      How to create a Community User with a Trigger in Salesforce?

      Posted by Prachi on December 3, 2019 at 4:32 PM

      When a new Account is created with recordType as 'Corporate', then create Account's Contact as Community User and Submit the record for the Approval.

      Hi,

      Have a look to the below code:-

      trigger UserFromContact on Contact (after insert) {
      set<ID> conids = new set<ID>();
          for(Contact c : trigger.new){
              if(c.accountid != Null && c.recordtype ='Customer_Contact'){
                  conids.add(c.id);           
          }  
      }
      List<contact> conlist = [select id,email,firstName,lastname,accountId from Contact where Id IN : conids];
      List<user> usr = new List<user>();
          for(Contact con : conlist){
           string nick = con.email!=null?con.email.substring(0, con.email.indexOf('@')):''; nick += Datetime.now().getTime();       
          User newUser = new User(
                          alias = ('con.firstName'),
                          email = con.email,
                          emailencodingkey = 'UTF-8',
                          firstname = con.firstName,
                          lastname = con.lastname,
                          languagelocalekey = 'en_US',
                          localesidkey = 'en_US',
                          contactId = con.Id,
                          timezonesidkey = 'America/Los_Angeles',
                          username = con.email,
                          CommunityNickname = nick,
                          ProfileId = '00e1a000000V5BU',
                          IsActive = true);
                          usr.add(newUser);        
          }    
           Insert usr;
      }
