Important

  • The Composer Mount Belford 8.234 Package have automatically pushed out to all Sandbox environments on January 25th, 2023, and will be pushed to all Production environments on May 16th, 2023. Failure to upgrade to this version will result in Lightning Component solutions and the Document Automation Wizard becoming unavailable for customers on the Salesforce Spring '23 Release.
  • Moving forward from May, all updates to Composer's Salesforce package will be installed automatically in all accounts at the time of release. With our automatic installation of the latest Conga Composer Salesforce package on May 16th, this will remove the Conga Composer reliance on the Salesforce API versions 21.0-30.0 scheduled for deprecation with the Salesforce Summer '23 release.
