PL-900 Practice Test 13 — 15 Questions

Question 1

A user reports that a scheduled flow runs but does not send notifications as expected. The flow is set to run every hour. Which action should the user take first to diagnose the issue?

Accepted Answer

Check the flow run history for errors.. The first step to diagnose why a scheduled flow runs but does not send notifications is to check the flow run history. The run history provides details about each run, including success, failure, and any error messages, which can indicate why notifications are not being sent. Option B (recreating the flow) is premature without understanding the root cause. Option C (verifying notifications in the user's profile) may be relevant but should come after checking run history. Option D (adjusting the schedule) does not address the issue since the flow runs already.

Answer

Recreate the flow from scratch.

Answer

Verify that notifications are enabled in the user's profile.

Answer

Adjust the flow schedule to run more frequently.

Question 2

A company plans to deploy Power Apps for field service technicians. The IT department requires that all users authenticate using their corporate credentials and that access to the Power Apps environment is restricted to users from the company's tenant only. Which configuration should the administrator use?

Accepted Answer

Set the environment security group to 'Only internal users' and disable external sharing. Setting the environment security group to 'Only internal users' and disabling external sharing ensures that only authenticated users from the company's own Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) tenant can access the Power Apps environment. This meets the IT requirement of restricting access to corporate credentials and the company's tenant only, preventing any external guest or user from another tenant from signing in.

Answer

Enable 'Allow users from other tenants' in environment settings

Answer

Set the environment security group to 'All users' and enable external sharing

Answer

Assign a security group that includes only specific technicians

Question 3

Which THREE components are part of a model-driven app in Power Apps? (Choose three.)

Accepted Answer

Views. Views, tables, and forms are core components of a model-driven app in Power Apps. Views define how records in a table are displayed in lists, tables store the data, and forms provide the user interface for viewing and editing records. These components are built on Microsoft Dataverse and are essential for structuring the app's data and user experience.

Answer

Galleries

Answer

Screens

Question 4

Which TWO of the following are capabilities of Power Automate that help with monitoring and troubleshooting flows?

Accepted Answer

Analytics in the Power Platform admin center. The correct answers are C and D. Run history provides detailed information about each flow execution, including inputs, outputs, and errors, allowing users to troubleshoot issues. Analytics in the Power Platform admin center offer insights into flow usage, performance, and error trends. Option A is incorrect because the 'When a flow is completed' trigger is used to start another flow upon completion, not for monitoring or troubleshooting. Option B is incorrect because automatic email notifications on failure are not a built-in monitoring capability; they can be configured as part of a flow, but they are not a platform-level monitoring feature. Option E is incorrect because the 'Configure run after' setting controls what happens after a previous action fails, skips, or succeeds; it is a configuration for flow logic, not a monitoring/troubleshooting capability.

Answer

The 'When a flow is completed' trigger

Answer

Automatic email notifications when a flow fails

Answer

The 'Configure run after' setting

Question 5

Which THREE are valid components of a Microsoft Power Platform environment?

Accepted Answer

Custom connector. A custom connector is a valid component of a Microsoft Power Platform environment because it allows you to extend the platform by creating your own API connectors to external services. Custom connectors are stored and managed within an environment, enabling makers to build apps and flows that interact with systems not covered by out-of-the-box connectors.

Answer

Power BI workspace

Answer

Microsoft 365 Group

Question 6

Which TWO actions can be performed using Power Automate? (Select TWO.)

Accepted Answer

Create a new item in a SharePoint list. Options C and D are correct. Power Automate can create new items in SharePoint lists and send emails using Office 365 Outlook. Option A is incorrect because building custom AI models is done with AI Builder, not Power Automate. Option B is incorrect because assigning Microsoft 365 licenses is performed in the Microsoft 365 admin center. Option E is incorrect because designing Power BI dashboards is done in Power BI Desktop.

Answer

Build a custom AI model to analyze images

Answer

Assign Microsoft 365 licenses to users

Answer

Design a Power BI dashboard

Question 7

Which tool is used to create and manage a Power Pages site from start to finish?

Accepted Answer

Power Pages design studio. Power Pages design studio is the primary tool used to create and manage a Power Pages site end-to-end. Option A is incorrect because Power Apps maker portal is used for building canvas and model-driven apps, not Power Pages. Option C is incorrect because although Visual Studio Code with Power Platform extension can be used for custom development, it is not the primary tool for creating and managing a Power Pages site from start to finish. Option D is incorrect because Power Automate portal is for automating workflows, not for Power Pages site management.

Answer

Power Apps maker portal

Answer

Visual Studio Code with Power Platform extension

Answer

Power Automate portal

Question 8

A marketing team wants to share a Power BI dashboard with external stakeholders who do not have Power BI licenses. Which sharing method should the team use?

Accepted Answer

Use Publish to web (embed code) to create a public link. 'Publish to web' generates an embed code that creates a publicly accessible link to the Power BI dashboard, which can be viewed by anyone without requiring a Power BI license or authentication. This is the only method listed that allows external stakeholders without licenses to access the dashboard directly in a browser.

Answer

Share the dashboard from the Power BI service

Answer

Add the stakeholders to a Power BI workspace with viewer role

Answer

Export the report to PDF and email it

Question 9

Which TWO are valid ways to access the Power Platform admin center? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Through the Microsoft 365 admin center under 'All admin centers'. The Microsoft 365 admin center includes a link to 'All admin centers,' which provides direct access to the Power Platform admin center. Option D is correct because the Power Platform admin center can be accessed directly via its dedicated URL, https://admin.powerplatform.com, which is the primary entry point for managing environments, data policies, and settings.

Answer

Through the Power Apps maker portal under 'Admin'

Answer

Through the Microsoft Entra admin center under 'Power Platform'

Answer

Through the Azure portal under 'Power Platform'

Question 10

Which TWO are benefits of using Dataverse as the data source for Power Apps?

Accepted Answer

Rich relationships between tables. Options D and E are correct. Dataverse provides rich relationships between tables (D) and role-based security with field-level permissions (E). Option A is incorrect because Dataverse is not a graph database and does not natively support graph data. Option B is incorrect because automatic Excel export is not a built-in feature of Dataverse; it can be achieved through Power Apps or Power Automate. Option C is incorrect because Dataverse does not support complex SQL queries directly; it uses a Power Platform-specific query language (FetchXML or OData).

Answer

Built-in support for graph data

Answer

Automatic Excel export

Answer

Ability to run complex SQL queries

Question 11

Which TWO Microsoft Power Platform solutions are designed to be used together to build a complete customer feedback analysis system that collects feedback from multiple channels, processes sentiment, and provides actionable insights?

Accepted Answer

AI Builder. AI Builder (D) is correct because it provides pre-built AI models for sentiment analysis, which can process feedback text from multiple channels to determine positive, negative, or neutral sentiment. Power Automate (E) is correct because it orchestrates the collection of feedback from various sources (e.g., email, forms, social media) and triggers actions based on sentiment results, enabling a complete automated feedback analysis pipeline.

Answer

Dataverse

Answer

Power Apps

Answer

Power BI

Question 12

An organization is configuring a custom connector in Power Automate to connect to Salesforce. The exhibit shows a snippet of the connector definition. However, when attempting to test the connection, the authentication fails. What is the most likely cause?

Accepted Answer

The OAuth flow type is incorrectly set to 'accessCode' instead of 'authorizationCode'.. The OAuth 2.0 flow type 'accessCode' is not a valid OAuth 2.0 grant type. The correct value for the authorization code grant type is 'authorizationCode'. Power Automate custom connectors require this exact string to properly initiate the OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow with Salesforce. Using 'accessCode' causes the authentication handshake to fail because the connector cannot map the flow to a supported OAuth grant.

Answer

The scopes array is missing the 'id' scope.

Answer

The apiVersion is not supported by Power Automate.

Answer

The serviceUrl should point to the Salesforce instance, not login.salesforce.com.

Question 13

An organization uses Power BI to analyze sales data. They notice that the report takes over a minute to load, and they need to improve performance quickly without changing the data source. Which action should they take?

Accepted Answer

Reduce the number of visuals on the dashboard.. Reducing the number of visuals on a Power BI dashboard directly decreases the number of queries sent to the data model and the rendering workload, which can significantly improve load times without altering the data source. This is the quickest performance optimization available when the data source cannot be changed, as each visual typically triggers separate DAX queries and rendering processes.

Answer

Change the data source to use DirectQuery instead of Import.

Answer

Implement data aggregations in Power BI.

Answer

Create a new composite model.

Question 14

A company is building a public-facing portal to allow customers to submit support tickets and track their status. The portal must support anonymous browsing for ticket submission but require authentication to view ticket details. Which Power Pages feature should they use?

Accepted Answer

Page permissions with anonymous and authenticated web roles. Power Pages allows configuring page permissions with web roles to control access. Anonymous users can be allowed to submit tickets, while authenticated users can view ticket details. Option A is wrong because Power Automate flows triggered by page visits are not for access control. Option B is wrong because Microsoft Customer Voice is for surveys. Option C is wrong because Dataverse table permissions control data access at the table level, not page-level access control.

Answer

Power Automate flows triggered by page visits

Answer

Microsoft Customer Voice

Answer

Dataverse table permissions

Question 15

A company wants to automate the approval process for purchase orders. Which Power Platform component should they use?

It can trigger actions based on events, route documents for approval, and integrate with various data sources, making it ideal for streamlining business processes like purchase order approvals.

Answer
