5. Important Topics for Salesforce OmniStudio Developer Certification Exam
5.1 FlexCards: 15% (9 Questions)
- OmniStudio FlexCards display contextual information in an at-a-glance format and provide access to relevant tasks for the displayed data.
- Key capabilities of Flex Cards
- FlexCards summarize Contextual Information at a glance
- FlexCards are the beginning and ending points for customer transactions
- Design FlexCards to ensure they meet customer requirements/needs.
- FlexCards can be view on Any Device or Channel such as Adobe Experience Manager, or inside a custom web container, like Heroku

- Industries Console – helps provide 360 degrees view of the customer
5.2 OmniScripts: 20% (12 Questions)
- Explain the basic structure of an OmniScript.
- Validate developed OmniScript processes to ensure client expectation alignment.
- Identify business process step requirements and map them to OmniScript Components required to implement them.
- OmniScript Element Types
- Actions – Actions elements are used for calling on other tools to perform various actions such as getting or saving data, calculating, sending an email etc.
- Display – Display element is used for displaying text and images on the screen to enhance the usability of the UI
- Functions – Functions elements are used for performing calculations within the OmniScript, showing conditional messages, and providing geolocation
- Group – Group element is used for grouping elements together on the UI
- Inputs – Input elements are used for system or user input or selection
- OmniScripts – OmniScript elements are used for reusing any other OmniScript
- OmniScript Actions – Actions elements are used for calling on other tools to perform various actions such as getting or saving data, calculating, sending an email etc
- Some of the key OmniScript Actions Elements are:
- DataRaptor Extract Action – Get data from one or more Salesforce records
- DataRaptor Post Action – Update the data in one or more Salesforce records
- Integration Procedure Action – Call a series of actions
- API and HTTP Action – Get, save, or delete data through a web application programming interface
- Email Action – Populate and send an email as part of an interaction
- DocuSign Envelope Action and DocuSign Signature Action – Send DocuSign emails for signature or sign DocuSign emails
- Navigate Action – Send the user back to a previous page after the interaction is complete
5.3 Integration Procedures: 17% (10 Questions)
- Integration Procedures – Integration Procedures are a way to retrieve, save, and manipulate data behind the scenes. An Integration Procedure is also recommended when you need fast processing of complex data from multiple sources
- Key capabilities of Integration Procedures:
- Integration Procedures read data from Salesforce, external systems using REST API, and Apex classes.
- Integration Procedures are called from and return data to OmniScripts and OmniStudio FlexCards. They also serve as data sources for APIs and Apex code.
