I dont work much on Salesforce, but good to see you are really growing in your new job. And i must say your communication and accent totally improved.

[@ThatSalesforceGuy]

Thank you Yogi, this means alot :)

[@Anony_moouse]

Excellent video , just had one doubt can you explain the callback URL in detail , on what exactly you used that particular URL??

[@ThatSalesforceGuy]

Thank you, regarding callback url, umm imagine a callback URL like a doorbell. When a computer finishes its job, it rings this special doorbell to tell your computer, 'I'm done!
