To run Salesforce Optimizer:
Customize Application, Modify All Data, AND Manage Users
Consider running Salesforce Optimizer as part of your monthly maintenance, before
installing a new app, before each Salesforce release, or at least once a quarter. You can
run the report as often as you want to keep on top of maintenance activities. You can set
the App to run automatically on a monthly basis.
From Setup, enter Optimizer in the Quick Find box, then select
Optimizer.
Enable Optimizer by allowing access, if you haven’t done so already.
Decide if the app should automatically run and update.
Click Open Optimizer.
Important If you have a large Salesforce org, analysis can take more than 24
hours. After you start a run, close the app and check back later. Or, refresh the
browser tab to see the latest run status. Don’t run Optimizer again until the run has
finished.
Salesforce sends an in-app notification when results are ready. Access Optimizer results
by clicking the notification. Or, return to the Optimizer in Setup to review your
results.
In the App, Org Metric History is shown with graphs for file storage limits, data
storage limits, and static resource limits. These graphs give a high-level visual overview
for how these limits have impacted your org.
Salesforce also saves an
.xls file in Salesforce Files. The file includes some of the
information from the report:
Feature section and subsection per the report’s table of contents
Type of feature analyzed, along with the number of items found
Severity of observation
Use the .xls file to load the data into Salesforce to analyze it for trending and
historical analysis. By uploading data into a Salesforce custom object, you can create
workflow triggers and alerts when various thresholds are reached.
