    Why does my application authenticate users correctly but still expose sensitive data?

    Jonny Bones
    Jonny Bones Begginer

    This usually means authentication is working, but authorization checks are either missing or inconsistently applied. Logging a user in confirms who they are, but it doesn’t automatically restrict what they can access once inside the system. In many applications, authorization logic exists at the UIRead more

    This usually means authentication is working, but authorization checks are either missing or inconsistently applied. Logging a user in confirms who they are, but it doesn’t automatically restrict what they can access once inside the system.
    In many applications, authorization logic exists at the UI or controller layer but is missing in deeper layers such as business logic or database queries. That makes it possible for users to bypass restrictions by calling APIs directly or manipulating parameters.
    A reliable fix involves enforcing authorization at every sensitive operation, ideally close to where data is accessed rather than only at entry points.
    Takeaway: Authentication opens the door, but authorization decides which rooms stay locked.

    Why do Salesforce Flows conflict with Apex logic?

    Arshan Siddiqui Begginer

    Flows and Apex operate independently but execute in the same transaction. When both attempt to modify the same fields, conflicts occur. Lack of clear ownership over logic increases the risk of inconsistent outcomes. Defining clear boundaries between Flow and Apex responsibilities reduces conflicts.TRead more

    Why do Salesforce test failures increase as codebase grows?

    Test failures increase because tests become indirectly coupled to shared logic. A small change in automation can affect many tests that weren’t designed to account for it.

    Test failures increase because tests become indirectly coupled to shared logic. A small change in automation can affect many tests that weren’t designed to account for it.
    Over time, tests also accumulate assumptions that no longer hold true as the system evolves.
    Refactoring tests to be more isolated and behavior-focused reduces brittleness.
    Takeaway: Growing systems require evolving test strategies.

    How do I prevent recursive trigger execution in Salesforce?

    Jonathan Begginer

    Use a static Boolean flag or a trigger handler pattern. Problem Explanation Triggers can fire repeatedly due to record updates caused by automation or Apex logic. Root Cause(s) 1. Update DML inside triggers 2. Workflow, Flow, or Process Builder updates 3. Missing recursion control Step-by-Step SolutRead more

    Use a static Boolean flag or a trigger handler pattern.

    Problem Explanation

    Triggers can fire repeatedly due to record updates caused by automation or Apex logic.

    Root Cause(s)

    1. Update DML inside triggers
    2. Workflow, Flow, or Process Builder updates
    3. Missing recursion control

    Step-by-Step Solution

    1. Create a static variable in a helper class
    2. Exit trigger logic if flag is already set

    Mark Wilson-xl/main:top-9">

    CODE SNIPPET:
    public class TriggerControl {
    public static Boolean isRunning = false;
    }

    Edge Cases & Variations

    1. Multiple triggers require a shared handler
    2. Flows can still cause recursion indirectly

    Common Mistakes to Avoid

    1. Using non-static variables
    2. Relying only on trigger context

    How do I know when to retrain versus fine-tune?

    Nicolas
    Nicolas Begginer

    Retrain when the data distribution changes significantly; fine-tune when behavior needs adjustment. If core patterns shift, fine-tuning may not be enough. If the task remains similar but requirements evolve, fine-tuning is more efficient. Evaluate both paths on a validation set before committing. CoRead more

    Bulkify your trigger and move queries outside loops.

    Problem Explanation

    Salesforce enforces a governor limit of 100 SOQL queries per transaction. Queries inside loops multiply quickly and exceed this limit.

    Root Cause(s)

    1. SOQL inside for loops
    2. Multiple triggers on the same object
    3. Recursive trigger execution

    Step-by-Step Solution

    1. Collect record IDs into a Set<Id>
    2. Run one SOQL query using WHERE Id IN :idSet
    3. Store results in a Map<Id, SObject>
    4. Access data from the map inside loops

    Mark Wilson-xl/main:top-9">

    CODE SNIPPET:
    Map<Id, Account> accMap = new Map<Id, Account>(
    [SELECT Id, Name FROM Account WHERE Id IN :accIds]
    );

    Edge Cases & Variations

    1. Use Trigger.newMap in update triggers
    2. Watch for workflow or Flow-triggered recursion

    Common Mistakes to Avoid

    1. Querying per record
    2. Ignoring recursion guards
    3. Using Limits.getQueries() only for logging
