DML Operation used for inserting a record----> The following example shows the creating a contact through API using DML operation (Insert)
Contact C= new contact();C.last name='Anil';
C.Account id='XXX'
Override any account id here
//This means assigning account to a contact
Insert C;Systerm.debug(C)
Note:- For custom Objects;
Customer_c C=new customer_c();C.Name='Anil';
C.partner_c='xxxx';
API Name of lookup filed or MD field
Insert c;
Customer__c is child object and partner__c is parent object
Note: while inserting the object records the following notes
- Certain SObjects cannot be created to insert an object record because the ”create” permission of the object must be set to true
- We must supply a non-null value for all required fields
- The “insert” statement automatically sets the ID value of all new subjects records
- We can pass a maximum of 10,000 SObject records by using a single insert method.
