About

Creates a Salesforce Case record with the given parameters and returns the Case Id of the created Case record. The first thing that the handler does is obtain an access token using the inputted info values, which is used to authenticate the rest of the calls that are made. The parameter inputs are then used to build a Case object which is sent to the Salesforce REST API to create a Case with those values.

  1. Go to Setup, which is in the dropdown menu under your name in the upper righthand corner.
