 Personalization. Personalization. Personalization. It’s how media enterprises grow their customers.

However, media companies face the challenge of appealing to broad audiences while also designing solutions that meet the needs of individual customers. That’s where Media Cloud comes in. It helps customers design, launch, and monetize media experiences from anywhere, and deliver frictionless and personalized business-to-consumer (B2C) and business-to-business (B2B) media experiences.

By earning a Media Cloud Accredited Professional (AP) credential, you showcase to customers your expertise in building tailored media experiences at every stage of the customer journey. Are you ready to get credentialed?

First, let’s find out more about the Media Cloud AP exam.

Who is the Media Cloud AP exam built for?


The Media Cloud AP exam is built specifically for partners who are able to plan, design, and implement business value to customers through Media Cloud. The exam is a 60-question, multiple-choice exam that partners have 75 minutes to complete.

The Media Cloud AP is recommended for partners who have knowledge across Salesforce products, including but not limited to:

  • OmniStudio
  • Industries CPQ
  • Industries Order Management
  • Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) and Document Generation
  • Digital Commerce
  • Advertising Sales Management (ASM)
  • And the Salesforce Platform

The Media Cloud AP exam requires a business consulting skillset. These types of partners are able to bridge business needs and technical implementations, oversee and steer requirements-gathering conversations, and support implementation teams through integration best practices and testing scenarios.

What does the Media Cloud AP exam test?


The Media Cloud AP exam has three sections:

  1. Discovery: This first section of the exam focuses on the needs of the customer. Partners will know how to outline the technical scope for a statement of work (SOW) using the core capabilities of Media Cloud. In the creation of the SOW, the partner will consider the customer’s existing third-party systems, encompassing system flows, and various non-functional requirements like capacity, compatibility, scalability, maintainability, and security aspects for the Media Cloud Application.
  2. Design: The exam’s second section covers how to use the customer’s business requirements to determine design flows using Media Cloud ASM capabilities. This is where partners will recommend the appropriate product model definition and pricing methodology using the Media Cloud ASM object model and functionality, permission sets and permission set groups to deploy, the integration points and target systems to interoperate within Media Cloud boundaries, and the right reporting solution and data sources using the set of possible solutions.
  3. Implement: The third section tests partners on how they’d address the development and deployment processes of the Media Cloud solution. This includes a strategy for data migration using the knowledge of the Media Cloud data model, the appropriate Media Cloud integration approach, sharing and security setting in the org, and how to implement non-functional requirements.
