What are examples of things that the Salesforce platform handles for you automatically when creating

hosting the service, argument and return type value conversions, and even generating the WSDL that

needs to be consumed by the external client application. Thanks Salesforce! ;)

(Workflow Action)

by/from/for a third party external application)


3.) HTTP to invoke external REST services


4.) Email

3.) Upload the WSDL.


4.) The WSDL will be parsed, and if parsing is done successfully without any errors, Apex classes will be

generated for each namespace that appears in the WSDL document. These Apex classes can then be

used to integrate with the SOAP service.


What is an example of a scenario where, when using the "Generate from WSDL" action, the WSDL

parsing may fail? - ANSWER✔✔-If the WSDL contains an unsupported schema type.


How can you convert Apex methods that invoke web services (i.e. those generated from a WSDL) from

synchronous actions to asynchronous actions? - ANSWER✔✔-Annotate the methods with @future. You

can then monitor the callout under Setup > Monitoring > Apex Jobs
