ORGanizer Becomes Community, New Names, Higher Prices, Agentforce Jobs Boom While Projects Stall in Pilot
From the curator, Grzegorz Skaruz: This week's roundup feels like a mix of "brace yourself" and "let's figure this out together." Salesforce dropped a naming and pricing shake-up that's got everyone talking - Enterprise Edition becoming "Core Edition" is just the start, and the cost changes are the real story. Meanwhile, Agentforce is reshaping the job market in a strange way: demand for the skill is soaring even though plenty of companies are still stuck in pilot mode, not quite sure what to do with it.I also found a piece asking what Salesforce Admins will actually be doing in 2027, and honestly, it's less about AI replacing anyone and more about the job shifting toward oversight, trust, and bigger-picture thinking. And if you're still logging in with a username, there's a change coming to your default login method that's worth understanding before it catches you off guard. Read the whole note

Salesforce storage limit exceeded, best clean up strategy?
Org is over the limit on both data storage (67GB/65.4GB) and file storage (824GB/789GB). Biggest culprits: email messages, accounts, contacts, cases on the data side, and content bodies/attachments on the file side. Looking for advice on cleaning up without breaking anything - best way to archive files, find and remove large or unused ones, good tools to spot the biggest storage hogs, and how to keep case-related email attachments linked even after moving them out of Salesforce.

Local Apex Execution!?
Found a tool that apparently lets you run Apex locally - repo and website linked (aer-dist by octoberswimmer). No affiliation, but it looks like a potential game changer for Salesforce dev if it really works. Could boost both org-based and package-based development, AI workflows, CI/CD, and overall developer happiness. Asking if anyone spots issues with it, and what other benefits local Apex execution could unlock.

About those "Update Unsupported Platform SOAP API login" emails
Heads up on those "ACTION REQUIRED: Update Unsupported Platform SOAP API login()" emails - don't ignore them like the poster almost did. Only real SOAP API login in their org is Microsoft Entra doing user provisioning, which can't be fixed on their end (linked a Microsoft doc about it). So they started dismissing the emails... until today, when scrolling through one, they spotted new wording: Winter '27 will require the "Use Any API Auth" permission for all SOAP API login() users, otherwise it'll fail with an INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS error. Turns out this warning was added in September's email but missing from August's - easy to miss if you're skimming. Moral: check these emails closely, there's a real permission change coming.
