Why each option
During a data import, records that do not meet Salesforce validation criteria will fail to import, while records that comply with the rules will be processed successfully.
The import process respects and applies data validation criteria to maintain data quality; it does not ignore them.
The import process does not typically offer user authorization to override validation rules for invalid records; it rejects them by default.
The import process generally continues to process valid records even after encountering invalid ones, logging errors for the failed records rather than aborting entirely.
Salesforce import processes enforce validation rules; therefore, only the specific records that fail to meet these rules will be rejected and generate errors, while valid records will still be imported.
