Actual exam question for Salesforce's Data-Cloud-Consultant exam
Question #: 6
Topic #: 3
A retailer wants to unify profiles using Loyalty ID which is different than the unique ID of their customers.
Which object should the consultant use in identity resolution to perform exact match rules on the Loyalty ID?

Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer

Explanation
The Party Identification object is the correct object to use in identity resolution to perform exact match rules on the Loyalty ID. The Party Identification object is a child object of the Individual object that stores different types of identifiers for an individual, such as email, phone, loyalty ID, social media handle, etc. Each identifier has a type, a value, and a source. The consultant can use the Party Identification object to create a match rule that compares the Loyalty ID type and value across different sources and links the corresponding individuals.
The other options are not correct objects to use in identity resolution to perform exact match rules on the Loyalty ID. The Loyalty Identification object does not exist in Data Cloud. The Individual object is the parent object that represents a unified profile of an individual, but it does not store the Loyalty ID directly. The Contact Identification objectis a child object of the Contact object that stores identifiers for a contact, such as email, phone, etc., but it does not store the Loyalty ID.
