Trigger.new
Learn Trigger.new in Apex with a construct-specific explanation, a unique example, a practical boundary, and a mastery check.
Trigger.new is an atomic Apex topic inside Triggers. The example below uses the actual construct named by the lesson rather than a generic placeholder.
Focus on what Trigger.new changes: the input, binding, control path, object state, collection, runtime effect, or language contract. Then alter one value and verify that the behavior changes for a reason specific to this feature.
Topic-specific example
trigger ContactTrigger on Contact (before insert) { for(Contact c:Trigger.new){ c.Title='New'; } }
Change the key input in this Apex example and predict the result first; the named construct should be the reason the behavior changes.
