How does class key value validation differ from remote list validation methods?

Class key value validation differs from remote list validation methods primarily in that it specifies a class. This means that class key value validation is fundamentally tied to specific classes within the Pega application, ensuring that the value being validated is associated with a particular data structure or model in the system. This contextual linking is crucial for maintaining data integrity and ensuring that input values conform to expected criteria based on the business rules defined for that class.

In contrast, remote list validation methods often pull data from external sources or databases, which may not be directly tied to a specific class in the Pega application. This makes class key value validation particularly suited for scenarios where the data being validated needs to align closely with predefined business logic in the application, whereas remote lists can offer more dynamic or external validations that are less class-specific.
