Platform-App-Builder Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder (Plat-Admn-202) Free Practice Exam Questions (2025 Updated)

 The two recommended solutions for the app builder to give the users appropriate access are creating a criteria based sharing rule to all opportunities with the sales operations public group and adding a permission set with ‘View All" and ‘Modify All’’ opportunity permissions enabled. A criteria based sharing rule can grant read and write access to all opportunities that meet certain criteria to a specified group of users. A permission set can grant additional object-level permissions to users without changing their profiles. Option B is incorrect because adding a manual share for all opportunities with each user on the sales operations team is not scalable or maintainable. Option D is incorrect because creating a criteria-based sharing rule to share all opportunities with the sales operations private group is redundant, as private groups are used to manually share records with individual users or other groups.

The setting for the visibility of custom tabs is default off for all users when they are deployed via change sets without including the profile settings or permission sets. This means that the custom tabs are not visible in any apps or navigation menus for any users unless they are manually added by each user or by an administrator3. Option B, C, and D are not correct settings for the visibility of custom tabs.

The best way to calculate an overdue date that is two months after a task due date is to use a formula field with the ADDMONTHS() function. This function adds a specified number of months to a date value, and returns a new date value. See [this article] for more information on formula fields.

The two considerations that should be made are: The Star records are all required to have an existing value in their Galaxy field. This is a prerequisite for converting a lookup relationship to a master-detail relationship. A lookup relationship is an optional relationship that links two objects together, but does not enforce referential integrity or cascade delete. A master-detail relationship is a required relationship that links two objects together and enforces referential integrity and cascade delete. To convert a lookup relationship to a master-detail relationship, all child records must have a value in their lookup field that references an existing parent record. The Galaxy object has fewer than two existing master-detail relationships. This is another prerequisite for converting a lookup relationship to a master-detail relationship. An object can have up to two master-detail relationships with other objects and can act as both the parent and child in different relationships. To convert a lookup relationship to a master-detail relationship, the parent object must have fewer than two existing master-detail relationships with other objects. The Galaxy object is required to contain existing roll-up summary fields is not a valid consideration, as it is not related to converting a lookup relationship to a master-detail relationship. 

The best actions to take to avoid creating duplicate leads when uploading a list of 400 leads are to utilize a Lead Matching Rule and corresponding Duplicate Rule to block newly created duplicate leads, and to upload the lead list using the import wizard and select a Matching type to prevent duplicate lead creation. The Lead Matching Rule defines the criteria for identifying duplicate leads, and the Duplicate Rule defines the actions to take when a duplicate is detected. The import wizard allows users to choose a Matching type based on the Lead Matching Rule and block or allow duplicates. Using Data Loader’s update function or enabling Duplicate Matching in the Data Management section will not prevent duplicate lead creation.

 One of the easiest ways to display real-time stock price for each account is to install a solution from the AppExchange, such as Stock Price Lightning Component3. This component can be added to any record page using the Lightning App Builder.

The best choice for capturing geographic location data, such as crossroads or location markers provided by customers, is the Geolocation field type. This field type stores latitude and longitude data, allowing accurate pinpointing of locations on a map. Geolocation fields are suitable for any application that needs to handle coordinates for mapping and proximity calculations.

A: Number field is not specific enough for geographical coordinates.

C: Reference fields link to other records, not geographical data.

The app builder should use the Path feature to provide the functionality that the VP of Sales wants. The Path feature allows an app builder to create a visual representation of the stages in a business process, such as the Opportunity sales process. The app builder can also add key fields, guidance, and resources for each stage to help sales reps gather information and complete tasks4. Option A, C, and D are not features that can provide this functionality.

 The app builder should use two options to ensure all contracts route for the correct approval and also prevent the sales rep from making changes to the record while it is being approved:

Create an approval process on the Contract object with criteria set on a second approval step set as ‘Amount__c > 10,000’ and set the approver as director. An approval process is a type of process that automates how Salesforce records are approved in an organization. An approval process can have multiple steps with different criteria and approvers. In this case, the app builder can create an approval process on the Contract object with two steps: one for the sales manager approval and one for the director approval if the contract amount is over $10,0001.

Create a validation rule on the Contract object that prevents updates to the contract record while it is being reviewed. A validation rule is a type of rule that checks data quality by verifying that the data in a record meets certain standards before it can be saved. A validation rule can prevent users from making changes to a record that is in a certain status or stage. In this case, the app builder can create a validation rule on the Contract object that prevents updates to the contract record if its Approval Status field is not equal to Not Submitted2. Option B and D are not options that can ensure all contracts route for the correct approval and also prevent the sales rep from making changes to the record while it is being approved.

 To create “with” or “without” reports on the new custom object, a custom report type is needed. A custom report type defines the relationship between one or more standard or custom objects for reporting purposes. It allows users to select which fields they want to display in their reports and filter by related objects. 

The email button item will not be visible on the Lightning record page if the page layout includes the case feed component or if the email button contains JavaScript. The case feed component replaces the standard buttons on the page layout with actions in the feed. The email button item will not work if it contains JavaScript because JavaScript buttons are not supported in Lightning Experience.

The primary object selection is locked once the custom report type has been saved. This means that the app builder cannot change the primary object later. The other options are not true.

To add components to the utility bar of an existing app:

C. App Manager. This is where Salesforce apps are configured, including the utility bar which can house components like a chat tool, recent items list, or custom Lightning components.

Steps to edit an app's utility bar:

Navigate to Setup → App Manager.

Locate the desired app and click on the dropdown next to it → select Edit.

In the App Builder, navigate to the Utility Items tab.

Click 'Add' to include new components to the utility bar.

Configure the properties of the utility item as needed.

Save the app configuration.

For step-by-step instructions on modifying apps, see Salesforce's guide on Managing Apps in Lightning Experience.

 Two Master-detail relationships on a new custom object is how an app builder should configure the data model to create a relationship between Contact and Solar Project objects where each Contact can be related to multiple Solar Project objects, and each Solar Project can have multiple Contacts associated with it. This is an example of a many-to-many relationship that requires a junction object with two master-detail relationships. One Master-detail relationship on Contact and one Master-detail relationship on Solar Project, two Lookup relationships on a new custom object, and one Lookup relationship on Contact and one Lookup relationship on Solar Project are not valid or correct ways to create a many-to-many relationship.

This formula concatenates the four custom fields for the Galactic Vendor’s location into a single text value, separated by commas and spaces. The formula also uses the BR function to insert a line break after the second field, creating two lines of text. Option A, B, and D are not formulas that fulfill the requirement.

 A flow is a powerful automation tool that can perform complex logic and data manipulation. A flow can be used to delete rejected quotes by using a record-triggered flow that runs when a quote is updated, or by using a scheduled flow that runs at a specified time.

Formula fields in Salesforce can use various functions including text, mathematical, and logical functions to create simple or complex expressions. They can handle data from fields of the same record. Option C, "A combination of the Opportunity's Text and a Description fields," is a valid configuration for a formula field as it involves simple concatenation of text fields, which is supported.

Options A, B, and D exceed the capabilities of formula fields:

A: Hyperlinks to other objects using formula fields do not directly support navigation to parent records of a different object.

B: Rich Text and HTML formatting are not supported in formula fields.
