Tagline: Create hundreds of Salesforce custom fields in minutes — safely, accurately, and with validation.
FieldForge is a powerful Chrome Extension (Manifest V3) designed to help Salesforce developers and admins bulk-create Custom Fields using structured CSV/XLSX files.
Instead of manually creating fields one by one in Setup, FieldForge:
- Validates locally
- Validates against your org
- Packages metadata safely
- Deploys using the Salesforce Metadata API
- Provides real-time deployment logs
Built for speed, accuracy, and safe deployments.
- Upload CSV or Excel files
- Map columns to Salesforce metadata fields
- Preview parsed fields before deployment
- Supports multiple field types
Before deployment, FieldForge validates:
- Field API naming conventions
- Duplicate field detection (within file)
- Data type compatibility
- Required metadata attributes
- Picklist formatting
- Length constraints
Prevents common Metadata API failures.
After Salesforce login, FieldForge validates:
- Existing fields on target object
- Object existence check
- Namespace handling (if applicable)
- Profile visibility logic (if configured)
Ensures safe deployment to Dev, UAT, or Production.
- Generates structured metadata package
- Deploys using Metadata API
- Handles async deployment polling
- Displays deployment status in real-time
- Shows success / failure logs clearly
No manual ANT, no SFDX required.
- Live deployment status
- Error breakdown by field
- Failure reason visibility
- Partial success handling
- Clean structured error messages
- Salesforce OAuth-based authentication
- Access token handled securely
- No credential storage
- Works with Sandbox & Production
- Supports custom domain login
