Key business problem

We wanted our participants to fill out a program application, and we wanted to collect and update their information in Salesforce. We also wanted to limit the application to only those who had previously attended an information session and had gotten a specific code.

Background

New Leaders is a professional development and leadership training nonprofit organization for school administrators, principals, and teachers. We combine virtual on-demand learning with in-person training sessions (when it is safe).

How I solved it

I created an application that fits seamlessly into our Salesforce Community and restricts those who can apply to only people who have a special code using Flow.

1. Outline what information you need to collect

In the external survey tool that we had been using, the application had been revised and changed for specific cohorts, so we had multiple variations of the same questions.

2. Outline the flow of the flow

Now that I knew what was going to be shown to the participants, it was time to think about what was going on behind the scenes. Here’s my step-by-step:

4. Start building the flow

This is my minimum viable product stage; I find what is simple or easy and do that. I focus on not getting bogged down in details like complex validation rules or custom automation. This is about getting elements on the screen to test.

5. Test, fix, test, fix, and test again

Since the intended use of this flow was in a Community, I created multiple testing scenarios to account for the special type of Community users that Salesforce has.
