D or B A formula field using the HYPERLINK function can be used to launch an external credit application and pass the credit ID in Salesforce, so an Apex trigger is not strictly required in this scenario; however, depending on the complexity of the credit application launch process and the desired functionality, an Apex trigger might be necessary for more advanced actions or data manipulation. upvoted 1 times
