Salesforce Quick Navigator

Salesforce Quick Navigator: An Extension for environment watermarks and fast navigation in Salesforce orgs.

Instantly identify your Salesforce environment and navigate across orgs with keyboard-driven speed. Salesforce Quick Navigator adds visual watermarks, omnibox shortcuts, tab organization, and a quick-access popup to your Salesforce workflow. Built for admins, developers, and consultants who work across multiple Salesforce environments daily. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ENVIRONMENT WATERMARKS Never deploy to the wrong org again. A configurable watermark displays "PRODUCTION" or the sandbox name (e.g., "DEV", "QA", "UAT") on every Salesforce page. The watermark appears on page load so you can verify your environment at a glance, then fades away on your first click or keypress to stay out of the way. Customize everything: • Font size (50–300px) • Opacity (5–50%) • Color per environment (red for production, green for sandbox by default) • Position: diagonal, top-left, top-right, top-center, or center ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ OMNIBOX QUICK NAVIGATION Type "sf" in the address bar followed by a target to jump anywhere in your Salesforce org instantly. No mouse, no clicking through menus. Examples: • sf admin → Production Setup Home • sf dev admin → Dev sandbox Setup Home • sf flow → Flow Builder • sf cases → Case list view • sf dev copy → Open current page in dev sandbox • sf 001xx000003DGbY → Jump directly to a record Navigate to any standard or custom object by name. Paste a 15 or 18-character Salesforce ID to go straight to that record. Use "copy" to mirror your current page in a different environment — great for comparing data across orgs. Control where links open: • Default → current tab • * prefix → new tab (e.g., sf *dev admin) • ** prefix → new window (e.g., sf **dev cases) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ POPUP DASHBOARD Click the extension icon for a quick-access panel with: • Environment selector — Switch between Production and your configured sandboxes with one click. The selected environment is auto-detected from the current tab. • Navigation buttons — Admin, Flows, Sandbox, DevOps, Login, and Copy, all one click away. • Custom targets — Your own bookmarked Salesforce paths appear as buttons. • Recent pages — The last 5 Salesforce pages you visited, with relative timestamps. Click any entry to go back. • Quick Nav — Type an object name or Salesforce ID to navigate directly. Includes autocomplete for standard objects. • Open-in control — Choose whether links open in the current tab, a new tab, or a new window. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ TAB GROUPING BY ENVIRONMENT Automatically organizes your Salesforce tabs into color-coded browser tab groups. Production tabs go into a red "PROD" group. Each sandbox gets its own distinctly colored group (e.g., green "DEV", blue "QA"). • Auto-grouping — Enable in options to group every Salesforce tab as it loads. • Manual grouping — Press Alt+Shift+G to sort all open tabs into groups on demand. • Consolidate tabs — Press Alt+Shift+T to pull all Salesforce tabs from every window into your current window and organize them into groups. Non-Salesforce tabs in other windows stay where they are. • Non-Salesforce tabs are moved to the front of the tab bar, keeping your workspace tidy. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS • (Option on mac/Alt on Windows)+S — Open the popup • (Option on mac/Alt on Windows)+Shift+G — Group all Salesforce tabs by environment • (Option on mac/Alt on Windows)+Shift+T — Consolidate all Salesforce tabs into the current window All shortcuts can be remapped at chrome://extensions/shortcuts. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ CUSTOM TARGETS Add up to 10 custom navigation targets with a short name and a Salesforce URL path. Access them from the popup or the omnibox. Paste a full Salesforce URL and the path is extracted automatically. Target names support flexible plural matching — "site" matches "sites" and vice versa. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SANDBOX DISCOVERY Click "Scan Browser History" on the options page and the extension finds every sandbox you've visited, automatically populating your sandbox list. No need to remember or manually enter sandbox names. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SETTINGS SYNC & BACKUP All settings sync across Chrome instances via chrome.storage.sync. Export your entire configuration as a JSON file for backup or sharing, and import it on another machine to restore instantly. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SUPPORTED DOMAINS Works on all Salesforce domains: • *.salesforce.com • *.lightning.force.com • *.salesforce-setup.com ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PRIVACY This extension does not collect, transmit, or store any personal data.
