Pass the Salesforce App Builder Platform-App-Builder Questions and answers with Dumpstech

The correct answer is D. Approval process.

The marketing director wants all free parts to receive sign-off before they are allowed. Salesforce Approval Processes are used to automate how records are approved, define who approves at each step, and specify actions after approval or rejection. Trailhead describes approval processes as automation for record approval and explains that approval steps assign approval requests to specific users.

Chatter approval is not the standard feature for formal record sign-off. Slack post and automated email message can notify people, but they do not enforce approval. An Approval Process is the correct declarative feature for required business sign-off.

===========

The correct answer is B. Use an AppExchange solution.

UC has a time-sensitive need and the developers are delayed for several months. AppExchange is the best recommendation because it provides ready-to-install apps, components, and solutions that can extend Salesforce without building everything from scratch. Salesforce describes AppExchange as the marketplace for ready-to-install solutions, including apps, components, and experts.

A and C still require building the solution internally. D. Bolt solution is more specific to prebuilt Experience Cloud/community templates and is not the best answer for a general custom component requirement. Salesforce describes Bolt Solutions as combinations of Lightning apps, business process flows, and Experience Builder templates/pages.

===========

The correct answer is C. Data Export Service.

Salesforce Data Export Service is the native tool used to export backup data from a Salesforce org. It allows admins to create export files of Salesforce data and schedule exports. Salesforce documentation describes Data Export as the feature for exporting backup data from Salesforce.

Important exam note: the question says “daily backup,” but standard Salesforce Data Export scheduling is commonly weekly or monthly depending on edition and settings. Among the listed options, Data Export Service is still the correct Platform App Builder answer.

A is incorrect because refreshing a Full Copy sandbox is not a backup strategy.

B is incorrect because packages move metadata, not org data backup.

D is incorrect because “Support expert” is not the Salesforce backup/export tool.

===========

The correct answer is B. Create a Chatter stream.

A Chatter stream gives users a combined feed from selected people, groups, and records. Salesforce documentation states that users can create a Chatter stream to get a combined view of feeds from selected profiles, groups, and records.

For this requirement, the sales rep can create a stream that includes only the key Account and Opportunity records, so their Chatter feed is filtered to those important records.

Why others are incorrect:

A. Chatter bookmarks save individual posts, but they do not create a filtered feed.

C. Chatter notification alerts users, but it does not filter the feed.

D. Chatter group is for group collaboration, not filtering posts from selected records.

===========

A permission set is the appropriate way to selectively grant the Salary record type to the hiring manager and VP of HR while other HR users retain ordinary access to applicant records. Salesforce explicitly supports assigning custom record types through permission sets. The base profile can provide the common Applicant object permissions and Hourly record type, while the additional permission set expands Salary record-type availability only for authorized users. This separates record creation capability from record-level visibility. Changing organization-wide defaults would unnecessarily affect who can view applicant records and does not control record-type selection. Simply making Hourly the default also does not prevent users from choosing another record type if they have access to it. Object-level Create permission cannot distinguish between two record types of the same object. Therefore, D provides the required granular access.

================

In-App Guidance is Salesforce ' s native capability for contextual onboarding, feature adoption, prompts, and guided walkthroughs directly inside Lightning Experience. Salesforce documents that administrators can create prompts and walkthroughs, determine the target audience, and specify where and when that guidance appears. Targeted prompts can highlight a specific page element, while walkthroughs connect multiple prompts into a step-by-step guided experience. This aligns directly with Universal Containers ' goals of increasing adoption and guiding users through a newly launched application. A Screen Flow is appropriate when collecting information or executing an interactive business process, but it is not the dedicated adoption feature. Dynamic Actions control which actions appear, while Dynamic Forms controls field and section presentation. Neither provides structured onboarding walkthroughs.

================

The correct answer is C. A delegated approver is the recommended Salesforce feature when the assigned approver is unavailable, such as during vacation. Salesforce documentation confirms that users can identify a delegate in approval settings, and delegated approvers can approve or reject approval requests.

This ensures the closed-won Opportunity can still be reviewed before the leaderboard is updated, even though the owner’s manager is away.

Why others are incorrect:

A is not the best recommended setup because relying on an assistant to reassign requests is manual and reactive.

B is incorrect because forwarding approval requests is not the standard solution for planned approver absence.

D is incorrect because assignment rules do not assign delegated approvers for approval processes.

===========

The correct answer is B.

Salesforce supports roll-up summary fields for summarizing related records, including scenarios involving Account and related Opportunity values. However, Salesforce documentation states that if Advanced Currency Management is enabled, currency roll-up summary fields are invalid when they are on Accounts and summarize Opportunity values.

Because the VP wants to aggregate Opportunity Amount values on Account, the app builder cannot create that roll-up summary field if Advanced Currency Management is enabled.

Why not others:

A is not the stated Salesforce limitation.

C is wrong because roll-up summary fields are available on Account in supported scenarios.

D is wrong because currency fields can be used in roll-up summaries generally; the issue is specifically Advanced Currency Management with Account-to-Opportunity currency rollups.

The correct answer is C. Create a validation rule that uses the PRIORVALUE function.

The requirement is: once Estimated Hours is set, users can decrease the value but cannot increase it. A validation rule can compare the new value with the old value by using PRIORVALUE() .

Example logic:

Estimated_Hours__c > PRIORVALUE(Estimated_Hours__c)

Salesforce documents PRIORVALUE() as the function used to return the previous value of a field, and Salesforce examples use it in validation rules to compare a changed value against the prior value.

A is incomplete because ISCHANGED() only detects that the field changed; it does not determine whether the value increased or decreased.

B is incorrect because a default value does not control later edits.

D is incorrect because PREVGROUPVAL() is used in reports, not validation rules.

===========

The correct answers are C. Email Alert, D. Task, and E. Outbound Message.

In a standard Salesforce approval process, available approval action types include Email Alerts, Tasks, Field Updates, and Outbound Messages. Since Field Update is not listed in the answer choices, the three valid action types from the options are Email Alert, Task, and Outbound Message. Salesforce documentation identifies approval-process actions around task, email alert, field update, and outbound message automation.

A. Invocable Flow is incorrect because it is not a standard approval-process action type in this exam context.

B. Decision Element is incorrect because Decision is a Flow element, not an approval-process action.
