Salesforce Updated Platform-App-Builder Exam Questions and Answers by darcie-mae

AW Computing wants to grant access to all users in the Service Manager role for Opportunities of type Service Agreement in a private sharing model.

Criteria-based sharing rules allow sharing records automatically based on field values (e.g., Type = Service Agreement) to roles, public groups, or users.

Salesforce documentation confirms that when the org-wide default is private, sharing rules are the declarative way to grant access to specific users based on criteria. (Salesforce Help)

Owner-based sharing rules share based on the record owner, not a field criterion.

Apex sharing rules are needed only if declarative sharing is insufficient.

Manual sharing requires user action and is not scalable.

===========

The correct answer is B. Field-level security.

Only users with the Outer Planets profile need to see the Jupiter field. Salesforce field-level security, also called field permissions, controls whether users can view or edit individual fields on an object. This is the proper way to restrict a field by profile or permission set.

Sharing rules control record-level access, not field visibility. Filtered views affect list views, not field security. Classic encryption protects sensitive data but is not the correct feature for profile-based field visibility.

===========

The correct answer is A. Add the field to the custom report type field layout.

The report already exists: Position with or without Applicants Report. The issue is not that reporting is disabled for the object; the issue is that the new Applicant field is not available as a column in that custom report type. For custom report types, fields available to report builders are controlled by the custom report type field layout. Salesforce’s documentation for adding fields to a custom report type directs admins to open the report type and use Edit Layout to add the missing fields.

B is incorrect because field-level security can hide a field from a user, but the troubleshooting step for a field missing from a custom report type column list is to add it to the custom report type layout.

C is incorrect because the report type already exists and is being used.

D is incorrect because the field data type was already assigned when the field was created.

===========

The correct answer is C. Record Detail.

The Record Detail component on a Lightning Record Page displays the fields and sections from the object’s assigned page layout. After using Lightning Object Creator to create the object, fields, and data, the app builder must add the Record Detail component if users need to see the fields from the page layout on the Lightning Record Page. Salesforce documentation states that the Record Detail component displays fields and sections from the page layout associated with the object.

Why the other options are incorrect:

Highlights Panel shows key record actions and compact-layout information.

Recommendations displays recommendation records.

Path shows guided stage/status progression, not all page-layout fields.
