Lesson: 096 | Control User Creation with Metadata

User Story

As a Salesforce Admin,
I want to control user creation in different environments using metadata,
so that users are only created when the metadata is active, preventing unnecessary user creation in all environments.

Acceptance Criteria:

1. A Custom Metadata Type named User_Creation_Control__mdt should be created.

2. The metadata should have a checkbox field Is_Active__c to determine whether user creation is enabled.

3. A metadata record should be created with:

   • Label: User Creation Control

   • Is_Active__c defaulting to FALSE (to prevent user creation by default).

4. The following flows should be modified to check the metadata before creating a user:

   • EduStandBy | Auto-Create User for New Contact

   • EduStandBy | Auto-Create User for New Teacher

5. Flow logic should be updated as follows:

   • Before creating a user, Get Records should retrieve User_Creation_Control__mdt.

   • If Is_Active__c = TRUE, proceed with user creation.

   • If Is_Active__c = FALSE, exit the flow without creating a user.

6. The metadata should be configurable without modifying flow logic, allowing easy enable/disable of user creation in different environments.
