  • Yes, follows are: String sUrlRewrite = System.URL.getSalesforceBaseUrl().toExternalForm(); newItem = new FeedItem(); newItem.ParentId = targetAccountId; newItem.Type = 'LinkPost'; newItem.Body = 'Case subject: ' + c.Subject + '\n Account Name: ' + map_accountId_account.get(c.AccountId).Name; newItem.Title = c.Subject; newItem.LinkUrl = sUrlRewrite + '/' + c.Id;

      //Adding a Link post
               FeedItem post = new FeedItem();
               post.ParentId = oId; //eg. Opportunity id, custom object id..
               post.Body = 'Enter post text here';
               post.LinkUrl = 'http://www.someurl.com';
               insert post;
