Salesforce Certified Integration Architect — Question 67

Northern Trail Outfitters is in the final stages of merging two Salesforce orgs, but needs to keep the retiring org available for a short period of time for lead management as it is connected to multiple public web site forms. The Sales department has requested that new leads are available in the new Salesforce instance within 30 minutes.

Which approach will require the least amount of development effort?

Answer options

• A. Use the Composite REST API to aggregate multiple leads in a single call.
• C. Use the Tooling API with Process Builder to insert leads in real time.
• D. Call the Salesforce REST API to insert the lead into the target system.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because using the Salesforce REST API allows for a straightforward lead insertion into the new system with minimal setup. Options A and C involve more complexity and additional development work, such as aggregating leads or using Process Builder, which may not meet the 30-minute requirement as efficiently as a direct API call.
