Realfire Release notes - v4.1

Field Analysis (Enterprise)

Now you can easily analyze your data and capture whole bunch of stats about which fields are used, which picklist/record types used, using Field Analysis. It supports creating multiple analysis profiles with ability to specify records/fields you want to analyze. Each analysis profile can be run multiple times so you can kind of understand the history of field usage over period.

It also analyzes Picklist values and Record type values if you include those fields. It uses Salesforce Batch API so by selecting only the fields you want to analyze, you can speed up the process. It also combines field information from metadata api so you get complete picture of how field is used.

To access, Open an Object -> Goto Field Analysis tab.

Object Security Management (Enterprise)

With this feature you can visuzalize objects permissions assignment across profiles/permission sets and manage them. By plotting all objects in rows and profiles/permission sets in column, you will get unprecedented view of how object permissions are assigned to which profiles.

To update, you can select individual combination of object-profile/permission set cell to update or whole row(s) and/or column(s). If you have a set of favorite profiles/permission sets that you touch often, you can create a Profile/Permission Set group so you can manage only those.

To access, Open a Connection -> Goto Object Security tab.

Support for Tooling Objects (Essential+)

Tooling API provides soql based access to various metadata objects, which are not available in Partner API.

This version of Realfire adds support for listing all Tooling Objects and querying them. The interface is same as querying other objects.

Search Object Globally (Essential+)

Now you can search for an object and its data globally similar to Salesforce Global search but limited to object you are searching under. Once you searched, you can filter for fields.

Objects/Fields Metadata Enrichment (Essential+)

If you have access to Metadata API (i.e. have Modify All Data permission), objects and fields are enriched with Metadata information like audit fields, description so you can view complete info about objects/fields in one place.

Show Apex/Query Editor (Essential+)

We have had “New Query Editor/New Apex Editor” which always opened new editor. This can soon get out of hand as it keeps opening new window. While all the previous contents are not lost, but it is inconvenient that you need goto Recent files to access them.

This version adds two actions “Show Query Editor/Show Apex Editor”, which opens last editor or new if non exists. This way, you can always access what you saved earlier easily and manage all your queries in one editor. You can still use “New Query Editor/New Apex Editor” actions if you really want to open new editors.

Field Info Dialog with Values Previw (Essential+)

As you browse through fields, if you want to take a quick peek at what are sample values for a field, you can do so using Field Info dialog. Just double click on field or pick View from content menu to get field info dialog, which provides various access to other field specific information including searchable properties, analysis stats.

Object Filters

If you are one of the big Salesforce org customer, you may have upto thousands of objects. With Realfire giving access to all objects, it can easily be overwhelming. This version brings feature rich Object Filters, which allows you to configure what objects to be shown.

It allows you to select Object Types to be shown, include objects by free form search or exclude objects matching free form search. Exclude objects can be used to exclude any packaged objects by just specifying package prefix.

Support for Time and Encrypted Fields

You can query and edit Encrypted/Time fields.

Rest Explorer Enhancements

Rest Explorer has been enhanced with following features.

Cleanup Editor Files

If you have multiple editor files, you can cleanup all of them and combine into one using Cleanup Editor files.

To access goto Help -> Cleanup Editor Files

Editors Connection Auto Selection

When you inject script from Execution Histor/Saved Script/Or using qurey builder, it used to insert the script into editor. With this enhancement, when you do that connection in that editor is updated to appropriate connection.

OAuth Connection Duration

We have enhanced such that when you login using OAuth, Realfire makes uses of offline capability to auto-login without prompting for oauth init again and again. With this, you would be able to auto login to oauth connections without re-negotiating upto weeks or more.

Add Valid For and Order fields to Picklist Values grid

Added two additional attributes Valid For and Order to picklist values. These can be used to sort back to default picklist values order.

Add Missing Object/Field Properties

New additional properties have been added to Object and Field Properties datagrid for ex., like Permissionable.

Insert Script dedupring

When you insert new script into Query or Apex editor, existing text is deduped. If it exists, existing text is selected instead of inserting again hence reducing the noise.

Execution History Deduping

Execution history is deduped to reduce noise with count for previous executions. You can view the prior executions using View Execution Dates menu.
