Allowing Guest Users to Create Accounts

Based on the security setting of Salesforce, CC360 does not support guest users to create records when you configure synchronization settings for the Account object. For guest users to create records, deactivate the current trigger of the Account object and create a custom trigger.

Based on the Salesforce environment that you use, perform one of the following tasks:

In Salesforce Classic, in the upper-right corner of the page, select your name, and click

Developer Console

In Lightning Experience, click the quick access menu ( The image shows the quick access menu.

), and then click

Developer Console

To deactivate the CC360 trigger of the Account object, perform the following tasks:

Click

Debug

Open Execute Anonymous Window

The

Enter Apex Code

dialog box appears.

Enter the following code:

API_SettingsManager.updateInternalSetting('DisableAccountTrigger',1);

Click

Execute

To create a custom trigger for the Account object, perform the following task:

Click

File

New

Apex Trigger

The

New Apex Trigger

dialog box appears.

Enter a name for the trigger.

Select

Account

Click

Submit

In the trigger editor, enter the Apex code in the following format:

trigger Custom_Account_Trigger on Account (after delete, after insert, after update,
before delete, before insert, before update)
{
	DSE.API_AccountTriggerHandler apiHandler = new DSE.API_AccountTriggerHandler ();


	try
	{
		apiHandler.initTrigger();
	}
	catch (DSE.API_AccountTriggerHandler.DS_CloudMDMSkipTriggerException es)
	{
		return;
	}
	catch (Exception e)
	{
		throw new DSE.API_AccountTriggerHandler.DS_CloudMDMTriggerAPIException ('Cloud MDM Trigger API Initialization Failed' + e.getMessage());
	}

	try
	{
		if (Trigger.isInsert && System.UserInfo.getUserType() != 'Guest')
		{
			if (Trigger.isBefore)
			{
				apiHandler.Trigger_InsertBefore_Handler();
			}
			else
			{
				apiHandler.Trigger_InsertAfter_Handler();
			}

			return;
		}

		if (Trigger.isUpdate)
		{
			if (Trigger.isBefore)
			{
				apiHandler.Trigger_UpdateBefore_Handler();
			}
			else
			{
				apiHandler.Trigger_UpdateAfter_Handler();
			}

			return;
		}

		if (Trigger.isDelete)
		{
			if (Trigger.isBefore)
			{
				apiHandler.Trigger_DeleteBefore_Handler();
			}
			else
			{
				apiHandler.Trigger_DeleteAfter_Handler();
			}

			return;
		}
	}
	catch (DSE.API_AccountTriggerHandler.DS_CloudMDMPartialTriggerFailureException e)
	{
		if (Trigger.isAfter)
			DSE.API_AccountTriggerHandler.AccountTriggerState = DSE.API_AccountTriggerHandler.TRIGGER_FAILURE_STATUS.TRIGGER_ROLLBACK_INPROGRESS;
		else
			DSE.API_AccountTriggerHandler.AccountTriggerState = DSE.API_AccountTriggerHandler.TRIGGER_FAILURE_STATUS.TRIGGER_FAILED;

		return;
	}
}

This Apex code creates a trigger named

Custom_Account_Trigger

for the Account object.
