Trailhead Challenge Question Writing SOQL Queries Unit
I am working on a Trailhead Challenge and receive this error when I execute.
Create an Apex class that returns contacts based on incoming parameters.
For this challenge, you will need to create a class that has a method accepting two strings. The method searches for contacts that have a last name matching the first string and a mailing postal code (API name: MailingPostalCode) matching the second. It gets the ID and Name of those contacts and returns them.The Apex class must be called 'ContactSearch' and be in the public scope.
The Apex class must have a public static method called 'searchForContacts'.
The 'searchForContacts' method must accept two incoming strings as parameters, find any contact that has a last name matching the first, and mailing postal code matching the second string. The method should return a list of Contact records with at least the ID and Name fields.
The return type for 'searchForContacts' must be 'List<Contact>'.
Here's my code:
Can someone assist me? Please.
Thank you,

In dev console click File - New Apex Class and write there your code.
public class ContactSearch {
public static List<Contact> searchForContacts (string lastname , string Postalcode){
List<Contact> Contacts = [Select ID,Name from Contact where LastName = :lastname AND MailingPostalCode = :Postalcode ];
return Contacts;
}
}
//its dont execute on developer console becose of static keyword try to remove static and run on developer console
public static List<Contact> searchForContacts(String lastName, String mailingPostalCode) {
List<Contact> conList = [SELECT Id, Name, LastName, MailingPostalCode
FROM Contact
WHERE LastName = :lastName AND MailingPostalCode = :mailingPostalCode];
return conList;
}
}
I am getting below error
" Executing the 'searchForContacts' method failed. Either the method does not exist, is not static, or does not return the expected contacts."
Below is my code
#############################
public class ContactSearch {
public static List<Contact> searchForContacts (String lastname, String Postalcode)
{
List<Contact> Contacts = [Select ID, Name from Contact where firstname = :lastname AND MailingPostalCode = :Postalcode];
return Contacts;
}
}
Can you please help me
public class ContactSearch
{
public static List<Contact> searchForContacts(String Str1, String Str2)
{
List<Contact> ContactList = [select ID,Name from Contact where LastName = :Str1 and MailingPostalCode = :Str2];
return ContactList;
}
}
public class ContactSearch {
Public static List<Contact> searchForContacts (String Lname,String Fname )
{
List <Contact> con = [SELECT Id,Name FROM Contact where Lastname=:Lname and MailingPostalCode=:Fname];
System.debug(con);
return con;
}
}
"duplicate value found: <unknown> duplicates value on record with id: <unknown>" .you can simply update in the existing class
public class ContactSearch
{
public static list<contact> searchForContacts(string a,string b)
{
list<contact> cntct=[select name,id from contact where lastname=:a and MailingPostalCode=:b];
return cntct;
}
}
I used following code in the ContactSearch Apex class :
public class ContactSearch { public static List<contact> searchForContacts (String firstName, String zipCode) { List<Contact> contacts = [select ID, name from Contact where firstname =:firstName and MailingPostalCode =:zipCode]; return contacts; } }I tested this set of code with following code in anonymous window :
Contact[] conts = ContactSearch.searchForContacts('Jack', '27215'); System.debug(conts.size()); for(Contact cont : conts){ system.debug('cont ' + cont.name); }The debug statements work fine in the logs. They get 1 record back and print the name Jack Rogers. But the Trailhead gives following error :
Challenge not yet complete in My Trailhead Playground 1
Executing the 'searchForContacts' method failed. Either the method does not exist, is not static, or does not return the expected contacts.
"My Trailhead Playground 1" is the only trailhead playground we have. Thoughts??
Please use LastName instead of FirstName in the query as the criteria mentioned in the assignment is for matching LastName.
This worked fine,
public class ContactSearch
{
public static List<Contact> searchForContacts(String LName, String MPcode)
{
List <Contact> cts =[SELECT Id, Name from Contact
where LastName=:LName and MailingPostalCode =:MPcode];
return cts;
}
}

pease help me out
1. launch > developer console
public class ContactSearch {
public static List<Contact> searchForContacts (String lname, String postalCode){
List<Contact> contacts = [SELECT LastName FROM Contact where lastName = :lname AND
MailingPostalCode = :postalCode] ;
return contacts;
}
}
2. debug > open execute annonymous window
ContactSearch.searchForContacts('your string lastname', 'your postalcode');
public class ContactSearch {
public static List <Contact> searchForContacts (string lastname, string postalcode)
{
List <Contact> Con = [SELECT Name,AccountId FROM Contact WHERE Last_Name__c=: lastname AND MailingPostalCode=: postalcode ];
system.debug(Con);
return Con;
}
}
And I get the error:
Executing the 'searchForContacts' method failed. Either the method does not exist, is not static, or does not return the expected contacts.
I am trying to complete the below trailhead challenge
===========================================================================================
Challenge of Trail head
Create an Apex class with a method that returns an array (or list) of strings.
Create an Apex class with a method that returns an array (or list) of formatted strings ('Test 0', 'Test 1', ...). The length of the array is determined by an integer parameter.
The Apex class must be called StringArrayTest and be in the public scope
The Apex class must have a public static method called generateStringArray
The generateStringArray method must return an array (or list) of strings
The method must accept an incoming Integer as a parameter, which will be used to determine the number of returned strings
The method must return a string value in the format Test n where n is the index of the current string in the array
=============================================================================================
Below is the code
public class StringArrayTest {
public static List<string> generateStringArray(Integer length)
{
List<string> mydata = new List<String>();
for (Integer i=0;i<length;i++)
{
mydata.add('Test' + i);
}
system.debug(mydata);
return mydata;
}
}
=============================================================================================
Below is the result
18:10:45:012 USER_DEBUG [10]|DEBUG|(Test0, Test1, Test2, Test3)
=============================================================================================
but the issue is while completing my challenge trailhead is giving the error which is ....
''Executing the 'generateStringArray' method failed. Either the method does not exist, is not static, or does not return the proper number of strings.''
public class ContactSearch { public static Contact[] searchForContacts(String lname, String pCode){ return [select ID, Name from Contact where LastName=:lname AND MailingPostalCode=:pCode]; } }Regards,

otherwise, the codes written above are absolutely correct and working fine..it just did for me !
There was an unexpected error in your org which is preventing this assessment check from completing: System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING, Required fields are missing: [Loan_Amount__c]: [Loan_Amount__c]
{

where (Lastname =:lname and MailingPostalCode =:pcode)];
Contact cntlist = cnt[0];
String AccntId=cntlist.Account.Id;
String AccntName=cntlist.Account.Name;

return cnt;

public class ContactSearch {

return con;
}
}
public static List<Contact> searchForContacts(String FirstName,String ID){
List<Contact> conList = [SELECT Id,Name FROM Contact WHERE (LastName=:FirstName AND MailingPostalCode=:ID)];
return conList;
}
}
This Worked for me I hope it will work for you guys as well.
Follow the steps:
Step 1: Go into the Developer Console > Apex class >ContactSearch
Step 2: Follow the below syntax.
public class ContactSearch {
public static List<Contact> searchForContacts (String lname, String postalCode){
List<Contact> contacts = [SELECT LastName FROM Contact where lastName = :lname AND
MailingPostalCode = :postalCode] ;
return contacts;
}
}
Step 3: For debug execution.
ContactSearch.searchForContacts('lname', 'postalCode');
Example:
ContactSearch.searchForContacts('Forbes', '78767');
Thank you!!!

public class ContactSearch { public static List<Contact> searchForContacts(String a, String b) { Integer i=0; List<Contact> cont=[Select ID,LastName, MailingPostalCode from Contact]; List<Contact> contlist=new List<Contact>(); for (Contact con : cont) { if (con.LastName==a || con.MailingPostalCode==b) { contlist.add(con); } } return contlist; } }I tried this with For loop
