Salesforce Platform Developer I (legacy) — Question 144

What is the result of the following code?

Account a = new Account ();
Database.insert (a, false);

Answer options

• A. The record will be created and no error will be reported.
• B. The record will not be created and no error will be reported.
• C. The record will be created and a message will be in the debug log.
• D. The record will not be created and an exception will be thrown.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the insert operation is being called with a 'false' value for the 'allOrNone' parameter, which means that if there is any issue with the record, it will not be created and no error will be reported. Options A and C incorrectly imply that the record would be created under the current conditions, while option D incorrectly states that an exception will be thrown.
