Prepare for Google Chrome’s Changes in SameSite Cookie Behavior That Can Break Salesforce Integrations
The Google Chrome 80 release changes the default cross-domain (SameSite) behavior of cookies. This change enhances security and privacy, but requires customers and partners to test custom Salesforce integrations that rely on cookies. We support the ongoing effort to improve privacy and security across the web. We updated the SameSite attribute on cookies set by Salesforce. The fixes are in Spring '20 and they apply to Chrome 78 and later.
Empty the Recycle Bin in One Step
Empty your Salesforce org’s Recycle Bin in Lightning Experience with a single click. Previously, you either selected individual items to delete, or had to switch to Salesforce Classic to permanently delete all items at once.

Manage your deleted reports and dashboards in the Recycle Bin for Lightning Experience. Now you can view, restore, and permanently delete your reports and dashboards without switching to Salesforce Classic.

Require Secure HTTPS Connections (Critical Update)
As part of updates related to Google Chrome’s SameSite cookie changes, HTTPS connections are required to access Salesforce. HTTP connections are no longer permitted. This update enables the Require secure connections (HTTPS) setting on the Session Settings Setup page and prevents it from being disabled. The Require secure connections (HTTPS) for all third-party domains setting isn’t affected by this update.
Open Hyperlinks in Formula Fields Correctly (Previously Released Critical Update)
If you have formula fields that contain a HYPERLINK function, Lightning Experience ignores the target value when attempting to open the link. This critical update ensures that the target value for hyperlinks is honored, whether it’s explicitly configured or set by default. This critical update was first made available in Winter ’19.
Keep Working with Tab-Focused Dialogs (Previously Released Critical Update)
In Lightning console apps, dialogs no longer stop you from interacting with the rest of the UI. This critical update limits the focus of dialogs triggered by a workspace tab or subtab to only the tab that triggered it. This critical update was first made available in Winter ’20.
