  Learn What’s New in Data Cloud Setup and Administration for Winter ’25 Do More with New Data Types in Data Cloud To enhance flexibility, you can now use the email, URL, phone, percent, and Boolean data types in Data Cloud.

  Make Invocable Actions Easier to Configure with New InvocableVariable Modifiers Simplify the configuration of invocable actions using new modifiers from Salesforce. Both the defaultValue and placeholderText modifiers will appear in Flow Builder for the Action elements that correspond to an invocable method. Here’s how to use them. defaultValue Modifier : Set a default value for an input parameter. When the action is used, the input parameter will have a predefined value unless changed by the user. placeholderText Modifier : Set custom placeholder text for an input parameter. Text can provide examples or additional guidance to help users understand what to enter in the input field. Accessing these modifiers in Flow Builder makes it easier to configure and use the actions within your flows. This change applies to Lightning Experience and Salesforce Classic in Performance, Unlimited, Developer, Enterprise, and Database.com editions.
