FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

What is Database insert in Apex?

Insert – Using Database. Insert method you can specify whether you wanted to abort the complete records when there is an error in any records or commit the success record and show a list of failed records. It also provides the Rollback functionality.

The Database methods return result objects containing success or failure information for each record. For example, insert and update operations each return an array of Database. SaveResult objects.
