Exam MCE-Dev-201 Topic 3 Question 131 Discussion

Actual exam question for Salesforce's MCE-Dev-201 exam
Question #: 131
Topic #: 3
A developer is querying data from the _Bounce data view and storing it in a data extension. They have found that sometimes the fields SMTPBounceReason and SMTPCode exceed the 4000-character limits for each field as specified in the DE schema. After consulting with the original requestor, it was decided that they could simply store the first 4000 characters for each of those fields.
Which SQL function could be used for this purpose?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

To store only the first 4000 characters of the fields SMTPBounceReason and SMTPCode in a data extension, the developer should use the LEFT (C) SQL function. This function returns the specified number of characters from the beginning of a string.
Example:
SELECT SubscriberKey, LEFT(SMTPBounceReason, 4000) AS SMTPBounceReason, LEFT(SMTPCode,
4000) AS SMTPCode FROM _Bounce
