Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder — Question 261

Representatives at Cloud Kicks use Salesforce to record information for new Leads. When new prospects are added, an outbound message is sent to the data warehouse with the Lead's information.
What automation tool should an app builder use to meet this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Design an approval process that sends an outbound message.
• B. Create a workflow rule with an outbound message as the action.
• C. Create a process using Process Builder to send an outbound message.
• D. Use Lightning Flow to send an outbound message.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because Lightning Flow is specifically designed to handle complex processes, including sending outbound messages. While options A, B, and C mention other automation tools, they do not provide the same level of functionality or flexibility for this specific requirement as Lightning Flow does.
