Salesforce Admin Certification Practice Test

What type of records can you import using the Import Wizard?

1. Accounts and Contacts

2. Leads only

3. Custom objects only

4. Solutions only

The correct answer is: Accounts and Contacts

The Import Wizard in Salesforce is designed to facilitate the bulk import of various types of records into your Salesforce environment. Specifically, it allows users to import both Accounts and Contacts simultaneously. This is particularly useful for organizations that are migrating their data into Salesforce or need to add a large number of contacts linked to their accounts efficiently. While the Import Wizard does support the import of leads, custom objects, and solutions, it has specific limits. For instance, Leads can be imported, but only as a separate task and not in the same batch as Accounts and Contacts. Similarly, while custom objects can be imported into Salesforce, this functionality is generally handled by the Data Import Wizard's more advanced version or through other data management tools, rather than the standard Import Wizard. The same applies to solutions, which also have limitations on their import ability. Thus, the correct answer reflects the primary capability of the Import Wizard to import both Accounts and Contacts in one go, making it the most comprehensive choice among the options provided.
