Difficulty: Very hardSelf-Service Portals and Experience Cloud for Support

CloudKicks uses an Experience Cloud site to provide self-service support to external customers who hold standard Customer Community licenses. The support team requires that external users be able to view and update all Cases submitted by any contact affiliated with their parent Account. Because standard Customer Community license holders cannot be assigned roles or benefit from standard criteria-based sharing rules, which configuration mechanism must the administrator implement to grant case access across the account?

  1. Configure a Sharing Set mapping the User's Contact Account to the Case Account object for the Customer Community user profile.Answer
  2. B
    Set the Case External Org-Wide Default to Public Read/Write and enable Grant Access Using Hierarchies on the Case sharing settings.
  3. C
    Create a custom Profile for external users and enable the View All permission on the Case object.
  4. D
    Create a Criteria-Based Sharing Rule that shares cases where Case Account equals the user's Account with the portal user group.

Answer

Configure a Sharing Set mapping the User's Contact Account to the Case Account object for the Customer Community user profile.
Sharing Sets are specifically designed for high-volume Experience Cloud user licenses (Customer Community) that do not support roles. By configuring a Sharing Set, the administrator maps the user's Contact Account field to the Account lookup on the Case object, granting users access to all cases created within their account.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze license capabilities and constraints
Identify that Customer Community licenses are high-volume portal licenses that do not utilize Salesforce roles or standard owner-based/criteria-based sharing rules.
High-volume portal user licenses require specialized sharing mechanisms to maintain low overhead and high performance.
2
Evaluate record sharing requirements
Determine that external users need access to Case records related to their parent Account.
The business requirement demands cross-contact visibility within the same account boundary.
3
Select the appropriate Experience Cloud sharing feature
Implement a Sharing Set mapping User:Contact.Account to Case:Account.
Sharing Sets grant high-volume community users record access based on common account or contact relationships defined in their user profile.
