Manage Community Member Programmatically

Add Community Member


Salesforce stores community membership in object called NetworkMemberGroup. Although Salesforce says ‘create’ allowed on Network Member but seems that not allowed using apex code. No worries, we can make a post REST call for the same:

First add your salesforce base url as remote site setting then add this code as part of your implementation:

String endpoint = URL.getSalesforceBaseUrl().toExternalForm()+'/services/data/v47.0/sobjects/NetworkMemberGroup';
HttpRequest httpRequest = new HttpRequest();  
httpRequest.setEndpoint(endpoint);  
httpRequest.setMethod('POST'); 
httpRequest.setHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + UserInfo.getSessionID()); 
httpRequest.setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json;charset=UTF-8'); 

//Change network id and profile/permission set Id
httpRequest.setBody('{"NetworkId":"0DB900000008Qga","ParentId":"00e90000001uNre"}');
Http http = new Http();
HttpResponse httpResponse = http.send(httpRequest);
  • Add community/internal profile id or a permission set as ParentId
  • Provide Community id as NetworkId

Set Default Community for a Profile

Salesforce stores community membership in object called Network Affinity. Although Salesforce says ‘create’ allowed on this object but seems that not allowed using apex code. But we can make a post REST call for the same as previously:

String endpoint = URL.getSalesforceBaseUrl().toExternalForm()+'/services/data/v47.0/sobjects/NetworkAffinity';
HttpRequest httpRequest = new HttpRequest();  
httpRequest.setEndpoint(endpoint);  
httpRequest.setMethod('POST'); 
httpRequest.setHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + UserInfo.getSessionID()); 
httpRequest.setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json;charset=UTF-8'); 

//Change network id and profile/permission set Id
httpRequest.setBody('{"NetworkId":"0DB900000008Qga","ProfileId":"00e90000001uNre"}');
Http http = new Http();
HttpResponse httpResponse = http.send(httpRequest);
  • Add community/internal profile id as ProfileId field
  • Provide Community id as NetworkId

    I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and
    was curious what all is required to get set up?
    I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?

    I’m not very internet savvy so I’m not 100% positive.
    Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you
