I vaguely recall something about needing to edit the fields directly in Salesforce, but I can't remember if that's the first step or if there's something else we should do first.

I'm leaning towards creating a data filter that includes the new fields, but I feel like I need to double-check the process for syncing first.

I remember a practice question where we had to create a new data extension for custom fields, so that might be the answer here too.

I think the first step might be to edit the fields in the synchronized data source, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the right approach.

I think the key here is that the customer is using the Salesforce Contact object as a synchronized data source. So the first step would be to edit the fields in that synchronized data source to make the new custom fields available. That seems like the logical first step before doing anything else.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I'm not sure if editing the fields in the data source is the right first step, or if we need to create a new data extension or a data filter first. I'll have to review the question and options carefully.

Okay, let's see here. I'm pretty sure the answer is to edit the fields in the synchronized data source, since that's where the new custom fields are coming from. That should make them available for segmentation.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'm trying to remember where I've seen that information before. Let me think... I think it might be in PVWA > Policies > Access Control (Safes) > Safe Members > Workflow > Authorize Password Requests, but I'm not 100% sure.

This looks like a straightforward SQL query to find the subs who were sent the TEST emails. I think option C is the correct answer.
