10 Claude Use Cases for Admins, Red Team Agent: Native Pen Testing Coming

From the curator, Grzegorz Skaruz: It's already Tuesday evening here in Poland, but I made it in time. Another week, another pile of Salesforce news to sort through. Read the whole note

It's already Tuesday evening here in Poland, but I made it in time. Another week, another pile of Salesforce news to sort through. This edition leans heavy on AI, no surprise there. Claude keeps popping up everywhere, including some genuinely useful ways admins can start using it daily (with the usual caveat: don't blindly trust what it spits out). Then there's the native Red Team Agent Salesforce announced at Dreamforce, which could finally make penetration testing less of a luxury for orgs that never had the budget for it. Winter '27 is live too, and it's not one flashy headline feature this time but a bunch of smaller wins across data, security, and Flow Builder worth sharing with your team. And if you're using MCP or building AI agents, you'll want to know Salesforce is about to start charging for that access through Flex Credits. Worth understanding before November. Dig in below.

    Data 360: Query Syntax

    Quick cheat sheet for writing Data 360 queries: object or field names can use quotes or none; text matches need single quotes and are case-sensitive; boolean fields are filtered with IS TRUE or IS NOT TRUE; text fields check for empty or non-empty with '' or ''; and date/time filters use TIMESTAMP ranges, like pulling leads contacted in May 2026 by joining lead and email activity tables on matching IDs.

    Build Once, Deploy Everywhere with HXL - Headless Experience Layer in Salesforce

    Build your card once as JSON, then reuse it everywhere. With HXL (Headless Experience Layer), you create a widget - photos, prices, a Book button - and it works across different AI apps without changes. Each app gets its own adapter (Lightning type) that plugs its data into the same widget. Agentforce and Claude get the same info, just packaged differently: Agentforce gets it straight, Claude gets it wrapped via MCP. One widget, multiple adapters, zero rebuilding.
