Field-level security issues for NPSP billing street fields require systematic debugging through Setup menus, profile permissions, and Developer Console testing, but this manual process is time-consuming and error-prone.
Here’s how to instantly validate field permissions and eliminate the complexity of traditional FLS troubleshooting.
Get instant field permission validation
Traditional FLS troubleshooting involves navigating Setup menus, checking profile permissions, and running test queries in Developer Console. Coefficient eliminates this complexity by providing visual permission validation – connect with your integration user credentials and immediately see which fields are accessible.
Missing fields in the interface confirm FLS restrictions, while visible fields guarantee successful imports.
How to make it work
Step 1. Connect Coefficient with your Zapier integration user credentials.
Install Coefficient and authenticate using the exact same Salesforce Salesforce user credentials that Zapier uses. This ensures you’re testing permissions for the right user.
Step 2. Navigate to your NPSP Account or Household object.
Select “Import from Objects & Fields” and choose the same object where billing street access is failing. The field list shows only what your integration user can actually access.
Step 3. Check if billing street appears in the field list.
If billing street fields appear in Coefficient’s interface, FLS is not the issue – the problem lies elsewhere. If the fields are missing, you’ve confirmed an FLS restriction that needs to be resolved in Salesforce Setup.
Step 4. Resolve permissions in Salesforce Setup.
For missing fields, navigate to Setup → Object Manager → Account → Fields, find the billing street field, and click “Set Field-Level Security.” Verify your integration user’s profile has Read access, and check for any permission set assignments that might be needed.
Step 5. Create reliable imports once permissions are fixed.
After resolving FLS issues, use Coefficient to create imports with all address fields. Schedule automated refreshes to replace your Zapier workflow, and set up audit trails to track which fields were successfully imported.
Skip manual permission debugging
Visual permission validation eliminates hours of Setup navigation and guesswork. See exactly which fields are accessible and get error-free imports every time. Start using Coefficient for instant FLS troubleshooting.
