Systems, methods, and devices are disclosed herein that provide management of usage of application program interfaces. A computing platform may be configurable to cause detecting a first action comprising an event at a user interface associated with an on-demand application hosted by the computing platform, and making, using a first application program interface (API), an asynchronous call for a data record in response to detecting the first action, the asynchronous call being made to a storage location of the computing platform. The computing platform may also be configurable to cause detecting a second action associated with the on-demand application, and determining if a synchronous call should be performed using a second API, the synchronous call being made in response to determining that a cache does not include the data record. The computing platform may also be configurable to cause generating a result responsive to the second action.

Systems, methods, and devices for improved application program interface management in a cloud-computing environment

Methods, systems, and devices for data processing are described. According to the techniques described herein, an application server may be used for real-time provisioning for features for a user. The application server may validate requests from the user for feature activation or deactivation and after validation, may communicate with a provisioning server, which may be non-local to the user or the application server, to indicate validation and activation or deactivation of a feature for the user.

Real-time feature activation in distributed environment

Techniques are disclosed relating to retrieving data from an in-memory cache, such as that for a database system. In various embodiments, an in-memory cache receives a request from an application for data, where the request specifies a class having a function executable to access the data from a location external to the cache in response to a cache miss. The cache handles the request such that the cache miss is not returned to the application. Specifically, the cache, in some embodiments, determines whether it stores the requested data, and in response to determining that it does not store the data, calls the function of the class to access the data from the location external to the cache and receives the data returned by the execution of the function. The cache then stores the received data in the cache and returns the received data in response to the request.

Techniques for handling requests for data at a cache

A computer implemented method for delegating administration duties using application containers may include associating, by a database system, a custom object to a delegated administrator; associating, by the database system, an application container with a custom object; and enabling, by the database system, the delegated administrator to manage the custom object based on permissions included in the application container, wherein the application container includes a subset of permission included in an application permission.

Delegating administration rights using application containers

Disclosed are examples of systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products for providing user-customizable permissions governing user access to computing resources in a computing system. For example, a database storing data objects identifying permissions of users, sets of the permissions, and users can be maintained. One or more fields can be displayed on a display of a user device. The one or more fields can be configured to receive input to perform one or more operations. Input can be received from a user via the user interface on the display of the user device. One or more operations can be performed. The database can be updated such that the data objects identify a custom permission or a permission set to which a custom permission has been assigned.

User-customizable permissions in a computing environment

Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable storage media for modifying permission sets and validating permission set assignments to users. In some implementations, a computing device receives a request to create a permission set containing one or more permissions and assign the permission set to a first user. The first user is associated with a first user constraint that defines a first group of permissions available to the first user. The computing device may determine that the permission set to be assigned to the first user does not violate the first user constraint, and may assign the permission set to the first user.

Computer implemented methods and apparatus for managing permission sets and validating user assignments

Disclosed are methods, devices, and computer readable storage media for providing permissions to users in an on-demand service environment. A server receives criteria indicating characteristics of users and/or permission sets. Selected permission sets can be assigned to identified users. Data indicating the assignment of the permission sets can also be stored.
