Related List Tabs
Tabbed navigation for smarter record views.
Transform your related lists into a sleek tabbed interface. Whether it's payment methods or custom objects, Related List Tabs brings structure and clarity to small datasets - making them easier to explore, filter, and act on without cluttering the page.
A smarter way to navigate small datasets - organized, actionable, and fully configurable.
- Tabbed layout: Display any related list as a clean tab set for simplified viewing and navigation.
- Toolbar actions: Equip each tab with a contextual toolbar that supports custom and core actions.
- Custom action limits: Choose how many actions appear directly on the tab - others remain accessible via dropdown.
- Visual action formatting: Display actions as either icons or buttons, depending on your UI preferences.
- Grid control: Set row and column limits for a well-balanced, readable display.
- Sort and filter: Apply low-code filters and define sort logic (ascending/descending) to surface what matters most.

Frequently Asked Questions
If I install the GridMate package for all users, do I need to assign GridMate permission set(s) for each new user going forward?
Yes. The GridMate permission sets grant access to Apex classes, Visualforce pages, objects, and other components. When you first install the package and choose “Install for All Users,” these settings are automatically applied to existing users.
However, when new users are added later, you must manually assign the appropriate permission set. GridMate access is managed entirely through permissions, so assigning the permission set is highly recommended.
GridMate User
This is the base permission set required for any user who needs access to GridMate components (except User Grids). It includes object and field access, as well as Apex classes. Each GridMate user should have this permission.
GridMate Advanced User
This permission set is used to grant access to User Grids. Its purpose is for advanced users who require permission to create their own grids.
GridMate Admin
This permission set is used for Business Analysts to have access to the config wizard, inline configuration and SOQL Preview buttons. It's applicable only if they don't have access to the setup.
GridMate Cockpit User
The GridMate Cockpit User permission set allows users to manage all GridMate settings in one place - including grid-level field access, action controls, and component visibility. It grants access to the Cockpit tab and its features.
How do partner rewards work?
Partners who refer or sell GridMate earn a predefined percentage of the deal value. It’s simple, transparent, and rewarding.
Can I prevent my users from creating, editing, or deleting filters?
Yes. By default, GridMate provides a permission set called GridMate User to easily grant access to package components, including object settings, Apex classes, and more.
With this permission set assigned, users can create, edit, and delete end-user filters - provided this option is enabled on the grid.
However, in certain scenarios, admins may want to restrict these actions. Rather than duplicating and manually adjusting the permission set, we recommend using the Muted Permission Set feature in Salesforce.
1. Create a Permission Set Group that includes the GridMate User permission set.
2. Add a Muted Permission Set to that group by creating a new Muted Permission Set.
3. In the Muted Permission Set, mute Create/Update/Delete access for the DataGrid Preferences object.
4. Finally, remove all direct assignments of the GridMate User permission set from users. Instead, assign them the new Permission Set Group.
This approach ensures your users retain access to essential GridMate components while preventing them from modifying filter settings.
Please refer to Salesforce documentation for Muted Permissions.
Does GridMate support archived data filtering?
Yes. GridMate supports archived data via admin-defined filters. Use the following JSON string to enable archived row visibility:
{
"gmpkg__allRows": true
}
Are GridMate grids supported on the Salesforce Mobile App?
Absolutely! Here's what we recommend:
- Duplicate the existing grid in your Salesforce Org. This duplicated grid should be specifically configured for access by mobile users.
- Set a unique name that clearly identifies it as a mobile-friendly grid.
There are two key considerations when it comes to accessing grids on mobile devices:
Set the width for each column – This allows users to scroll horizontally.
Refer to column width specification here.
Set the height of the grid – This enables vertical scrolling.
Refer to the height specification here.
Note: We will be introducing a new component called ‘Mobile Grids’, which will be optimized specifically for mobile phones.
