Salesforce Certified Data Architect — Question 29

Universal Containers (UC) has a very large and complex Salesforce org with hundreds of validation rules and triggers. The triggers are responsible for system updates and data manipulation as records are created or updated by users. A majority of the automation tools within UC's org were not designed to run during a data load. UC is importing 100,000 records into Salesforce across several objects over the weekend.
What should a data architect do to mitigate any unwanted results during the import?

Answer options

• A. Ensure validation rules, triggers, and other automation tools are disabled
• B. Ensure duplication and matching rules are defined
• C. Bulkify the triggers to handle import loads
• D. Import the data is smaller batches over a 24-hour period

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as disabling validation rules, triggers, and other automation tools prevents unintended processing and errors during the data import. Options B and C do not address the immediate risks associated with automation during bulk imports, while option D may help but is not as effective as completely disabling conflicting processes.
