MuleSoft for Salesforce Developers

Introduction to APIs and MuleSoft

The world is changing. Technologies keep emerging. There are more needs for technology now than there used to be, and it’s not a coincidence. Earlier, there were simple problems and simple solutions: maybe not the best solutions, but they worked well enough for the needs at the time. Now, we are swamped with different technologies we can choose from to achieve the same goal. We are bombarded with new programming languages, frameworks, and methodologies. What was popular yesterday is obsolete today. How do we keep up?

Before, it was good enough to just have an engineering or computer science degree to be able to thrive in the Information Technology (IT) world. Now, you don’t necessarily need a degree, but you do need to understand the basic terminology or learn the appropriate logic required to create software. A lot of people think this is a skill you are born with, that you either have what it takes to understand programming algorithms and patterns or you’re doomed to never be able to work in IT. This is not true – especially nowadays, in the no-code/low-code era.

Today, we can find mobile applications that do our work for us. There are tools online to help us write, design, paint, sing, and build, even if that is not our strongest suit. Why would programming be any different? This is where technologies such as Salesforce and MuleSoft come into play. The simplicity they’re based on helps you to thrive in this environment even if you don’t come from an IT background.

In this chapter, we’re going to cover the following main topics:

  • No-code and low-code technologies
  • Integrations
  • APIs
  • MuleSoft’s products
  • Application networks
  • API-led connectivity approach

Let’s start by understanding the need for an integration tool.

Key benefits

  • Build, implement, transform, secure, test, and deploy APIs using Anypoint Studio and Anypoint Platform
  • Integrate MuleSoft with Salesforce and other end systems to build an application network
  • Enhance your Salesforce and MuleSoft skills and employability with interview and certification tips and tricks

Description

MuleSoft for Salesforce Developers will help you build state-of-the-art enterprise solutions with flexible and scalable integration capabilities using MuleSoft’s Anypoint Platform and Anypoint Studio. If you’re a Salesforce developer looking to get started with this useful tool, look no further. This book will get you up to speed in no time, leveling up your integration developer skills. This essential guide will first introduce you to the fundamentals of MuleSoft and API-led connectivity, before walking you through the API life cycle and the Anypoint Studio IDE. Once you have the IDE set up, you’ll be ready to create Mule applications. You’ll look at the core components of MuleSoft and Anypoint Platform, and before long you’ll know how to build, transform, secure, test, and deploy applications using the wide range of components available to you. Finally, you’ll learn about using connectors to integrate MuleSoft with Salesforce and to fulfill a number of use cases, which will be covered in depth, along with interview and certification tips. By the end of this book, you will be confident building MuleSoft integrations at an enterprise scale and be able to gain the fundamental MuleSoft certification – MCD.

Who is this book for?

This book is for Salesforce developers who want to get started with MuleSoft. Salesforce architects will also find the concepts covered in the book useful in designing Salesforce solutions. Prior knowledge of any programming language and some basic integration concepts will be helpful, alongside basic familiarity with Salesforce development and experience with at least one Salesforce API – including the SOAP API, REST API, Bulk API, or Streaming API.

What you will learn

  • Understand how to use MuleSoft to achieve API-led connectivity
  • Design and create documentation for your API
  • Develop Mule applications and run them in Anypoint Studio
  • Monitor your applications from Anypoint Platform
  • Transform your data using DataWeave
  • Use the CI/CD and Mule Maven plugins
  • Run tests using MUnit and generate a code coverage report
  • Use best practices to maintain coding standards

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
