast approaching we thought we would get the date in the diary.

Quick introductions and let's get started

importing data into scratch orgs using Salesforce DX
You may have heard the term scratch org used before. You may even know what they are. Don’t worry if you don’t. Sean will introduce you to scratch orgs, explain why they’re really useful and talk about a way to overcome one of the biggest drawbacks – no data. On the way we’ll cover some ideas around best practices when adding triggers and validation rules and maybe learn a little bit about data structures too
