Salesforce Grid Refresher

Salesforce does not offer the capability to auto-refresh list views (without clicking the Refresh button on the list view or refreshing the browser), so come to vote for this idea exchange, 20,840 points as of 12 Aug 2022.

The workaround is to add this Chrome extension called Salesforce Grid Refresher, it is a simple extension that does the job, which is the refresh all list views every 1 minute, and yes, you can't adjust it :(

Note: since version 1.5, you can adjust the refresh interval from 5 seconds to 15 minutes. Great job to the developer and thanks for listening.

This tool is particularly useful when you need to monitor a list view, such as new cases created or assigned.

This extension is working in the standard Lightning app and console app too.

Maven Tools for Salesforce

Another complete tool for Salesforce admin/developers. This extension is huge, if you are a Salesforce Inspector user, you will like this tool too. 

the Quick Access menu

Some of the features:

1. Search users from the Quick Access menu, including inactive users (Salesforce Inspector does not support searching inactive users)
2. Continue from (1) - Login As, open user detail, open role, open profile, reset Password, deactivate user, new user, add multiple users.
3. The Quick Access menu will detect and show information based on the current page. On a record page, it will show the system info, from Id, Name, Created By, etc. On other pages, will default to search.
4. Continue from (3) - Create New, Clone, Edit Object (does not go to the field tab as Salesforce DevTools, Edit Page Layout (does not tell which page layout is used for the current record)
5. Query all fields from active record open into Query Editor
6. Query Editor, support multi-tabs, auto complete (as in Salesforce Inspector), save query and open saved query, export result to CSV file, but not to update/insert record as Salesforce Inspector do.
7. Record Data, show all fields: API Name, Label, Type, Value, etc.
8. Object Details include export object details, fields, child relationships
9. And more...

Tips: if you can't open the dashboard by clicking the icon in the Chrome extension toolbar (after restarting the browser or computer), try this link. The same applies to the Quick Access menu, you may need to restart the browser or computer.

EasyCrud

Assign your CRUD and FLS for Salesforce in Bulk from Single Screen. This extension allows Salesforce Admins/Developers to assign CRUD and FLS Permissions from a single screen. There are also features that provide the ability to export permissions in CSV and also generate a dashboard for the permissions.

This is a must-have Chrome extension, for setup and troubleshooting issues related to Salesforce objects and fields access. Once the extension is added, restart your Chrome or Edge browser.

When opening an object in the object manager, you will notice 2 menus are added at the bottom of the left panel, Object Permissions and Field Permissions. if you do not see the menu, wait for a few seconds.

Object Permissions

Show in a matrix of Profiles and Permission Set versus Permission (Create, Read, Edit, Delete, View All, Modify All). You also can filter the Profiles and Permission Sets by the Permission (Create, Read, Edit, Delete, View All, Modify All, Profiles, Permission Sets, and Permission Sets Groups). 

You can make access changes from here by ticking/unticking the checkbox and then clicking the Save button. Additionally, click Export to get the data in a CSV file.

Field Permissions

Similar to Object Permissions, but for fields in the object. Show in a matrix of Profiles and Permission Set versus Permission (Read, Edit). You also can filter the Profiles and Permission Sets by the Permission (Read, Edit, Profiles, Permission Sets, and Permission Sets Groups). 

Similar to Object Permissions, you can make access changes from here by ticking/unticking the checkbox and then clicking the Save button. Additionally, click Export to get the data in a CSV file.
