<template>
<lightning-card>
<div slot=”title”>
<h3>

</p>

<div slot=”footer”>
<lightning-button label=”Submit” onclick={saveAccountAction} variant=”brand”></lightning-button>
</div>

</lightning-card>
</template>

Step 2:- Create Lightning Web Component : insertAccountLwc.js

SFDX:Lightning Web Component >> New >> insertAccountLwc.js

insertAccountLwc.js [JavaScript Controller]

import { LightningElement,track } from ‘lwc’;
import insertAccountMethod from ‘@salesforce/apex/lwcApexController.insertAccountMethod’;
import accName from ‘@salesforce/schema/Account.Name’;
import accPhone from ‘@salesforce/schema/Account.Phone’;
import accType from ‘@salesforce/schema/Account.Type’;
import accWebsite from ‘@salesforce/schema/Account.Website’;
import accSite from ‘@salesforce/schema/Account.Site’;

import {ShowToastEvent} from ‘lightning/platformShowToastEvent’;

export default class InsertAccountLwc extends LightningElement {
@track accountid;
@track error;
@track getAccountRecord={
Name:accName,
Phone:accPhone,
Type:accType,
Website:accWebsite,
Site:accSite

};

nameInpChange(event){
this.getAccountRecord.Name = event.target.value;
//window.console.log(this.getAccountRecord.Name);
}

phoneInpChange(event){
this.getAccountRecord.Phone = event.target.value;
//window.console.log(this.getAccountRecord.Phone);
}

typeInpChange(event){
this.getAccountRecord.Type = event.target.value;
//window.console.log(this.getAccountRecord.Type);
}

websiteInpChange(event){
this.getAccountRecord.Website = event.target.value;
//window.console.log(this.getAccountRecord.Type);
}

accSiteChange(event){
this.getAccountRecord.Site = event.target.value;
//window.console.log(this.getAccountRecord.Type);
}


saveAccountAction(){
window.console.log(‘before save’ + this.createAccount);
insertAccountMethod({accountObj:this.getAccountRecord})
.then(result=>{
window.console.log(this.createAccount);
this.getAccountRecord={};
this.accountid=result.Id;
window.console.log(‘after save’ + this.accountid);

const toastEvent = new ShowToastEvent({
title:’Success!’,
message:’Account created successfully’,
variant:’success’
});
this.dispatchEvent(toastEvent);
})
.catch(error=>{
this.error=error.message;
window.console.log(this.error);
});
}


}

Step 3:- Create Lightning Web Component : lwcApexController.cls

SFDX:Create Apex Class >> New >> lwcApexController.cls

lwcApexController.cls [Apex Class]

public with sharing class lwcApexController {

@AuraEnabled
public static Account insertAccountMethod(Account accountObj){
try {
insert accountObj;
return accountObj;
} catch (Exception exp) {
throw new AuraHandledException(exp.getMessage());
}
}
