Accessing Grids

Once a grid is configured, it is ready for use. AppColab Grid provides a central hub for accessing all your grid configurations.

Grid Browser Tab

The Grid Browser is the primary entry point for end-users to find and access grids.

1. Navigate to the Grid Browser tab in Salesforce.
2. You will see a dashboard displaying your grid configurations as cards.
3. Search & Filter: Use the "Search Grids" bar or "Filter By Objects" dropdown to locate your specific grid.
4. Launch: Click the View button on the desired grid card to open it.
5. Create: Click + New Grid to start a new configuration (taking you to Grid Definitions).

Grid Accessibility and Limits

To ensure optimal performance and governance, AppColab Grid enforces active grid limits:

• Free Tier Limit: The standard free tier allows you to have 2 active grids at any given time. You can have more grids created, but only 2 can be enabled/active.
• Payment for More: If your organization requires more than 2 active grids simultaneously, you can upgrade your plan.
• Limit Exceeded Warning: If you have more active grids than your license permits, you will encounter a "Limit Exceeded" viewing block when attempting to access a grid from the Grid Browser or Record page.
• Resolution: When blocked, you will be directed to navigate to the Grid Administration tab where an administrator can either purchase additional licenses or deactivate existing active grids to fall within the limit.
