Salesforce Certified Sharing and Visibility Designer — Question 35

Universal Containers (UC) has implemented Customer Community with customer community plus licenses for its distributors. Retail distributors have part-time agents who work for multiple distributors. Those agents should have access to other distributor accounts as well.
What can be configured to grant agents access to different distributor accounts?

Answer options

• A. Use Apex sharing to share distributor accounts with agents using the Account_Share table.
• B. Create sharing rules to share distributor accounts with agents.
• C. Create sharing set to share distributor accounts with agents using account contact relationship.
• D. Use share group to share distributor accounts with agents who have account contact relationship.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because Apex sharing provides a programmatic way to share records, which is necessary in this scenario where part-time agents require access to multiple distributor accounts. Options B and C do not provide the required granularity for access needed in this case, and D is not applicable as share groups are not used for this type of sharing scenario.
