Closed edrushka closed 9 years ago

edrushka commented 9 years ago

The Foundation Opportunity dashboard in Salesforce needs a bit of attention.

Driver: @edrushka Decision-maker: @benrito Consulted: Lynn Informed: @OpenMatt

@benrito please outline what you would like done

This doesn't feel like a dev-needing issue. Who did the first version?

edrushka commented 9 years ago

I do not know. Perhaps it was @secretrobotron?

benrito commented 9 years ago

Currently in a meeting but will comment on this shortly

benrito commented 9 years ago

We have designed a semi-public dashboard that will be generated based off the Salesforce database.

Building this will require some front-end engineering on top of Salesforce APIs.

Intuitively it shouldn't be too hard, but it will require someone to dive into VisualForce for a day or two: https://developer.salesforce.com/page/An_Introduction_to_Visualforce pipelinemockup

This is what we're able to generate without doing any custom work with VisualForce:

@simonwex is this something Scott or Ali can do? If not, I'll need a dev from another "team" to tackle this.

simonwex commented 9 years ago

No one on the team has any experience here, but this will be in Scott's wheelhouse.

@benrito can you please help get @alicoding set up with a dev account and access to the sandbox instance so he can begin to tackle this? ty

Holding on whether Lynn believes this is still a priority

@benrito Did you connect with Lynn? Still want to do this?

I've created Salesforce accounts for @ScottDowne and @alicoding now.

I did some proof of concept work on something very similar last year when we started migrating the engagement pipeline data from Google Docs to Salesforce for the Gauntlet Dashboard.

@simonwex @ScottDowne @alicoding you'll probably be happy to see JSForce which allows you to work in node/js land for some of this. My POC looked up an existing report in salesforce and extracted the data. This might remove the need to learn VisualForce.

Killing this. No longer needed.
