What Is the Console Developer Guide?

The Lightning Console JavaScript API and the Salesforce Console Integration Toolkit both interact with Salesforce console apps. This guide provides reference material for both.

Starting with API version 42.0 of the Salesforce Console Integration Toolkit, many of the methods used in existing Visualforce pages and third-party web tabs now work in Lightning Experience. Just point to the latest version of the toolkit script in your Visualforce pages or third-party web tabs. Third-party content must be whitelisted in the CSP Trusted Sites list to be used in Lightning Experience. See Salesforce Console Integration Toolkit Methods Supported in Lightning Console JavaScript API for a list of supported methods.

To use this guide, it helps if you have a basic familiarity with:
  • JavaScript
  • Visualforce
  • Web services
  • Software development
  • Salesforce console
  • Lightning
  • Lightning console apps
