To create a new Salesforce record with a DataRaptor Load, what should you do regarding the upsert key?

• A. Do not set an upsert key and ensure all required fields
• B. Always set an upsert key
• C. Only required fields are needed
• D. Omit required fields

Answer: (A)

The upsert key in DataRaptor Load decides whether the operation will update an existing record or create a new one. For a true new record, do not set an upsert key. Leaving it blank makes Salesforce perform a create rather than trying to locate a matching record to update. At the same time, you must provide all fields that Salesforce requires for that object so the create can succeed. In short, omit the upsert key and map all required fields; this ensures a fresh record is created rather than an update.
