Salesforce Fact #123 | Total count in flow

Suppose, we are using get records in flow to fetch account and contact records based on some condition. Once the records are fetched, we need to calculate the sum of the record count.

We can do that in a single assignment element using a third temp variable. It also proves that assignment operations are processed sequentially.

Attached are the screenshots.

Whenever we are setting any picklist field value to blank, it will get stored in database as NULL. So we need to be careful while processing this data after fetching from database.

This allows the users to delete accessible files irrespective of the ownership. The app permission can be checked in LWC as well similar to other app permissions. Attached is the screenshot. Reference:  https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=release-notes.rn_experiences_files_delete_files.htm&release=260&type=5 However, there seems to be one issue; With this permission, a user can delete a file with only view access to the file. Hope Salesforce will put further restriction to fix this in upcoming releases.
