Cumulus Financial needs to create a composite key on an incoming data source that combines the fields Customer Region and Customer Identifier.

Which formula function should a consultant use to create a composite key when a primary key is not available in a data stream?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Composite Keys in Data Streams: When working with data streams in Salesforce Data Cloud, there may be situations where a primary key is not available. In such cases, creating a composite key from multiple fields ensures unique identification of records.

Formula Functions: Salesforce provides several formula functions to manipulate and combine data fields. Among them, the CONCAT function is used to combine multiple strings into one.

Creating Composite Keys: To create a composite key using CONCAT, a consultant can combine the values of Customer Region and Customer Identifier into a single unique identifier.

Example Formula: CONCAT(Customer_Region, Customer_Identifier)

Honestly, if I had a nickel for every time I've seen CONCAT on an exam, I'd be a rich consultant by now. Easy peasy.

CAST? What is this, a magic show? CONCAT is the way to create that composite key, no doubt about it.

Hmm, COALE? Really? That's not even a real function as far as I know. CONCAT is the obvious answer.
