Which fields are accessible in a Trigger.new record without performing a SOQL query in Salesforce?
Which fields are accessible in a Trigger.new record without performing a SOQL query? For example if my trigger is on the Contact object, are fields on the parent Account object (like Account Description) accessible without performing an explicit SOQL query?

Hi Laveena,
You can use Trigger.new to access all non-null fields of the object on which the trigger is defined. You have to perform an explicit SOQL query to access any fields on associated parent or child records.
For example, if the trigger is defined on Contact, you can only access the Id of the parent Account record (via AccountId) in Trigger.new. You’d need to perform a separate SOQL query to access any other field on the parent Account record (e.g. Description, Industry, etc.).
