The SharinPix Visualforce Component

The syntax of the SharinPix Visualforce component is as follows:

<sharinpix:SharinPix parameters="{'Id': '{!CASESAFEID($CurrentPage.parameters.Id)}', 'abilities':{'{!CASESAFEID($CurrentPage.parameters.Id)}':{'Access': {'image_upload':true,'image_list':true,'see':true,'image_delete':true}}}}" height="600px"/>

The following parameters are used inside the SharinPix Visualforce component:

  1. height : refers to the height of the SharinPix Album in pixel units. Here it is set to 600px.
  2. parameters : refers to the set of SharinPix Abilities enabled or disabled in the SharinPix Album.

The parameters parameter contains:

  • An Album Id corresponding to the record Id containing the Visualforce page. This value is passed through the formula function CASESAFEID() which makes sure than the value corresponds to a 18-character record IdThe Album Id syntax is as follows:
'{!CASESAFEID($CurrentPage.Parameters.Id)}'

CASESAFEID() is a formula function  that replaces the 15 character ID (case sensitive) with a 18 character ID (case insensitive). 

  • A set of abilities referring to the abilities allowed on the SharinPix Album.
                          'Access': {
                              'image_upload':true,
                              'image_list':true,
                              'see':true,
                              'image_delete':true
