Topic #: 1

[All Certified Platform Developer II Questions]

Sometimes events on Salesforce need to be handled by an external system due to the scale or type of process being executed. Consider the use case of a user in
Salesforce needing to get pricing for an order they are building in Salesforce while on the phone with a customer.
The pricing logic already exists in a third-party system. Instead of recreating this logic in Salesforce, it will be leveraged by making a request of the third-party system. The response, in this case the pricing, will be returned and stored back in Salesforce.
What is the optimal solution?

A. A Visualforce page that can make a real-time Apex callout to display and save the pricing back in Salesforce
B. An Apex trigger that upon saving the Order will make a real-time Apex callout, saving the pricing back in Salesforce
C. A Process Builder process and Outbound Message to fetch the pricing upon save and store the pricing in Salesforce
D. An ETL tool to process batches of newly saved Orders every few minutes to store the pricing back in Salesforce

A is the correct answer. Requirement is real time update as customer is waiting on phone, triggers can't make synchronous calls, ETL is batch (not real-time). Outbound message can't get the result back (usually one way)
