What should be specified in the jobInfo when creating a Job?

When creating a job in the context of Salesforce integrations, it is critical to specify the operation and object type in the jobInfo. This defines what the job is intended to do, such as whether it is meant to insert, update, upsert, delete, or query data, and which specific Salesforce object the operation targets (for example, Account, Contact, Lead, etc.). This information is essential for the Salesforce platform to understand the nature of the job and to process it correctly according to the specified actions and data structure.

The operation indicates whether data is being added, modified, or removed, while the object type ensures that the data being processed aligns with the schema used within Salesforce. Without accurately defining these parameters, the integration could fail or produce unexpected results since the platform would not know how to handle the job.

In contrast, the other options, while relevant to various aspects of integration and data handling, do not directly pertain to the foundational job creation requirements as specified in the JobInfo. Database location, user credentials, and profile settings may play a role in managing access and configurations but are not part of defining the job's purpose and operational context within the integration process.
