Certified Integration Architect v1.0 (Certified Integration Architect)

An integration architect has been tasked with integrating Salesforce with an on-premise system. Due to some established policies, this system must remain on-premise.

What should the architect use to build a solution for this requirement?

The URI for an external service has been changed without prior notice. The service provides up-to-date money exchange rates that are accessed several times from Salesforce and is a business critical function for end users.

Which two solutions should an integration architect recommend be implemented to minimize potential downtime for users in this situation? (Choose two.)

An integration architect has built a Salesforce application that integrates multiple systems and keeps them synchronized via Platform Events.

What is taking place if events are only being published?

When a user clicks “Check Preferences” as part of a Lightning flow in Salesforce, preferences from an externally hosted RESTful service are to be checked in real time. The RESTful service has OpenAPI 2.0 JSON definitions, responding in Boolean and string values data types.

Which integration pattern and mechanism should be selected to meet the conditions?

Northern Trail Outfitters (NTO) has an integration set up between a Salesforce org and a quoting system. NTO would like to show a notification to all sales representatives that use Salesforce anytime the quoting system will be taken down for maintenance.

Which Salesforce API should an integration architect use to fulfill this requirement?

A company’s security assessment noted vulnerabilities on the unmanaged packages in its Salesforce orgs, notably secrets that are easily accessible and in plain text, such as usernames, passwords, and OAuth tokens used in callouts from Salesforce.

Which two persistence mechanisms should an integration architect require to be used to ensure that secrets are protected from deliberate or inadvertent exposure. (Choose two.)

Universal Containers (UC) is a global financial company that sells financial products and services. There is a daily scheduled Batch Apex job that generates invoices from a given set of orders.

UC requested building a resilient integration for this Batch Apex job in case the invoice generation fails.

What should an integration architect recommend to fulfill the requirement?

A large enterprise customer operating in a highly regulated industry is planning to implement Salesforce for customer-facing associates in both sales and service, as well as back-office staff. The business processes that Salesforce supports are critical to the business.

Salesforce will be integrated into multiple back-office systems to provide a single interface for associates. Reliability and monitoring of these integrations is required as associates support customers.

Which integration solution should the architect consider when planning the implementation?

A customer is migrating from an old legacy system to Salesforce. As part of the modernization effort, they would like to integrate all existing systems that currently work with their legacy application with Salesforce.

Which three constraints and pain-points should an integration architect consider when choosing the integration pattern/mechanism? (Choose three.)

An architect is required to integrate with an External Data Source via a Named Credential with an Apex callout due to technical constraints.

How is authentication achieved?

Universal Containers (UC) is a global financial company. UC support agents would like to open bank accounts on the spot for customers who inquire about UC products.

During the bank account opening process, the agents execute credit checks for the customers through external agencies. At any given time, up to 30 concurrent reps will be using the service to perform credit checks for customers.

What error handling mechanisms should be built to display an error to the agent when the credit verification process failed?

Northern Trail Outfitters (NTO) has hired an integration architect to design the integrations between existing systems and a new instance of Salesforce. NTO has the following requirements:
1. Initial load of 2M Accounts, 5.5 million Contacts, 4.3 million Opportunities, and 45,000 Products into the new org.
2. Notification of new and updated Accounts and Contacts needs to be sent to three external systems.
3. Expose custom business logic to five external applications in a highly secure manner.
4. Schedule nightly automated dataflows, recipes and data syncs.

Which set of APIs are recommended in order to meet the requirements?

The Sales Operations team at Northern Trail Outfitters imports new leads each day. An integrated legacy territory management system assigns territories to leads before Sales team members can work on them. The current integration often experiences latency issues.

Which two recommendations should an architect make to improve the integration performance? (Choose two.)

An integration architect has built a solution using REST API, updating Account, Contact, and other related information. The data volumes have increased, resulting in higher API calls consumed, and some days the limits are exceeded. A decision was made to decrease the number of API calls using bulk updates. The customer prefers to continue using REST API to avoid architecture changes.

Which REST API composite recourses should the integration architect use to allow up to 200 records in one API call?

Northern Trail Outfitters has recently implemented middleware for orchestration of services across platforms. The Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system being used requires transactions be captured near real time at a REST endpoint initiated in Salesforce when creating an order object. Additionally, the Salesforce team has limited development resources and requires a low code solution.

Which two options will fulfill the use case requirement? (Choose two.)
