Developers CRT-450 Salesforce Study Notes

Apex Trigger (Option B):

An Apex trigger can be written on theContainer__cobject to prevent deletion unless theStatus__cfield value is "Decommissioned".

This allows custom logic to be executed during the deletion process.

Apex Triggers Documentation

Validation Rule (Option D):

A validation rule is typically used to enforce conditions during record creation or update. However, it cannot directly restrict deletions.

To ensure deletion restriction, an Apex trigger is more effective.

Not Suitable:

Option A(Before record-triggered flow): Flows triggered "before delete" are not available.

Option C(After record-triggered flow): These occur after a record is deleted, so they cannot prevent the deletion process.

Why a Trigger on the Child Object?

Since the relationship is not master-detail, a trigger on the child object can perform aggregate calculations and update the parent Opportunity.

Why Not Other Options?

A: Tree sorting is unnecessary and unrelated to roll-up summaries.

B and D: Neither Streaming API nor Metadata API is suitable for real-time roll-up calculations.

Before-save Apex Trigger:

This is the best solution because abefore-save triggerruns before the record is saved to the database, providing an opportunity to validate or modify the data.

In this case, the Apex trigger can validate the email address using a regular expression or a third-party API call to ensure the email address is valid. If the email is invalid, an error message can be displayed using addError().

Why not the other options?

A. Submit a REST API Callout with a JSON payload:

REST callouts are more complex and generally not recommended for simple validation tasks like email format validation. Additionally, callouts cannot be performed directly in a before-save trigger.

C. Use a custom Lightning Web Component (LWC):

LWCs are primarily for UI interactions and should not be used to enforce data validations that are server-side requirements.

D. Use an Approval Process:

Approval Processes are for managing the approval flow of records, not for real-time validations. They cannot enforce email validation directly.

 Why Queueable?

Queueable Apex allows asynchronous processing, which can handle bulk updates efficiently without hitting governor limits.

The trigger enqueues the Queueable class to process the asset updates.

 Avoiding Limit Failures:

Moving logic to a Queueable class offloads resource-intensive operations to asynchronous processing.
