Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Data Cloud automatically sanitizes headers into valid field names, and consultants map them in the mapping canvas.
Why this is correct
Data Cloud normalizes header names during ingestion, and consultants map them during the mapping step.
- ✗
Consultants must manually rename every column in the S3 CSV file before every batch run.
Why it's wrong here
Manual file renaming is unnecessary.
- ✗
Special characters are converted into Apex escape sequences.
Why it's wrong here
Apex is not involved in S3 batch parsing.
- ✗
Ingestion fails immediately if headers contain spaces or special characters.
Why it's wrong here
Data Cloud handles header sanitization without failing ingestion.
