SNOW-CAD Platform Features and Integration Practice Question

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
✓
Configure the action to log error details to a local log table.
Correct: A and B. Option A is valid because Flow Designer allows logging error details to a local log table for troubleshooting. Option B is valid because you can use an 'if' condition to check the HTTP status code and branch to handle errors accordingly. Option C is incorrect because returning an error code as a flow variable does not handle the error; it only passes the value. Option D is incorrect because sending an email notification is a separate action, not an error handling action within the integration step. Option E is incorrect because automatic retry requires explicit configuration; it is not enabled by default.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Configure the action to log error details to a local log table.
Why this is correct
Logging errors to a table is a common pattern.
- ✓
Use an 'if' condition to check the HTTP status and branch accordingly.
Why this is correct
Checking status code allows conditional error handling.
- ✗
Return a specific error code as a flow variable.
Why it's wrong here
Error handling is done via error blocks, not return variables directly.
- ✗
Send an email notification to the system administrator using a notification action.
Why it's wrong here
While possible via a separate notification step, the action itself does not send email; you would add a subsequent action.
- ✗
Set the action to automatically retry on failure without configuration.
Why it's wrong here
Retry must be explicitly configured; there is no automatic retry.
