Which scenario best fits using VIPs?

• A. When you need to render dynamic UI with real-time user input only on the client.
• B. When you want to bypass server and run everything in the browser.
• C. When you need to access and transform data from third-party sources, with no user interaction and workload moved to the server.
• D. When you are only integrating with Salesforce data with no transformation.

Answer: (C)

VIPs are designed to run on the server to fetch and transform data, especially from external sources, so you can offload heavy work from the browser and present the result in the UI. The scenario described—accessing and transforming data from third-party sources with no user interaction and the workload moved to the server—fits this pattern exactly. It leverages server-side orchestration (like Integration Procedures and DataRaptors) to shape the data before it reaches the client, which is what VIPs are built to handle. This isn’t about client-only rendering with real-time user input, nor about running everything in the browser, and it isn’t limited to Salesforce data without transformation. VIPs center on server-side data access and transformation, including external sources.
