Salesforce Exam Platform Developer II Topic 1 Question 109 Discussion

Actual exam question for Salesforce's Platform Developer II exam
Question #: 109
Topic #: 1
[All Platform Developer II Questions]

A developer wrote an Apex class to make several callouts to an external system.

If the URLs used in these callouts will change often, which feature should the developer use to minimize changes needed to the Apex class?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The correct feature to use is C, Named Credentials. Named Credentials are a secure way of storing the endpoint and authentication details for callouts to external services. When URLs change frequently, using Named Credentials allows you to manage the endpoint URL in one place without changing the Apex code.

This question reminds me of that time I accidentally hardcoded a URL and had to update it in 100 places when it changed. Lesson learned - use Named Credentials!

Hmm, I was thinking D) Remote Site Settings, but C) Named Credentials makes more sense. It's like having a little black book for all your callout URLs.

C) Named Credentials sounds like the way to go. That way, the URLs can be managed separately without modifying the Apex class.
