#MWD16

#MWD16

Assume we have these accounts with external ids populated…

#MWD16

Open the Developer Console

#MWD16

Open Execute Anonymous Window

#MWD16

Insert a contact but rather than specify account’s id instead reference the account’s external id. Note use of the relationship field name, “account”, instead of the id field name, “accountId”.

#MWD16

Contact created and linked to account,all without knowing Salesforce record IDs!
