Important

  • The Composer package has been pushed to all production environments as of October 9th, 2023. This package is fully compatible with the Salesforce Winter '24 release and no action is required for customers.
  • We have identified the Salesforce Winter '24 update will impact composer customers that are depending on the $Api.Session_ID variable to generate documents through Salesforce Flow. It is our recommendation that customers update their Composer Flow solutions from sessionID buttons to Oauth buttons to not be impacted.
  • Moving forward from October, all updates to Composer's Salesforce package are installed automatically in all accounts at the time of release. 
  • Starting October 18th, Composer will be compatible with the Salesforce API Version 58.0. For more details, refer to Support of Salesforce API Version with Composer.
  • If you are merging images with Composer or utilizing SF1 solutions, you will need to refresh your token in the Composer Setup Menu. For more details, refer to Configuring the Connected App for SF1.

For more information on installing Composer managed packages, refer to Installing Composer Package. For more information on upgrading Composer managed packages, refer to Upgrading to the Latest Version of Composer.
