How to get formula content of formula field

If I have a formula field whose formula is "= TODAY() - Account.Last_Contact_Date__c", is there a way for me to use apex/soql to access that field such that it returns the formula as a string rather than the date it would otherwise return?

Hi,
  
String selectedObject = Account.sObjectType.getDescribe().getName();

selectedObject = 'MyObject__c';

system.debug(selectedObject);

Map<String, Schema.SObjectType> schemaMap = Schema.getGlobalDescribe();
Schema.SObjectType objectSchema = schemaMap.get(selectedObject);
Map<String, Schema.SObjectField> fieldMap = objectSchema.getDescribe().fields.getMap();
for (String fieldName: fieldMap.keySet()){  
    Schema.DescribeFieldResult df  =  fieldMap.get(fieldName).getDescribe();
    if (df.isCalculated() &&  df.getCalculatedFormula() != null) {
         system.debug('field name:' +  fieldName + ' label:' + df.getLabel() + 
        ' type:' +  df.getType() + ' formula:' + df.getCalculatedFormula().replace('\n',' ').replace('\r',' '));
    }  
}

simple VF page table with text

I am trying to create a simple reference table that our support agents can see on the case record.  I don't need it to contain data from Salesforce only pre-defined text.  I would like it to have 2 columns and 4 rows.  It will be somewhat similar to the image I have inserted.  I'm not a developer so I was wondering if someone could provide a sample of something similar they have to help get me started.  Thanks in advance for your help!User-added image

You can add CSS style to make better look and feel. This is very basic table to start. Hope it will help you to start.

one batch apex to another batch apex

we can not call one asynchronous process to another asynchronous process but how can we call from one batch to another batch since batch is also asynchronous process?

Hi Subodh,

Greetings to you!

There's no rule that says that "asynchronous cannot call asynchronous". There are specific rules in place, such as "future cannot call future". A Queueable can call another Queueable, a Batchable can call another Batchable in the finish method, and Scheduleable methods can call Batchable and Queueable methods. There are usually lesser limits allowed for asynchronous contexts (e.g. a Queueable can call only one Queueable, while a normal synchronous transaction can call 50 of them).

Reference: https://salesforce.stackexchange.com/questions/204896/calling-async-from-async-process

To call another batch class from a batch class: 
1. Call another batch class in the finish method as execute method is called many times but Start and finish method only once.
2. So once your main batch is completed and the finish method is called and then it will call another batch.

Please refer to the below link which might help you further:

https://www.biswajeetsamal.com/blog/invoke-batch-apex-from-another-batch-apex/

I hope it helps you.

Kindly let me know if it helps you and close your query by marking it as solved so that it can help others in the future. It will help to keep this community clean.

Thanks and Regards,
Khan Anas

How to access field in object

I have this json string i am pulling in with the code below:

{"success":1,"statuscode":200,"data":[{"kleur1":"rood","kleur2":"wit","kleur3":"blauw"},{"kleur1":"rood","kleur2":"wit","kleur3":"blauw"},{"kleur1":"rood","kleur2":"wit","kleur3":"blauw"}]}

The code in Developer Console:

Http http = new Http();
HttpRequest request = new HttpRequest();
request.setEndpoint('https://domain.ext/test');
request.setMethod('GET');
HttpResponse response = http.send(request);

if (response.getStatusCode() == 200) {
    
    Map<String, Object> results = (Map<String, Object>) JSON.deserializeUntyped(response.getBody());
    List<Object> rows = (List<Object>) results.get('data'); 
    for (Object row : rows) {
        System.debug('TEST ' + row.kleur1);
    }

}

This code produces an error: Line: 13, Column: 36
Variable does not exist: kleur1. Houw should I access the field 'kleur1' of the object row?

  for this work around you replace for loop code  with below code 

//access json data
    for (Object row : rows) {
        Map<String, Object> rw = (Map<String, Object>) row;
        System.debug('TEST ' +  rw.get('kleur1'));
    }

Hi RarLopz,

You cant use "add" to put values in Map chnage this line.
  
mapAccountBillingAddress.Put(aggregate.id, ((String)aggregate.get('str')+(String)aggregate.get('ct')+(String)aggregate.get('stt')+(String)aggregate.get('pc')));

Thanks

Moving Apex Trigger From Sandbox To Production And Getting Error During Apex Testing

Hi 

I am moving an Apex Trigger from Sandbox to Production and this is the error I am getting in the Apex Test: 

System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: INVALID_CROSS_REFERENCE_KEY, Record Type ID: this ID value isn't valid for the user: 0120v000000TPT9AAO: [RecordTypeId] 
Stack Trace: Class.RequireRejectionCommentTest.generateAndSubmitObject: line 166, column 1 Class.RequireRejectionCommentTest.testApprovalWithoutComment: line 49, column 1

It's telling me as the Salesforce Admin I do not have access to this record but I do I checked and I have access to these record types. 

This is the code right here: 
  
testBatchIS.add(new Case(Hours__c=15.12,RecordTypeId='0120v000000TPT9AAO',AccountId='0017000001XpguKAAR',                               Status='New',Concession_Category__c='Scope Change',                     Explanation_for_Business_Reason_Choice__c='stuff'));

I think it might have to do with the way I reference the Record Type as an ID.

instead of referencing it as RecordTypeID how would I reference it by the RecordTypeName instead?

For this You can Use 
Replace 'DeveloperNameOfRecordType' with Case Recortype Name
Id RecordTypeIdCase= Schema.SObjectType.Case.getRecordTypeInfosByName().get('DeveloperNameOfRecordType').getRecordTypeId();

and use RecordTypeIdCase in replace of '0120v000000TPT9AAO'
