Salesforce Certified Integration Architect — Question 38

An integration architect has built a solution using REST API, updating Account, Contact, and other related information. The data volumes have increased, resulting in higher API calls consumed, and some days the limits are exceeded. A decision was made to decrease the number of API calls using bulk updates. The customer prefers to continue using REST API to avoid architecture changes.

Which REST API composite recourses should the integration architect use to allow up to 200 records in one API call?

Answer options

• A. Batch
• B. Composite
• C. SObject Collections
• D. SObject Tree

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, SObject Collections, as this allows for the inclusion of multiple records in a single API call, accommodating up to 200 records. Option A, Batch, is not suitable as it is designed for asynchronous processing and does not directly support this bulk update in a single call. Option B, Composite, allows multiple requests but does not handle bulk record updates in the same manner. Option D, SObject Tree, is used for creating parent-child records in a single request but does not support the bulk update of existing records as required in this scenario.
