Extract Attachments with Data Loader | Salesforce Certified Advanced Administrator

B.

Explanation/Reference: The data loader can only be used to delete documents, not extract or export.

The Data Loader is a tool provided by Salesforce that allows administrators to insert, update, delete, and export records in bulk. It is used to perform various data management tasks, such as importing data from external systems or backing up data for disaster recovery.

Regarding the question, the answer is A. True, you can use the Data Loader to extract attachments from Salesforce records.

When extracting attachments with Data Loader, you need to perform the following steps:

1. Log in to Data Loader with your Salesforce credentials.
2. Select the "Extract" operation from the main menu.
3. Choose the Salesforce object that contains the attachments you want to extract (e.g., Case, Account, Contact).
4. In the "Mapping" screen, map the fields you want to extract, including the Attachment ID field.
5. In the "Settings" screen, specify the destination file path for the extracted attachments.
6. Click "Finish" to start the extraction process.

The extracted attachments will be saved to the specified file path in their original format.

It's worth noting that the Data Loader can only extract attachments that are associated with Salesforce records. If you want to extract all attachments in your organization, regardless of their association with records, you will need to use a third-party tool or write a custom script.
