Certified Pega Marketing Consultant v7.4 — Question 4

What is the simplest way to write a record to a database table each time an offer is sent to a customer?

Answer options

• A. Use an Update Status shape, specifying the field from the offer to store.
• B. Use a send shape on the offer flow, and select the "Write To DB" check box.
• C. Use a Capture Response shape on the offer flow, specifying the offer.
• D. Use the Update File shape, specifying the template used.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because using a Capture Response shape allows you to capture the necessary data about the offer and write it to the database. Options A and B do not directly address writing a record upon sending the offer, while D pertains to file updates rather than database records.
