Q32. Just prior to a new deployment, the Salesforce Administrator who configured a new order fulfillment process in a developer sandbox suddenly left the company. The users had fully tested all of the changes in the sandbox and signed off on them.
Unfortunately, although a Change Set was started, it was not complete. A developer is brought in to help finish the deployment.
What should the developer do to identify the configuration changes that need to be moved into production?

Leverage the Setup Audit Trail to review the changes made by the departed Administrator and identify which changes should be added to the Change Set.

Use the Metadata API and a supported development IDE to push all of the configuration from the sandbox into production to ensure no changes are lost.

Set up Continuous Integration and a Git repository to automatically merge all changes from the sandbox metadata with the production metadata.

In Salesforce setup, look at the last modified date for every object to determine which should be added to the Change Set.

Q38. A developer is writing a Visualforce page that queries accounts in the system and presents a data table with the results. The users want to be able to filter the results based on up to five fields. However, the users want to pick the five fields to use as filter fields when they run the page. Which feature of Apex code is required to facilitate this solution?

REST API

Dynamic Schema binding

describeSObjects()

SOSL queries

Q39. A developer is asked to look into an issue where a scheduled Apex is running into DML limits. Upon investigation, the developer finds that the number of records processed by the scheduled Apex has recently increased to more than 10,000.
What should the developer do to eliminate the limit exception error?

Use the @future annotation.

Implement the Qususabls interface.

Implement the Batchable interface.

Use platform events.

Q40. Assuming the CreateOneAccount class creates one account and implements the Queuetable interface, which syntax tests the Apex code?

Q41. An environment has two Apex Triggers: an after-update trigger on Account and an after-update trigger on Contact. The Account after-update trigger fires whenever an Account’s address is updated, and it updates every associated Contact with that address. The Contact after-update trigger fires on every edit, and it updates every Campaign Member record related to the Contact with the Contact’s state.
Consider the following: A mass update of 200 Account records’ addresses, where each Account has 50 Contacts. Each Contact has 1 Campaign Member. This means there are 10,000 Contact records across the Accounts and 10,000 Campaign Member records across the contacts.
What will happen when the mass update occurs?

The mass update will fail, since the two triggers fire in the same context, thus exceeding the number of records processed by DML statements.

There will be no error, since each trigger fires within its own context and each trigger does not exceed the limit of the number of records processed by DML statements.

There will be no error, since the limit on the number of records processed by DML statements is 50,000.

The mass update of Account address will succeed, but the Contact address updates will fail due to exceeding number of records processed by DML statements.

Q42. Universal Containers decided to use Salesforce to manage a new hire interview process. A custom object called Candidate was created with organization-wide defaults set to Private. A lookup on the Candidate object sets an employee as an Interviewer.
What should be used to automatically give Read access to the record when the lookup field is set to the Interviewer user?

The record can be shared using an Apex class.

The record can be shared using a permission set.

The record can be shared using a sharing rule.

The record cannot he shared with the current setup.

Q43. What is the optimal technique a developer should use to programmatically retrieve Global Picklist options in a Test Method?

Perform a callout to the Metadata API.

Use the Schema namespace.

performs a SOQL Query.

Use a static resource

Q44. As part of point-to-point integration, a developer must call an external web service which, due to high demand, takes a long time to provide a response. As part of the request, the developer must collect key Inputs from the end user before making the callout. Which two elements should the developer use to Implement these business requirements?
Choose 2 answers

Lightning web component

2 Apex method that returns a Continuation object

Screen Flow

Process Builder

To implement the business requirements, the developer should use a Lightning web component and an Apex method that returns a Continuation object. A Lightning web component is a custom HTML element that can be used to create user interfaces for Salesforce apps. A Lightning web component can collect key inputs from the end user using various input components, such as lightning-input, lightning-combobox, or lightning-radio-group. A Lightning web component can also invoke an Apex method using the @wire decorator or the imperative Apex syntax. A Continuation object is a special Apex object that allows the developer to make a long-running request to an external web service and receive the response asynchronously. A Continuation object can specify the callback method, the timeout, and the request parameters for the callout. A Continuation object can also return a unique ID that can be used to reference the callout in the Lightning web component. To use a Continuation object, the developer should create and return a Continuation object in the Apex method that makes the callout, and annotate the method with @AuraEnabled(cacheable=true). The developer should also create and annotate another Apex method that acts as the callback method, and handles the response from the external web service. The developer should then invoke the Apex method that returns the Continuation object from the Lightning web component, and use the Continuation ID to track the status of the callout. The developer should also handle the callback event from the Apex method that acts as the callback method, and display the response data in the Lightning web component. Using a Screen Flow would not be effective, as a Screen Flow is a declarative tool that allows the developer to create guided, interactive processes for users, but it does not support making callouts to external web services. Using Process Builder would not be effective, as Process Builder is a declarative tool that allows the developer to automate business processes based on criteria and actions, but it does not support making callouts to external web services.

An External ID field can be used to reference a unique ID from another, external system.

An External ID can be a formula field to help create a unique key from two fields in Salesforce.

An External ID can be used with Salesforce Mobile to make external data visible.

Q49. Universal Containers (UC) wants to develop a customer community to help their customers log issues with their containers. The community needs to function for their German- and Spanish-speaking customers also.
UC heard that it’s easy to create an international community using Salesforce, and hired a developer to build out the site.
What should the developer use to ensure the site is multilingual?

Use Custom Settings to ensure custom messages are translated properly.

Use Custom Labels to ensure custom messages are translated property.

Use Custom Metadata to translate custom picklist values.

Use Custom Objects to translate custom picklist values.

Q50. A developer writes the following Apex trigger so that when a Case is closed, a single Survey record is created for that Case. The issue is that multiple Survey_c records are being created per Case.
trigger CaseTrigger on Case (after insert, after update){ List<Survey_c> createSurveys = new List<Survey_c>(); for (Case c : trigger.new){ if (c.IsClosed
&& (trigger.isInsert II trigger.isUpdate && trigger.oldMap.get(c.Id).IsClosed == false)){ createSurveys.add(new Survey_c(Case_c = c.Id)); } } insert createSurveys; } What could be the cause of this issue?

A user is creating the record as Closed

A workflow rule is firing with a Create Task action

A workflow rule is firing with a Field Update action

A user is editing the record multiple times

Q51. A developer created a JavaScript library that simplifies the development of repetitive tasks and features and uploaded the library as a static resource called rsutils in Salesforce. Another developer is coding a new Lightning web component (LWC) and wants to leverage the library, Which statement properly loads the static resource within the LWC?

import jsUtilities from ‘@salesforce/rescurceUr1/jaUtiles’;

<lightning-require scripts=”{|$Resource,jaUtils}”/>
