SALESFORCE-PD1 Developer Fundamentals Practice Question
A developer is implementing a custom logging framework in Apex. Due to high transaction volumes, multiple asynchronous log entries need to be queued without hitting the maximum number of queueable jobs allowed in a single transaction. What is the execution limit for chained Queueable jobs?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Only one child job can be chained from a given Queueable job in a non-test context.
Queueable Apex supports chaining jobs, but synchronous transactions have strict limits on how many times a job can be chained consecutively.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Only one child job can be chained from a given Queueable job in a non-test context.
Why this is correct
Salesforce limits Queueable chaining such that you can only enqueue one subsequent job from executing context.
- ✗
Queueable jobs cannot be chained under any circumstances.
Why it's wrong here
Queueable jobs explicitly support job chaining via System.enqueueJob.
- ✗
Up to 50 child jobs can be chained in a single transaction.
Why it's wrong here
Chaining up to 50 jobs is not permitted; the limit is restricted to a single chain link in production.
- ✗
There is no limit to the number of chained queueable jobs.
Why it's wrong here
Governor limits strictly regulate asynchronous job chaining to prevent infinite loops and resource hogging.
