Salesforce Heroku Masterclass

Explore how Heroku deploys code across languages, resolving dependencies with build packs and config variables, managing releases, dynos, add-ons, and code via GitHub, Heroku Git, or Docker.

Create and manage your first Heroku app, exploring dynos, add-ons, pipelines, and deployment methods. Learn about collaboration, metrics, logs, domains, config variables, maintenance mode, and app deletion.

Explore how Heroku permissions control who can view, deploy, or manage apps, including owner, collaborators, and enterprise team roles (admin, member, viewer) across free and team scopes.

Explain the four dyno types: free, hobby, standard, and performance, and how they affect pricing, uptime, and resources. Outline add-ons, teams, and CI costs, plus premium support options.

Explore the Heroku addon marketplace, learn how add-ons provide features out of the box, and start development with these tools.

Learn to set up Postgres on Heroku, understand its relational data model, and deploy a Node and Express app that records visits in a Postgres table.

Explore how Heroku pipelines enable multiple apps from a single codebase, with production and staging environments, automatic testing, and review apps linked to GitHub pull requests.

Learn to manage Heroku pipelines with Git across development, staging, production, and review apps, using branches (develop, master, staging), merges, app.json configurations, and scalable two- to four-layer architectures.

Learn how pipelines and Heroku CI automate testing, creating disposable test environments for each git commit and deploying only when all tests pass.

Explore multiple integration options to connect Salesforce and Heroku, including Heroku Connect, outbound messages, and REST API, enabling seamless data synchronization between independent databases.

Explore how Salesforce uses objects like account, case, and lead to store data, and learn why a developer sandbox is ideal for this course before integrating with Heroku.

Learn how Heroku Connect syncs Salesforce objects and records with a Heroku Postgres database in both directions, including free and paid plans, data limits, and attachments not supported in sync.

Learn to set up and use Heroku Connect to sync account data between Salesforce and Postgres, configure bidirectional writes, and verify changes via pgadmin.

Practice hands-on integration with Heroku Connect by mapping a contact object, syncing first name, last name, and email to Salesforce, and validating bidirectional updates via pgadmin.

Learn how outbound messages connect Salesforce to a Heroku app by firing on updates with filters, using XML payloads, and acknowledging or not acknowledging responses in a one-way data flow.

Configure and deploy outbound messages from Salesforce to a Heroku app, processing XML to JSON, and validate data flow by triggering case changes, monitoring acknowledgments and retries.

Deploy the outbound processing code, configure a Salesforce workflow rule for outbound messages to the endpoint, and validate a new case command with the console log from a case comment.

Explore Salesforce native REST API integration with Heroku to manage data. Learn endpoints, object paths, and limits like 3 MB per request and 2000 rows per call.

deploy a nodejs express server on heroku to create salesforce accounts via rest api using jsforce, with postman tests and account id validation.
