Difference Between Custom Settings, Custom Object & Custom Metadata Types in Salesforce

Difference Between Custom Settings, Custom Object & Custom Metadata Types in Salesforce

Custom Settings:

Custom settings are similar to custom objects. Application developers can create custom sets of data and associate custom data for an organization, profile, or specific user. All custom settings data is exposed in the application cache, which enables efficient access without the cost of repeated queries to the database. Formula fields, validation rules, flows, Apex, and the SOAP API can then use this data.

Custom Object:

Custom Metadata Types:

Execution Mode for Process Builder and Flow

Process Builder and Flow Execution Mode

Process Builder runs in the system mode so the object and field level permissions both will be ignored for the user who triggers the Process.
However, if a Process is launching a Flow (which runs in system mode), the whole automation will run in the system mode.

Process Builder like Workflows runs in the System Mode hence not restricted by Field Level Security or object level permissions
Flows run in User Mode, Flows when Launched using a Process builder will run in the System mode.

How to split string values using Salesforce Apex Class

How to split string values using Salesforce Apex Class

Split the string values in comma or space or semicolon then use split the below syndax:

List<String> values = splitStringVal.split(',');

List<String> values = splitStringVal.split(';');

List<String> values = splitStringVal.split(' ');

For Example:

String splitStringVal = 'aaa;bbb;ccc;dddd';
List<String> values = splitStringVal.split(';');
for(String value:values){
System.debug(value +'\n');

List<String> result = strValue.split('-', 2);
System.debug(result);

USER_DEBUG [3]|DEBUG|(this, is-learn-for-sfdc)
