This standard has the several steps involved with the SAML Bearer Assertion Flow.

Which two steps should you perform? (Choose two.)

24. You need to write an expression to retrieve a list of all account managers who don't currently have an active customer account.

Which code snippet should you use?

A)

B)

C)

25. You need to create a read-only grid that displays support case information. Data for the support cases is mapped to the "Case" record type with data sync enabled.

Within the record, there are fields named "createdDateTime" and "resolvedDateTime". These two fields store the timestamps for when a case is created and resolved, respectively.

The grid includes a column indicating the number of hours between when the case was created and when it was resolved. This column must be sortable within the grid.

How should you calculate the hour value that will display in the column?

26. What should you use to create a predefined query in a database for ease of use?
