Enabling Developer Console Using Permission Sets

Enabling and giving permission to the Developer Console in Salesforce provides users with a powerful tool for debugging, testing, and developing custom code or applications. Here’s a quick guide on how to enable login or permission for a user.

  • First, visit the Salesforce Setup portal
  • Next, visit the Permission Sets page within the Users section and Create a new permission set. Click New on the Permission Sets dashboard. Give it a Label, API Name, and Description. Then click Save.

  • Within the newly created permission set, click on the System Permission tab underneath the System heading. Here you will be able to edit types of permissions that are applicable across multiple applications.

  • Checkmark and enable the permission for Author Apex and View All Data. Then click Save.
