Basic Setup - Step 3c for new Salesforce Mobile App Users - Setup SharinPix for Mobile (Lightning Experience)

This article demonstrates how to access the SharinPix Album component inside the Salesforce mobile app. To do so we will:

  1. Add the SharinPix Album component to an object's record page.
  2. Access the component inside the Salesforce mobile app.

Prerequisites:

The example presented in this article takes place within the new Lightning Experience. In order to proceed, you are therefore required to set up the new Lightning Experience for mobile.

If the new Lightning Experience is not enabled inside your Organisation, here are some useful articles that you can refer to:

Comparing Lightning Experience and Salesforce Classic

To determine if you are still using the Classic experience for mobile or if you are already using the new mobile Lightning Experience, you should check the following points:

  • You are in the mobile Classic Experience if 
    • You have rounded colored icons on the bottom when you open a record
    • You have Chatter/Details/Related tabs on the top such as Post, File, New Task, ...
  • You are in the new mobile Lightning Experience if 
    • You have rounded colored on the top such as Post, File, New Task, ...
    • You have greyed icons on the bottom such as Chatter, Today, Dashboard, and Menu

Tip:

One easy way to ensure that the Lightning Experience for mobile has been correctly configured in your organization is to take a look at the layout presented inside the Salesforce mobile app.

The following image depicts how the mobile layout looks like when using the Lightning Experience:

If the layout presented is similar to the one shown in the above image, this is an indication that the Lightning Experience has been correctly configured.

  • From Setup, look for New Salesforce Mobile App Quickstart using the Quick Find search box
  • Then, in the New Salesforce Mobile App for Tablet section, activate the option Give All Users Access as follows:

Note:

The option to enable the New Salesforce Mobile App for Tablet will be available on your Org only if you have upgraded with the New Salesforce Mobile App QuickStart in Winter '20 Release.

If you did not opt-in for this feature during Winter' 20 but, still want to access the Toggle for New Salesforce Mobile App for Tablet in the Setup section for New Salesforce Mobile App Quickstart, kindly create a case to request Salesforce Support to enable it on your Org.
