Update Custom Setting in Apex Salesforce

Many times we came across scenarios where we sometime need to insert/update/delete the custom setting in our apex logic. The below code will help you in that.

Syntax : 

<Custom Setting Name>   cs = new <Custom Setting Name>();
cs.<Custom Setting Field Name> = true;
insert cs;

Example 

Custom setting name is Test__c and one of the field name in custom setting is Active__c.

Test__c cs = new Test__c();

cs.Active__c = true;

insert cs;

Hierarchy Custom Settings

Now if you want to Insert a record in Hierarchy Custom Settings then,

Test__c cs = new Test__c();

cs.Active__c = true;

cs.SetupOwnerId = UserInfo.getUserId();

insert cs;

cs.SetupOwnerId-- You can add the user id or profile id.

Update Org Level Custom Settings

Test__c cs = Test__c.getOrgDefaults();
cs.Active__c = true;
update cs;

Difference Between Delete and Remove from Record in Notes & Attachments in Salesforce Lightning Experience

Lets understand the difference Between Delete and Remove from Record in Notes & Attachments in Salesforce Lightning Experience 

We must have seen two buttons on the menu option of file attached in Lightning Experience.

1. Delete

2. Remove from Record

Let us understand the difference between these.

When a user clicks one the delete button the files are deleted from all the records(parent/cloned both).

On the other hand, if a user click on the remove from record then the file is deleted only from the record.

Concerns:

There is no option to remove/hide these two from the menu options.

If there is any requirement to run a logic on delete then a trigger can be implemented on content document.
