Quick Start - Apex Coding for Admins

Hello Team,

While doing the trailhead for Quick Start - Apex Coding for Admins - Create a Trigger, while I am creating the candidate Nina Simone, and update the ZIP Code field as "20008", system gives me an error message stating as - Candidate Zip Code does not exist in specified State.

Kindly advise where I am going incorrect.

Thanks

It seems like you have triggers from other trailheads that are active, most probably you are working off the same playground for multiple trailheads which is basically overlapping over the functional implementation and making this simple trailhead difficult to pass. Can you please disable all Contact triggers as I don't think you need any for this trailhead.

Looks like you dnt have any values in the Zip_Code__c  object .. create a  new record record in the Zip_Code__c  for 20008 and try

Thanks Raj, however I am not able to create a record as ZIP/Postal Code is a Standard Object and not a Custom Object, please assist, thanks

Hi Vinay,

Can you please verify how many triggers, workflow, validation Rule, process builder etc. for Candiate Object you have. I dont' think the error you are getting is part of any implementation you have done for this Trailhead.

Can you please also check in Org for the text Candidate Zip Code does not exist in specified State.

Please share your code.

Can you also make sure all the triggers related to the object are deactivated, in case if there are?

Hi Abdul

Please find the trigger on candidate object

trigger CreateContact on Candidate__c (after insert){
    //Instantiate an object called cc from the class CreateContactFromCan
    CreateContactFromCan cc = new CreateContactFromCan();
    //Invoke the method createContact and send a List of Candidates as an input parameter
    cc.createContact(Trigger.new);
}

validation rule

VLOOKUP($ObjectType.Zip_Code__c.Fields.State__c, $ObjectType.Zip_Code__c.Fields.Name, LEFT( Zip_Postal_Code__c ,5) ) <> State_Province__c

Please assist, what am I doing incorrect

Thanks

What is this validation rule is for? I don't think it is part of the trailhead module? Can you make it inactive?

Man you are just creating this new record. Seems like you have something like trigger, workflow etc. that is basically is resulting this issue.

Do you have any trigger for Contact Object? Can you deactivate any trigger related to Contact SObject? Please share the screenshot of triggers list?

Hi Abdul,

I had the following trigger on contact standard object which I have now removed

1. Example Trigger on contact
trigger ExampleTrigger on Contact (after insert, after delete) {
    if (Trigger.isInsert) {
        Integer recordCount = Trigger.New.size();
        // Call a utility method from another class
        EmailManager.sendMail('vinaykumarsalve@gmail.com', 'Trailhead Trigger Tutorial', 
                    recordCount + ' contact(s) were inserted.');
    }
    else if (Trigger.isDelete) {
        // Process after delete
    }
}


2. RestrictContactByName

trigger RestrictContactByName on Contact (before insert, before update) {
  
  //check contacts prior to insert or update for invalid data
  For (Contact c : Trigger.New) {
    if(c.LastName == 'INVALIDNAME') {  //invalidname is invalid
      c.AddError('The Last Name "'+c.LastName+'" is not allowed for DML');
    }
  }

Hi Abdul,

Even after removing the above mentioned trigger from contact, I still get the following error

CreateContact: execution of AfterInsert caused by: System.QueryException: List has more than 1 row for assignment to SObject Class.CreateContactFromCan.createContact: line 5, column 1 Trigger.CreateContact: line 5, column 1

Please assist, thanks

Even im Facing the same problem can anyone please help me?

Please share the code for providing the solution.

Seems like your SOQL is returning multiple results for the filtere which is causing issue while you were doing any assignments based on that.
