Salesforce Get Integration Example #1

In this example we will load the account names into a dropdown, and when the user selects a specific account from this dropdown, the account phone and website URL will be populated from Salesforce.
In addition we will add a hidden field - which can be used to transfer the account id, if needed.

We are now avaliable on appexchange

Following are step by step instructions to populate data from Salesforce:

1-	In order for this example to work you will need to make sure you have sample data in your Salesforce "account" object. Simply enter Salesforce, add a few accounts and make sure they all have phone numbers and website urls.
2-	Open the form builder and create a new blank form.
3-	Drag a Dropdown element.   Change its label text to: "Choose Account Name" (in "Properties panel" > "Element" tab > "Settings" option) Remove all of the dropdown's default items, and turn off the "Add Other" checkbox.
4-	Drag 2 labels and place them one above the other. Change the upper label text to "Account Phone"  (in "Properties panel" > "Element" tab > "Settings" option >text) - we will use this as a simple regular label Change the Lower label text to "Phone #"  (in "Properties panel" > "Element" tab > "Settings" option >text) - we will populate the account phone number into this label. * It is recommended to make the lower label wider so the populated text will not break. To change its width simply select the label and pull its right handles to the right. You can also change width in the elements style settings (in "Properties panel" > "Element" tab > "Style" option >"Size & Position" category > width )
5-	Drag 2  more labels and place them one above the other.  Change the upper label text to "website  URL"  (in "Properties panel" > "Element" tab > "Settings" option >Text) - we will use this as a simple regular label Change the Lower label text to "website #"  (in "Properties panel" > "Element" tab > "Settings" option >text) - we will populate the account website number into this label. * It is recommended to make the lower label wider so the populated text will not break. To change its width simply select the label and pull its right handles to the right. You can also change width in the elements style settings (in "Properties panel" > "Element" tab > "Style" option >"Size & Position" category > width)
6-	Drag a "hidden" element and change its name to "account_id" (in "Properties panel" > "Element" tab > "Settings" option >Name)  The hidden element is not displayed in the form, it is only used to store data - in this case it is added to the form to store the account id in it, in case you want to transfer this id.
7-	Drag a submit button
8-	Give the form a name  (in "Properties panel" > "Form" tab > "Settings" option > "General" category > Form Name)
9-	Save the form (In the Upper toolbar)
10-	Now that the form is created you will need to set up the "Get" integration: Go to  "Properties panel" > "Form" tab > "Settings" option > "Salesforce Integration" category > Get From Salesforce  Press on "Map fields" button - this will open the "Get" window, where you will need to configure the "Get" integration.

Under "Salesforce Object Settings" category: - Start by selecting  the object from the dropdown - in this case, the "Account" object. - Turn on the "Execute on form load" checkbox - this will make sure that the account names are populated in the dropdown when the form is loading. More categories will now appear - Open the "Condition" category: - In the "If multiple matches found take ID from" radio button choose the last option: "All". - In the Limit textbox enter a number of accounts.
