This link was very helpful to answer those kind of questions.ġ. I don’t remember the exact questions, but a good example of a question would be asking which is the most adequate solution you can implement in Salesforce for your customer, taking into account some specific constraints and some specific final actions. In contrast, the questions I was asked in Platform App Builder exam were mostly case studies simulating real situations which a Salesforce App Builder will have to deal with in his daily work. In those exams, there were some questions about limits, about the specific path you have to follow in the setup menu for doing something, etc., which in my opinion didn’t add value at all to your proficiency on the platform, and only demonstrated you had a very good memory. Well, my overall impression is that this new exam is much more logical than Dev 401 mock exams I had seen on the internet. Here you can see a schema of the relationship between old and new certifications, (image from Andrew Davis, Appirio). Since this is a brand new certification and some people have asked me for advice, I wanted to create this post explaining my impressions about this new exam. I want to point out that the exam I did is Platform App Builder specific one, not the transition exam, as I didn’t own Dev 401 certification.Īs you probably know, this new certification is an evolution of Dev 401 (Platform Developer I) certification. I have recently passed the Platform App Builder certification exam.
