It's connection time!

The event monitoring section was easy - so you are on your own with those modules!  I decided to try to finish the Advance Admin trail in one night!  I thought it might be an all-nighter, but it turned out to be a lot easier than planned.  The only part that took extra thought was the Salesforce Connect modules.  A helpful note- Only 1 external data source is allowed for a Playground.  So, you can't follow along with the instructions in the module AND complete the challenge in the same org.

Tips:

  • The challenge to Set up Salesforce connect requested an API name of “Phone_Plans_x” and “Phone_x.”  I used these exact API names and Trailhead kicked off an error when doing the challenge check.  Trailhead is looking for “Phone_Plans” and “Phone.”
  • The challenge to Integrate External Data- In order to add “0000123442” to the “Phone_UUID” field, make sure that the section where the field was added is visible.  I had to adjust the page layout in order to be able to view the field. 
Since I was able to get extra sleep, I decided to do some morning gardening instead of taking a nap!
