Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Field data types and primary key designations.

    Why this is correct

    Defining field types and primary keys ensures accurate schema creation in the DSO.

  • Tableau workbook connection strings.

    Why it's wrong here

    Tableau strings are unrelated to ingestion schemas.

  • Apex class definitions for data transformation.

    Why it's wrong here

    Apex is not supported in batch data stream schemas.

  • File format and delimiter specifications (e.g., CSV, comma or pipe delimited).

    Why this is correct

    File formatting details are required to parse flat files correctly.

  • Marketing Cloud Journey Builder canvas IDs.

    Why it's wrong here

    Journey IDs are irrelevant to S3 batch streams.
