List-view mass action
A one-line custom list button lets end users tick records and trigger a batch generation without building a Flow and without an admin involved at runtime. An admin adds the button once per object; after that it is self-service.
Add the button
Section titled “Add the button”- Go to Setup > Object Manager and pick the object: Account, Opportunity, Contact, Case, Lead, Order, or any custom object.
- Open Buttons, Links, and Actions and click New Button or Link.
- Set Display Type to List Button with Display Checkboxes (for Multi-Record Selection) ticked.
- Set Behavior to Display in existing window with sidebar and Content Source to URL.
- Set the URL to
/flow/Generate_Sliick_Docs_From_List_View. - Save, then add the button to the list view’s Search Layouts > List View layout.
The same button URL works for every object: the object type is detected automatically from the records you select.
Use it
Section titled “Use it”- From any list view with the button installed, tick up to 200 records.
- Click Generate Sliick Docs in the list-view button bar.
- Pick a template that matches the object’s base object, and an output format (PDF or Word).
- Submit. The batch lands in the Doc Batches console with full status monitoring.
Note: 200 records per click is the Salesforce list-view selection cap, not a Sliick Docs setting. For larger runs, submit a batch by filter or by report instead.
