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 Model mapping has not yet been completed for the Data Source Object.
Why this is correct
Data Model mapping explicitly connects the fields of the underlying Data Source Object (DSO) to the Data Model Objects (DMO).
- ✗
Calculated Insights must be created first to expose fields.
Why it's wrong here
Calculated Insights are not required for standard data mapping.
- ✗
The Data Stream needs to be paused and resumed to refresh metadata cache.
Why it's wrong here
Pausing a stream does not resolve unmapped schema metadata.
- ✗
The streaming platform requires manual schema publication via API.
Why it's wrong here
Salesforce manages schema publication natively through the UI mapping interface.
