Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, B

A flow with a screen can be distributed in Salesforce by embedding it in Lightning Pages using the Lightning App Builder, which allows for the integration of the flow on Home, Record, App, and other custom pages. Additionally, flows can be added to the Utility Bar of Lightning Apps, providing users with easy access to the flow from the utility bar at the bottom of the Salesforce interface.

I vaguely recall a practice question where we had to decide if waiting until the end to make database changes was a good idea. I think it’s better to update as you go.

Deleting a draft version of the flow after running the real one? That's an interesting approach, I'll have to think about whether that makes sense for my flow. The other tips seem solid though.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is to identify when desktop recording is the most appropriate automation approach based on the number of steps and the type of application being automated.

B and D are definitely the way to go. Planning out the flow is crucial, and an error handler is a must-have. I'd skip the other options - they sound like a recipe for disaster!
