Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Review the Data Stream run history and error logs in the Data Cloud UI.
Why this is correct
Run history and error logs provide granular details on why ingestion failed.
- ✗
Restart the Kafka message broker cluster via the Data Cloud setup menu.
Why it's wrong here
Underlying message brokers are managed by Salesforce and not restartable by users.
- ✗
Rebuild the Identity Resolution ruleset associated with the data stream.
Why it's wrong here
Identity resolution is downstream of ingestion and does not fix storage ingestion errors.
- ✓
Inspect the source files in the storage bucket for schema and delimiter conformity.
Why this is correct
Mismatched delimiters or schema changes in source files are common causes of batch ingestion failure.
- ✗
Check the Apex Debug Logs in Salesforce Setup.
Why it's wrong here
Data Cloud ingestion runs on platform infrastructure outside of standard Salesforce CRM Apex logs.
