Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Schedule an hourly Calculated Insight batch job.
Why it's wrong here
Calculated Insights run on batch schedules and lack the immediate event-driven response needed for real-time triggers.
- ✗
Export daily SFTP files to an external email service provider.
Why it's wrong here
SFTP batch exports introduce too much latency for real-time cart abandonment.
- ✓
Configure a streaming Data Action targeting a webhook that triggers a real-time abandoned cart message.
Why this is correct
Real-time abandonment scenarios rely on Data Actions listening to streaming events for immediate action.
- ✗
Create a batch segment with a 24-hour refresh schedule activated to Marketing Cloud.
Why it's wrong here
A 24-hour batch schedule is too slow for a 2-hour cart abandonment window.
