Patch Levels

Important: Salesforce Username/Password Login Deprecated

Salesforce API version 65 deprecates the SOAP username/password login endpoint. Customers should migrate to an external client application configured with OAuth. Medic jobs using a login type that does not support API 65 will automatically fall back to API 64, and an exception will be logged at the start of each job as a reminder to migrate.

This exception can not be eliminated until OAuth authentication is used.

Salesforce API Version Fallback for Username/Password Logins

The "Fallback API Detected" error does not stop your jobs from running - it is informational, and indicates that CopyStorm/Medic is not able to use the most recent Salesforce API features. The error will be resolved when updating to JWT (or other OAuth) authentication.

Please reference Salesforce OAuth Login Types.

New Features

Headless Support for Delete Records Tool

The Delete Records tool now supports headless execution, enabling automated and scripted delete workflows without a user interface.

Patch Levels

Salesforce API Update

This release updates CopyStorm/Medic to use Salesforce API version 62.

Release Highlights

This release focuses on customer requested features and bug fixes. Notable items include:

• API Threshold Option: CopyStorm/Medic will not use more than the specified percentage of API calls in a day.

• Partitioning Creation – Now incremental: This update simplifies the process to create partitions with pre-existing data, especially with large data sets.

Release Details

API Threshold Feature

This release introduces a new feature that provides additional control over Salesforce API call consumption. The API Threshold setting allows you to set a percentage value that will prevent a CopyStorm/Medic job from starting if Salesforce Organization’s API utilization is above the provided percentage. For example, if the API Threshold is set to 80, CopyStorm/Medic will not run if the current Salesforce API use is >80% of the total allowed API calls.

Incremental Partition Creation

The Partition Editor feature allows customers to shift the storage of field data out of the CopyStorm database and into an alternative storage location. The primary benefit is cost savings with a secondary advantage of controlling the size of the CopyStorm database. The addition of state tracking empowers customers with large data sets to implement partitions when a network connection to the database or the connection to Salesforce can not be expected to remain stable during the entire partition creation process. Reference this article for details.
