Creating new Salesforce records
CloudExtend tables already interact with Salesforce. When your table loads CloudExtend begins to cache possible values for drop-down fields in the Picklist at the top right of the Add-In. You can simply start entering values in Columns to begin. A more common use case, however, is for end-users to use Excel formulas (or even copy/paste) to populate the table.
