Stuff that Salesforce should have added already... Adding flow and user tabs into setup.

Why Salesforce is a Chrome extension designed to improve your Salesforce setup experience by adding custom flow and user tabs directly into the setup menu. Instead of repeatedly typing "flow" or "user" into the setup search, this extension makes these options quickly accessible, saving time and reducing frustration.

This tool addresses a common productivity pain point by utilizing unused space in the Salesforce setup tab menu. It enhances the default interface with functionality many users expect but Salesforce has yet to implement, making setup navigation more efficient and intuitive.

User reviews

Users appreciate the extension for saving time and improving Salesforce navigation through customizable tabs and shortcuts. It is praised for its ease of use and flexibility. Key issues include the broken 'User' tab URL, lack of sandbox-specific tabs causing conflicts, and missing features like import/export and item reordering.

Desire for improvements like color coding, better icon/logo, and enhanced user guide.

Está bien la idea de los tabs, pero el tab de usuario no funciona. Otra oportunidad de mejora es tener tabs basados en el sandbox en el que uno está, ya que los tabs se comparten entre ambientes y eso puede generar conflictos a la hora de guardar URLs de diferentes organizaciónes.

Love this! 'Users' Tab does not work as-is but manual edit of URL is easy fix - tiny issue to me. Hard-refresh needed for icon to appear with Vivaldi but perfect ever since. Solid 5 for me - Console-like behavior I wish Salesforce had done years ago.

I wish you had import and export feature, but everything else is awesome!

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Why Salesforce requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

High Injects scripts into web pages, which may alter or extract site contents, resulting in a substantial risk.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

Why Salesforce is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this extension.
