CT Mobile Managed Package Update to v. 3.54
In compliance with Salesforce security policy and since the CT Mobile package v. 3.54:
-
The administrator credentials are no more in use to retrieve metadata during the synchronization.
-
User access to the cloud token is restricted.
-
Now, the cloud token is written to the protected API Key custom setting and retrieved by the web service.
-
As before, administrators could view and refresh the cloud token value on the CT Mobile Control Panel: Tools.
-
Consider the following while working with the CT Mobile package v. 3.54 and higher:
-
The administrator credentials are no more available on the CT Mobile Control Panel: Tools tab and are no more in use to download metadata on the user’s device.
-
The metadata archive should be built. This allows all the necessary metadata to be downloaded to the user’s device for the CT Mobile app to work properly offline.
Enable Metadata Checker or click the Refresh metadata archive button to build the metadata archive. Please note that the process will take some time. -
The cloud token is required to download the metadata archive during the synchronization on the user’s device.
-
If the cloud token is invalid or there is no metadata archive, the CT Mobile app downloads metadata using the user’s credentials. Validation rules, dashboards, and some operations in formulas will not be available offline.
Please get familiar with the comparison table of functionalities available for users according to their devices platforms and versions of the CT Mobile package and app.
