Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Use a UI Policy to show/hide the section based on the field value.
Why this is correct
UI Policies are the standard way to control visibility of fields/sections declaratively.
- ✗
Use a client script to hide the section when the field changes.
Why it's wrong here
Client scripts are less maintainable and can cause performance issues.
- ✗
Use an ACL to restrict access to the section.
Why it's wrong here
ACLs control data access, not UI visibility.
- ✗
Use a catalog client script to set the visibility.
Why it's wrong here
Catalog client scripts are for validation, not visibility control.
