Ursa Major Solar would like to use three Record Detail components on a page to display object details for the Account, Case, and Opportunity objects for the user who is logged in to the company’s portal. When they drop the components on the page, they are not getting the desired results.
What is causing this issue?
The Record Detail component populates the recordID associated with the object for the page template, so this component will not work for this use case. This is because each Record Detail component is designed to display details for a specific record based on the record ID associated with the page. When trying to use multiple Record Detail components for different objects (Account, Case, and Opportunity) on a single page, the component cannot dynamically populate different record IDs for different objects. Therefore, the issue arises from the inability of the Record Detail component to handle multiple object details simultaneously on a single page.
The record detail component can indeed only show the details of the object that the page you are building is connected to. You can therefore not show Case, Account and Opportunities (which are three different objects) details on one single page. Answer A is correct imo.
The Record Detail component typically displays details for a single record based on the record ID specified in the component properties. However, if you want to display details for multiple records dynamically based on the user who is logged in, you would need to use a different approach, such as custom Lightning components or Visualforce pages that query and display the required record details based on the user's context.
Agree with SC22MarkTopics. recordId only passes in a single record Id, which means only one of the three record detail components could render as expected when presented all on the same page. If they were presented separately, there would be no issue.
