When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to:

• Implement list and create functionality for custom objects
• Build GraphQL queries for listing records
• Create records and update lists without page reload
• Troubleshoot deployment errors related to list and create operations

List and create records (webApplication)

Pattern

• List: Query the object via GraphQL (executeGraphQL, uiapi.query.ObjectApiName__c). Use webApplicationFeature (GraphQL) for the connection shape (first/after, edges.node, field { value, displayValue }). Map nodes to a simple summary type; sort client-side by date or other field if needed.
• Create: Use createRecord from @salesforce/webapp-experimental/api. See webApplicationCreatingRecords for required/optional fields and id handling.
• Hook: One hook that fetches the list on mount and exposes refetch. After a successful create, call refetch() so the list updates without a full page reload.
• Form: Collect only fields that exist on the object. For picklist fields, use option values that match the object's value set (e.g. from the object's field metadata or a known value set). Default required picklists (e.g. Status to "New", Priority to "Standard") when the object defines defaults.
• UI: Table or cards for the list; form above or on a separate route. Show loading and error states for both list and submit. Optional: dashboard widget showing a slice of the list (e.g. first N items) with a "See all" link.
