Multi-Factor Authentication Enablement
Auto-enablement schedule and enforcement update
* MFA will also be turned on for existing production orgs that weren’t included in one of the auto-enablement phases
that occurred between Spring ‘23 and Spring ‘24.
Customer Need
All Salesforce customers are required to log in to the UI with MFA. To help
customers with this requirement, Salesforce is automatically enabling MFA
for direct logins to Salesforce orgs.
Solution
● Spring ‘24: Final MFA auto-enablement phase for existing customers. Check
Release Updates to see if your org is aﬀected. See this release note.
● April 8, 2024*: MFA will be turned on by default for all new production orgs
created on or after this date. See this release note.
● Summer ‘24: See this release note for changes to the plan to enforce MFA for
Salesforce orgs.
When Salesforce enables MFA for an org, users have a 30-day grace period to
skip logging in with it. If more time is needed, Admins can temporarily
disable MFA. See this article for more guidance.

Cross-Object Fields
Display fields from related records
Customer Need
Instead of creating formula fields to display data
from related objects inline, Admins would like the
ability to seamlessly display fields from related records
alongside fields from the primary record.
Solution / How To Configure
From within Lightning App Builder, cross-object fields
can be accessed from the field palette by clicking on
the little right arrows shown on lookup fields.
Use Case
An Admin would like to display the Account
phone number alongside the Opportunity fields
on the Opportunity record page.
Impact
Proliferation of formula fields to support this
type of inline field value display is avoided.

Customer Need
Ability to transfer ownership of dashboard
when someone leaves the company
To transfer ownership of a dashboard to another user when
responsibilities change, go to the Dashboards tab or go to the
Analytics tab and select Browse and then Dashboards. Find the
dashboard in the list and select the Change Owner row-level
action.
Use Case
When someone leaves your organization, you can reassign
ownership of all their dashboards with one action. On the
Analytics tab, select Browse and then Dashboards. Select the
dashboards you want to reassign (1) and use the Change
Owner option under Manage Items (2). You can change
ownership of up to 50 dashboards at a time.

Customer Need
Ability to update fields in filters directly

as Probability, without rebuilding the filter logic.
Use Case
Save time when updating filter logic in response to
emerging questions or conditions. Directly change the
field in a Lightning report filter without having to delete
the filter and add a new one. In earlier releases, you
could change the operator & value but not the field.

diﬀering criteria to aﬃliate with an account
Impact

Repeaters (Beta)
Enable users to create lists of data at runtime
Customer Need
When admins need to collect multiple sets of data, they often don’t know how
many the end user will need to add. The only way to accomplish this was to
manually reroute the user back to the same screen over and over again or to
build a bespoke component (full code).
1. Add a Repeater component to your screen.
2. Drag other components into the repeater and configure them.
3. Add a Loop to your flow to map the resulting collection data into the
right data structure, such as a CRM object or Apex-define type for
external services.
4. Use Create Records or an external callout to commit the data you
collected in the Repeater component.
Use Cases
● Add work & education history to job application
● Add vehicles & drivers to insurance policy
Impact
Users will now be able to add multiple items to a list from a single screen instead
of going back to the same screen over and over again

Input Validation for More Components

custom and standard components
Customer Need
There is no easy way to validate the input coming from custom
components and our standard Lightning components like Name,
Address, Data Table, and Email.
In supported components, provide an error message and a formula
that must evaluate to true for the screen to proceed in the Validate
Input section of a component conﬁguration.
Use Case
● Ensure users create contacts that match their account’s state or
country
● Ensure an opportunity that is selected from a data table is in the
right Stage before proceeding
Impact

custom and standard components
Example: Enforce a user to always select the
account’s country when creating a new contact.

Transform (Beta)

when selecting flow resources.
In Spring 24, friendly resource picker has been extended for
more use cases. In addition to Create Records, it’s now
auto-enabled for Update Records, Delete Records,
and Get Records elements when selecting flow resources within
the records and record collections fields.
Use Case
Find resources more easily with friendlier label names, tooltips
with helpful info, resources grouped under the element it was
created in, breadcrumbs to maintain context of the data
structure of the resource, and intuitive icons.
Impact
Reduced time to find the right resource
Helps reduce errors caused by selecting incorrect resource

Save a Dra
Save your work as you go
Customer Need
Users want the ability to save their flow without
having to fully configure it so that they can continue
building it later and not lose their work.
In Spring ‘24, Save a Draft is automatically supported for all
elements except Screens and Actions. For supported
elements, you can save your flow without having to finish
configuring or resolving errors. When you save, warnings
display with what to fix before you can activate your flow.
Use Case
Save your work, even if you don't have
all of your flow's details figured out.
Impact
Helps prevent lost changes
Enables iterative building of a flow

Customer Need
Users want the ability to navigate their flow without
having to complete the configuration of an element.

Migrate to Flow: Partial Migration
Migrate uncommon Process
Builder use cases to Flow
Customer Need
Previously the Migrate to Flow tool could either fully migrate a Process
Builder criteria or not, depending on what it contained. The tool only
fully supported migration of the most commonly configured actions.
Check the Migratable column of the Migrate to Flow tool on processes -
it will now say ‘Partially’ for certain criteria. After migration, the tool will
let the user know which parts of the migrated flow will need additional
configuration.
Use Case
Migrate less common actions from Process Builder using the migration
tool, and then further configure them in Flow to finalize the migration.
This can be especially helpful if you want to use the Migration tool
capabilities to migrate pending scheduled actions to scheduled paths,
but they previously contained an unsupported action such as Post to
Chatter.
Impact
Migrate to Flow from Process Builder

Identify Flows Using Email Alerts
Track which flows are reusing a specific email
Customer Need
Customers have the ability to reuse emails they’ve configured
in different automation scenarios, but it is limiting if they
don’t understand where that email is being used.
Find in Setup under Process Automation / Workflow Actions /
Email Alerts. Select a specific email alert and there is a new
list called “Flows Using This Email Alert.” This will work on
existing orgs, no additional configuration needed
Use Case
Discover what automation might be impacted when
editing or updating a reusable Email Alert.
Impact
Migration from Workflow Rules to Flow (parity item)
