Salesforce Platform App Builder
Practice Exam
The Salesforce Platform App Builder certification is an intermediate Salesforce credential with no prerequisite. It is focused on designing, building, and deploying custom applications with the declarative tools of the Salesforce Platform: data models and relationships, record access and sharing, formulas, roll-ups and validation rules, Flow automation and approvals, Lightning pages, actions and the mobile experience, reports, and the application lifecycle from sandboxes to change sets and packages. The exam has 60 scored questions plus 5 unscored questions, a 105-minute time limit, and a 73% passing score. Its official outline covers 5 weighted sections, the largest being Business Logic and Process Automation at 32% of the exam.
The Platform App Builder exam tests how you build custom apps without code: choosing the data model and relationship types, controlling record and field access, writing formulas, roll-ups and validation rules, picking the right Flow type and Flow approvals, laying out Lightning pages and mobile actions, and moving changes through sandboxes, change sets and packages. Business Logic and Process Automation is the biggest section at 32%, and the 2026 guide raised the passing score to 73%.
