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

 The two actions that an app builder should take to meet the requirements are: Implement a sharing rule. A sharing rule is a way to grant additional access to records based on certain criteria, such as record owner, role, profile, or field value. The app builder can create a sharing rule that grants read access to all accounts with the VIP Account field value to all users. This way, all users can view these accounts, but only the owners can edit them. Change organization-wide defaults. Organization-wide defaults are the baseline level of access that users have to records they do not own. The app builder can change the organization-wide default for accounts from Public Read Only to Private. This way, only the owners can view and edit their own accounts, unless additional access is granted by other means, such as sharing rules. Configuring a permission set is not a valid action, as it does not affect record-level access. A permission set is a way to grant additional permissions and access settings to users on top of their profile settings, such as object permissions, field permissions, app permissions, etc. Setting up an Account Team is not a valid action, as it does not restrict record-level access. An Account Team is a way to share an account and its related records with a group of users who work together on the account, such as sales reps, managers, or support agents. An Account Team grants additional access to team members based on predefined roles and access levels.

Approval process is the best way to automate travel requests based on internal policy. Approval process can define the steps, criteria, and actions for approving records. The app builder can create an approval process for travel requests that requires approval from managers or executives before they are submitted. Workflow rule, Process Builder, and Apex are not suitable for this requirement.

Changing custom field types may result in data loss if the new field type is incompatible with the old one. For example, changing a text field to a number field may cause text values to be deleted. Field history tracking records value changes of 255 characters or less. If a rich text field value exceeds this limit, only the first 255 characters are tracked.

The feature that the app builder should use to create easy access to the document is a custom detail page link on the Contract object. A custom detail page link is a type of custom button or link that can display a URL or execute JavaScript when clicked. The app builder can create a custom detail page link on the Contract object that displays the pricing guidelines document in a new window or tab. Option A is incorrect because a quick action on the Contracts object is not suitable for this requirement, as quick actions are used to create or update records, log calls, send emails, or launch flows. Option B is incorrect because a quick action on the Account object is not suitable for this requirement, as quick actions are not related to the Contract object. Option C is incorrect because a custom detail page link on the Account object is not suitable for this requirement, as custom detail page links are not related to the Contract object.

The most likely reason why users are unable to view the custom Lightning component on mobile devices is that the component has been developed for Desktop Pages only. Some components are not supported on mobile devices or have different behavior on mobile devices. An app builder should check the component documentation or metadata to see if it is compatible with mobile devices.

The best way to implement this requirement is to create a formula field on the Case object using the TEXT function. A formula field can display the value of another field from a related object, such as the Account object. The TEXT function can convert a picklist value into text, which can be displayed on the Case record. Creating a formula field on the Account object using the ISPICKVAL function is not a valid solution, as it does not show the value of Support Level on the Case record. The ISPICKVAL function is used to check if a picklist field has a certain value, not to display it. Creating a Process Builder and using a field update on the Case object is not an optimal solution, as it requires more configuration and maintenance than a formula field. A Process Builder may also introduce delays or errors in updating the field value. Creating a roll-up summary field using Support Level on the Account object is not a valid solution, as it does not show the value of Support Level on the Case record. A roll-up summary field is used to aggregate numeric values from child records, not to display picklist values.

When Cloud Kicks needs to calculate summaries from child objects of a standard object declaratively, a few key considerations about master-detail relationships come into play. Master-detail relationships are critical in Salesforce when working with roll-up summary fields, which allow you to calculate values from child records.

Option B: An object can have up to two master-detail relationships.

Salesforce allows an object to have two master-detail relationships. This is important because if you want to aggregate child record data using roll-up summary fields, you need to have a master-detail relationship in place. Each master-detail relationship links a child object to a parent, and you can create roll-up summary fields on the parent object to summarize the child record data.

The correct validation rule formula to ensure that the Scheduled Ship Date field is properly filled out before setting the Opportunity to Closed Won is:

OR(ISPICKVAL( StageName ,“Closed Won”) && ( Scheduled_Ship_Date_cCloseDate)>14,ISBLANK(Scheduled_Ship_Date_c))

This formula checks two conditions: if the StageName is Closed Won and the Scheduled Ship Date is more than 14 days after the Close Date, or if the Scheduled Ship Date is blank. If either condition is true, the validation rule will fire and prevent saving the record. The other formulas are incorrect because they either use incorrect syntax (such as “=” instead of “,” or missing parentheses) or incorrect logic (such as checking if the Scheduled Ship Date is less than 14 days after the Close Date)

 A geolocation field can be used to capture the coordinates of a location in latitude and longitude. This field type can also be used in reports, formulas, validation rules, and Apex

The app builder should validate the inbound change set to ensure a smooth deployment to production. Validating an inbound change set allows the app builder to test whether the change set can be deployed without errors in the target org. Validating an inbound change set does not affect any data or metadata in the target org.

The app builder should use the CASESAFEID(Id) formula to create this new field. The CASESAFEID function returns the 18-digit case-insensitive version of the record ID, which is unique for each record in Salesforce. The 18-digit record ID is useful for exporting data to external systems that require case-sensitive IDs1. Option A, C, and D are not formulas that can return the 18-digit record ID.

To import leads while preventing duplicates:

B. Data Import Wizard is the appropriate tool. The Data Import Wizard in Salesforce includes functionality to check for duplicates based on matching records by certain criteria (like email or lead ID) during the import process, thus preventing duplicate lead records from being created.

More details on using the Data Import Wizard can be found in the Salesforce Data Import Wizard guide.

The app builder should use Web-to-Case to enable visitors to the website to open cases. Web-to-Case is a feature that allows users to create an HTML form that can be embedded into a public-facing website. When visitors fill out and submit the form, a new case is automatically created in Salesforce with the information from the form fields. Web-to-Case can also assign cases to queues or users based on predefined rules and criteria. Outbound message is not a valid tool, as it does not enable visitors to open cases. An outbound message is a type of workflow action that sends a secure XML message to a designated endpoint URL when a record meets certain criteria. An outbound message can be used to integrate Salesforce with external systems or applications. Screen flow is not a valid tool, as it does not enable visitors to open cases from a public-facing website. A screen flow is a type of flow that allows users to create an interactive guided process that can collect, display, and update data from multiple objects within Salesforce. A screen flow can be embedded into Lightning pages or Visualforce pages, but it cannot be exposed to unauthenticated users on a public website. Email-to-Case is not a valid tool, as it does not enable visitors to open cases from a website. Email-to-Case is a feature that allows users to create cases from email messages sent to a specific email address. Email-to-Case can also capture email attachments and thread information and associate them with the case.

A managed package from AppExchange is a custom solution that is developed by a third-party provider and can be installed in Salesforce. A managed package can be easily updated by the provider without affecting the existing functionality or customizations. This makes it suitable for the app builder’s requirement of ease of updates. Option B, C, and D are not as easy to update as a managed package.

To test a picklist field in a formula, ISPICKVAL must be used. To check if the CloseDate is within 7 days of the current date, you can use simple date arithmetic (CloseDate - 7 < TODAY()).

Why A is correct:Exact Extract:“Use ISPICKVAL to determine if a picklist field has a specific value.” — Salesforce Help | ISPICKVAL Function“Date formulas can use arithmetic to compare a date to TODAY(). For example, CloseDate - 7 < TODAY() returns TRUE if CloseDate is within the next week.” — Salesforce Help | Date Functions and Operators

Why not B:Picklist fields cannot be compared with =; this formula would fail to compile.

Why not C or D:The function DAY() returns the day of the month from a date — not a duration. DAY(7) is invalid in this context.

The app builder should create a master-detail relationship field on the gift card object to support the requirement. A master-detail relationship field creates a parent-child relationship between two objects, where the master record controls certain behaviors of the detail record. In this case, the Account object would be the master and the gift card object would be the detail. By creating a master-detail relationship field, the app builder can meet these requirements:

Track the total number of gift cards opened and gift cards issued on an Account: This can be done by creating roll-up summary fields on the Account object that count or sum up the values from the gift card records related to each account.

Permanently ensure the gift cards are unable to be moved across any other Account once it is created: This can be done by making the master-detail relationship field required on the gift card object, which means that every gift card record must be associated with an account record and cannot be changed once set. Option B, C, and D are not types of fields that can support this requirement.

To ensure data integrity where the Region field on the Contact object needs to be filled out conditionally based on the parent Account's status, a validation rule on the Contact is the most effective method:

B. Create a validation rule on Contact. This rule can enforce that the Region field must be filled out for Contacts related to Accounts marked as 'High Priority'.

Steps to create this validation rule:

Navigate to Setup → Object Manager → Contact → Validation Rules.

Create a new validation rule.

In the formula, use:

AND(

ISPICKVAL(Account.Customer_Status__c, 'High Priority'),

ISBLANK(Region__c)

) )

Provide an error message to display when the rule is violated.

Save and activate the rule.

This validation rule checks that if a Contact is associated with an Account marked 'High Priority', the Region field cannot be blank.
