Unlock Salesforce: Custom Objects & AI Assistants #shorts

Claude gave step-by-step instructions for building a custom Salesforce object while Cowork watched the screen and corrected mistakes when the UI didn't match. They found a way to change the integration token refresh from daily to yearly, which fixed the constant Salesforce breakdowns.
I was like, okay, there's gotta be a way where the token doesn't expire every 24 hours. And it was just building a custom object app because in a custom object app, which I asked Claude how to do, super easy, like Claude gave me really good instructions and then I loaded up Cowork so it could watch me do it, right? I was like, just watch what I'm doing, tell me if I go wrong.
Cowork was watching you manually build the Salesforce custom object? Yes.
Yeah. It was watching your screen? Cowork in the browser. Yeah, yeah. It was watching your screen. That's pretty cool.
Did it catch errors while you were doing it?
I didn't too. Well, it was pretty easy. So, well, he gave me really good instructions, so nothing bad happened.
So Claude gave you the instructions to build the custom model, then Claude Cowork watched you while you did it. I can't, again, you're ahead of me.
She was like, you're doing great.
I wouldn't have thought to have Cowork watch my work while I'm doing it, but that's pretty cool.
Yeah. You know what's funny? I haven't had Cowork watch Replit or anything. I should do that. I'll do that next time before the, or next episode. So yeah, I was, so I deployed this custom app object agent and, and Claude and coworker walking me through, okay, here's how you can set it so that you don't have to. Because I did get— I got stuck a couple of times. I was like, you know, Claude, what you told me to do is not exactly where you told me. Like, it's using just kind of like, you know, older UI data. So I'd be like, is this the right button? Is this the right box to check? Is this the right field I want? And it was like, yes, yes, yes, that's, that's fine. That's the one you want. And I was like, shouldn't I do this one? It was like, yes, you're right, do that one. This is why I'm watching you. And so I did it and it And then I found in building the custom object a way that we could have our token refresh every year versus every day. And now our Salesforce integration has not broken since I did the custom object.
Cool. Well, it shows. So the good news is it worked and it's epic.
