Welcome to Storacle!
Your installation is complete. Follow these quick steps to finish setup and start monitoring your Salesforce storage.
Quick Start: Open Storacle Home
Navigate to the Storacle app in your Salesforce org to complete setup:
Replace [your-domain] with your Salesforce My Domain (e.g., acme or acme--sandbox)
Complete Your Setup
Open the Storacle App
In Salesforce, use the App Launcher (9-dot grid icon) and search for "Storacle", or navigate directly using the URL above. You'll land on the Storacle Home page.
Configure Credentials
When you first open Storacle, a setup modal will appear. Click the "Configure" button to create the necessary Named Credential for your org.
Authorize Access
Click the "Authorize" button. This opens the External Credentials page in Salesforce Setup. Find the Storacle credential and click "Authenticate" to complete the OAuth flow.
Your Data Stays In Your Org
The credentials and authorization you just configured are purely internal. They allow the Storacle app—which runs entirely within your Salesforce org—to access your org's REST API for storage measurements.
- No external connections: Storacle does not send data to, or receive data from, any external servers or services.
- Runs inside your org: All Storacle code executes within your Salesforce environment using standard Apex and Lightning components.
- Org-to-org API access: The Named Credential enables Storacle's engine to call your org's own REST API endpoints (like /limits) to gather storage metrics.
- Data stays local: All measurement data is stored in custom objects within your org—never transmitted externally.
Enable the Engine
Return to the Storacle Home page. Once setup is complete (status shows green), toggle the Engine switch to start automated daily storage measurements.
What to Expect
First Measurement
Your first storage measurement will run when you enable the engine or click "Run Now". This captures a baseline of your current storage usage across all objects.
Daily Tracking
Once enabled, Storacle automatically measures storage daily. After a few days, you'll start seeing growth trends and can identify which objects are consuming the most space.
Reports & Dashboards
Storacle stores measurements in custom objects that you can report on. Build custom reports and dashboards to visualize storage trends over time.
Proactive Alerts
Set up threshold-based alerts to get notified when storage approaches critical levels, allowing you to take action before hitting limits.
Permission Sets
You're Already Set Up
As the installing user, you have already been assigned the Manager permission set. When you authorized the engine in Step 3, the Engine permission set was also granted to your user. You have everything you need to use Storacle.
Storacle includes three permission sets for different access levels:
Storacle Manager
Full administrative access including setup, configuration, and engine control.
Already assigned to: You (the installing admin)
Additional users: To assign the Manager permission set to other administrators, you must purchase additional Storacle Manager licenses from Salesforce AppExchange. Each manager user requires their own license.
Storacle Viewer
Read-only access to storage data, reports, and dashboards.
Storacle Engine
System-level access required for the automated measurement engine to run.
Important: This permission set was automatically granted to the user who authorized the engine (you). It should not be assigned to anyone else. The engine runs using the credentials of the authorizing user, and only that user needs this permission set.
