Custom Setting & Custom Metadata Cheatsheet

 Recently I took an interview for a Salesforce Developer and I asked the below question.

    Q: What is the difference between custom setting and custom metadata?

Most of them mentioned it a deployable apart from that no other answer so, I decided to list out the difference here.

I hope this will be helpful. Please let me know your thoughts.

Logout Link on Lightning Community

Currently I am working on the community implementation and I come accross the scenario where I need to place a logout link on the community page. On google most of them mention to redirect logout.jsp page. When I use this logout.jsp page it is just redirecting to the logout page without clearing the session. Then I started going through the salesforce documentation and came across the below Lightning Web Component(LWC) for the logout link.

LogoutPage.js 

import { LightningElement } from 'lwc'; import { NavigationMixin } from 'lightning/navigation'; export default class Ct_CommunityLogout extends NavigationMixin(LightningElement) { handlelogout(){ this[NavigationMixin.Navigate]({ type: 'comm__loginPage', attributes: { actionName: 'logout' }, }); } }

This code will clear the session and redirect to the community login screen. To make this code work 100% in your community then you have to follow the below steps. 

 1. Your community should not be a public facing. 

 2. On the community setting Login and Logout pages should be set as default pages. 

I hope this will help. Please let me know your thoughts.
