The Salesforce MuleSoft Developer certification, formerly Salesforce Certified MuleSoft Developer I, is an intermediate Salesforce credential with no prerequisite. It is focused on building basic Mule 4 APIs and integrations with Anypoint Platform: application networks and API-led connectivity, designing APIs in RAML, accessing and modifying Mule events, structuring Mule applications, APIkit implementation interfaces, connectors, batch and record processing, DataWeave transformations, routing, error handling, debugging, and deploying and managing APIs with CloudHub and API Manager. The exam has 60 scored questions plus 5 unscored questions, a 120-minute time limit, and a 70% passing score. Its official outline covers 12 weighted sections, the largest being Accessing and Modifying Mule Events at 10% of the exam.

The MuleSoft Developer exam tests whether you can design, build, test, debug, deploy and manage basic Mule 4 APIs and integrations: RAML design and APIkit, the Mule event, flows and subflows, connectors, batch processing, DataWeave, routers, error handling, debugging, and deploying to CloudHub with API Manager. It is a 120-minute exam with a 70% passing score.
