In Flow Builder, to assign a value (such as a Contact ID) to a field in a record variable, the Assignment element is used. It allows flow designers to modify the contents of variables, including record variables and individual fields within them.
C. Correct — The Assignment element sets values within variables, including record-type variables such as setting contactId = {!record.ContactId}.
Incorrect Options:
A. Decision is used for conditional branching, not for setting values.
B. “Branching Element” is not a Salesforce Flow term.
D. Create Records is used to insert records into the database, not to assign field values in variables.
Reference Extracts from Salesforce Process Automation Study Guide:
“Use Assignment elements to assign values to variables and record fields in your flow.”
“You can assign values to one or more fields on a record variable using a single Assignment element.”
