A few weeks ago, I was asked if you could send shortened URLs from Salesforce. Sending them wasn’t the problem – there’s dozens of approaches there. But I didn’t quite have a solution for generating those links. I knew my team could figure it out quickly, but it was after-hours when the question came in and I wanted an answer fast. I turned to Twitter, and within a few minutes, I had several approaches lined up and could definitively say it was possible. The next morning, I awoke to an incredible blog post by Doug Ayers, who took my question as a challenge and stayed up late writing the code. Check it out!
