Correct answer: Set the OmniStudio FlexCard component's Exposed Attribute in the Lightning App Builder to pass data from the parent record.

By passing data from the parent record (e.g., via a standard FlexCard component attribute in the Lightning App Builder or Experience Builder), the data is loaded with the page layout rather than waiting for the FlexCard component to initialize its own data source call. This improves perceived performance.

Correct answer: Fire a Custom Event named 'reload' from the child card that bubbles up to the parent.

A Custom Event is designed specifically for communication between a child FlexCard and its parent. It bubbles up the hierarchy. A PubSub event is broader (component to component anywhere on the page), but for direct Child-to-Parent communication where the parent just needs to reload, the Custom Event is the standard pattern.

Correct answer: {recordId}

In FlexCards, the `{recordId}` context variable automatically captures the ID of the record page on which the FlexCard is placed. This is distinct from OmniScript which typically uses `%ContextId%`.

Correct answer: Flyout Action

A Flyout Action allows you to display a child FlexCard, OmniScript, or LWC in a modal or popover window. This enables showing detailed information on demand without leaving the current context.

Correct answer: True

FlexCards evaluate States from top to bottom. The first State whose conditions evaluate to true is the one that is rendered for that specific record. Multiple states cannot be active simultaneously for a single record instance.

Correct answer: REST

The REST data source in FlexCards allows for direct client-side calls to external REST APIs. For a public API requiring no complex authentication or server-side processing, this is the most direct method.
