My Experiment with ChatGPT for Salesforce Related Questions

ChatGPT is an is a AI powered chatbot that will provide you answers to any questions that you ask. It was released as a prototype in late November ‘2022 and has become a rave in the technology world. It stands for “Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer”.

Though you can ask any question under the sun, I experimented with asking questions related to Salesforce and the responses were mind boggling. I think this takes the technology in general and AI in particular to another level.

Here is an example. I asked chatGPT “Give me salesforce apex code to update all contact addresses with account address for an account”

And here is the code that chatGPT generated for me. Unbelievable!

// Retrieve the Account record
Account account = [SELECT Id, BillingStreet, BillingCity, BillingState, BillingPostalCode, BillingCountry FROM Account WHERE Id = :accountId];

// Retrieve all the Contacts for the Account
List<Contact> contacts = [SELECT Id, MailingStreet, MailingCity, MailingState, MailingPostalCode, MailingCountry FROM Contact WHERE AccountId = :accountId];

// Update the address fields of each Contact with the Account's address
for (Contact contact : contacts) {
  contact.MailingStreet = account.BillingStreet;
  contact.MailingCity = account.BillingCity;
  contact.MailingState = account.BillingState;
  contact.MailingPostalCode = account.BillingPostalCode;
  contact.MailingCountry = account.BillingCountry;
}

// Save the updated Contacts
update contacts;
