PL-900 Practice Test 16 — 15 Questions

Question 1

Refer to the exhibit. A developer is creating a model-driven app based on a custom Dataverse table defined by this JSON. The app needs a form that shows the Approved field only when the amount is greater than 1000. Which feature should the developer use?

Choose an answer to begin — your selection is scored in the full session.

Accepted Answer

Business rule. Business rules can show or hide fields based on conditions without requiring code. Option A is correct because business rules are designed for declarative logic in model-driven apps, such as showing the Approved field only when Amount > 1000. Option B is incorrect because form scripting requires JavaScript, which is not necessary here. Option C is incorrect because workflow processes handle backend logic, not form behavior. Option D is incorrect because Power Automate flows are for automation outside of forms.

Answer

Form scripting

Answer

Workflow process

Answer

Power Automate flow

Question 2

A company uses Power Platform with Microsoft Dataverse. The administrator notices that a user can create a new environment without approval. The company wants to enforce a process where all environment creation requires administrator approval. What should the administrator configure?

Accepted Answer

Disable the 'Create personal productivity environments' setting in the Power Platform admin center. The 'Create personal productivity environments' setting in the Power Platform admin center controls whether users can create their own environments without requiring administrator approval. Disabling this setting enforces a process where all environment creation must go through an administrator, aligning with the company's requirement for approval-based environment provisioning.

Answer

Configure a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policy

Answer

Set a conditional access policy in Microsoft Entra ID

Answer

Reduce the tenant-level environment capacity limits

Question 3

An organization wants to enable Microsoft Copilot Studio (formerly Power Virtual Agents) to answer questions from employees about company policies. The chatbot must only use internal company documents stored in SharePoint as its knowledge source. Which configuration should the administrator use?

Accepted Answer

Add a SharePoint knowledge source in Copilot Studio and configure authentication to use the company's Microsoft Entra ID. Microsoft Copilot Studio allows administrators to add SharePoint as a knowledge source directly, enabling the chatbot to retrieve answers from internal documents without custom development. Configuring authentication with Microsoft Entra ID ensures that only authorized users can access the company policies, maintaining security and compliance.

Answer

Enable the 'Use generative AI' feature in the Power Platform admin center

Answer

Deploy a custom connector to SharePoint

Answer

Create a Power Automate flow to fetch data from SharePoint and pass it to the chatbot

Question 4

A Power Pages site allows external vendors to register and submit invoices. The site uses Microsoft Entra ID for authentication. Recently, some vendors reported they cannot log in and receive an error about insufficient permissions. What is the most likely cause?

Accepted Answer

The vendors have not been invited as guest users in the Microsoft Entra ID tenant.. When using Microsoft Entra ID, the vendor must be invited as a guest user in the tenant, and if not, they will get an access error. Option A is wrong because the issue is about authentication, not licensing. Option C is wrong because cookies are not the primary issue. Option D is wrong because the identity provider is configured.

Answer

The identity provider for the site is not configured.

Answer

The site's cookie settings block third-party authentication.

Answer

The vendors do not have a Power Pages license.

Question 5

Refer to the exhibit. A Power BI developer imported the JSON data into a Power BI data model. When creating a report, they notice that the 'Sales' table does not display the product name. What is the most likely cause?

Accepted Answer

The relationship between Sales and Product tables is not active or is misconfigured.. The most likely cause is that the relationship between the Sales and Product tables is either inactive or misconfigured. In Power BI, even when a relationship exists, if it is set to inactive (e.g., using a bidirectional filter or a different cardinality), the report will not automatically propagate the ProductName from the Product table to the Sales table. This prevents the product name from displaying in the report, even though the data is present in the model.

Answer

No relationship is defined between the tables.

Answer

The Sales table and Product table are from different data sources.

Answer

The 'ProductName' column is missing from the Product table.

Question 6

Which THREE of the following are capabilities of AI Builder within Power Platform? (Choose three.)

Accepted Answer

Text recognition (OCR) from images and PDFs.. AI Builder includes a prebuilt model for text recognition (OCR) that can extract printed and handwritten text from images and PDFs. This capability is part of the AI Builder category of prebuilt models, which are ready to use without requiring custom training.

Answer

Custom machine learning model training from scratch.

Answer

Building custom user interfaces for mobile apps.

Question 7

A government agency needs to modernize a paper-based permit approval process. The solution must enforce strict access control, provide an audit trail, and allow citizens to submit applications online. The agency uses Microsoft 365 and has a Power Platform license. Which approach should they take?

Accepted Answer

Use Power Pages for citizen submissions, Dataverse for storage, and Power Automate for approvals. It combines Power Pages for external citizen-facing submission portals, Dataverse for secure, auditable data storage with role-based access control, and Power Automate for automated approval workflows. This architecture meets all requirements: strict access control (Dataverse roles), audit trail (Dataverse change tracking and auditing), and online citizen submissions (Power Pages).

Answer

Use Power Automate with AI Builder to process paper forms and store in SharePoint

Answer

Build a Power Apps model-driven app for internal staff and a canvas app for citizens

Answer

Use Power BI to create a dashboard and Power Automate for approvals

Question 8

Refer to the exhibit. A Power Platform admin views the capacity of a sandbox environment. Based on the exhibit, which statement is true?

Accepted Answer

The environment is a sandbox and thus has reduced capacity limits.. The exhibit shows a sandbox environment with capacity values that are lower than production defaults. Sandbox environments in Power Platform have reduced capacity limits by design, as they are intended for development and testing, not production workloads. This aligns with the statement that the environment is a sandbox and thus has reduced capacity limits.

Answer

The capacity values are unusually low and may indicate a problem.

Answer

The environment has production-level capacity.

Answer

The capacity cannot be increased with add-ons.

Question 9

A company uses Microsoft Power Platform and wants to enforce data loss prevention (DLP) policies for all environments. The admin needs to block the use of SharePoint connector in all default environments. Which action should the admin take?

Accepted Answer

Create a DLP policy that applies to all environments and block the SharePoint connector.. DLP policies in Microsoft Power Platform are designed to control connector usage across environments. By creating a DLP policy that applies to all environments and blocking the SharePoint connector, the admin ensures that the connector is prohibited in every environment, including all default environments. This action directly enforces the data loss prevention requirement at the tenant level.

Answer

Create a DLP policy and assign it to the default environment only.

Answer

Use Microsoft Entra ID conditional access to block the SharePoint connector.

Answer

Configure connector sharing settings in Power Apps to block SharePoint.

Question 10

A company wants to reduce manual data entry by automatically extracting information from invoices and updating a SharePoint list. Which combination of Power Platform components should they use?

Accepted Answer

Power Automate and AI Builder. AI Builder provides prebuilt invoice processing models that can extract key fields (e.g., invoice number, date, total) from documents, and Power Automate can trigger a flow to write that extracted data directly into a SharePoint list. This combination eliminates manual data entry by automating the extraction and storage pipeline.

Answer

Power BI and Power Virtual Agents

Answer

Power Apps and Power Automate

Answer

Power Apps and Power BI

Question 11

Which TWO scenarios are suitable for using a scheduled cloud flow in Power Automate?

Accepted Answer

Backing up a database to a cloud storage every night at midnight. Scheduled cloud flows run on a recurring schedule, making them ideal for time-based automation like nightly backups or daily report generation. Option B triggers at a specific time (midnight) without requiring an external event, which matches the scheduled flow pattern exactly.

Answer

Creating a file in SharePoint whenever a new file is uploaded to a OneDrive folder

Answer

Sending an approval request to a manager when a new expense report is submitted

Answer

Sending a welcome email to a new user immediately after they sign up

Question 12

A marketing team needs to analyze customer feedback from surveys and social media. They want to use AI to extract sentiment and key topics. Which capability should they use?

Accepted Answer

AI Builder. AI Builder includes sentiment analysis and key phrase extraction models. Power Automate can orchestrate but needs AI Builder for the AI. Power BI and Copilot Studio are not the primary tools for this custom AI task.

Answer

Microsoft Copilot Studio

Answer

Power BI natural language queries

Answer

Power Automate

Question 13

You are a Power BI administrator for a large retail company. The company has a Power BI workspace that contains a dashboard named 'Sales Overview'. The dashboard is shared with the sales team. Recently, users have reported that the dashboard is loading slowly, and some visuals show 'Data is not available' errors. The dashboard uses a DirectQuery connection to an on-premises SQL Server database. The database team confirms that the server is not under heavy load. You need to troubleshoot and resolve the issue. What should you do first?

Accepted Answer

Check the on-premises data gateway performance and logs for errors. The on-premises data gateway is the critical bridge between Power BI and the on-premises SQL Server when using DirectQuery. Slow loading and 'Data is not available' errors often stem from gateway performance issues, connectivity problems, or errors logged by the gateway service. Checking the gateway logs and performance metrics is the first logical troubleshooting step before making architectural changes.

Answer

Replace the DirectQuery connection with an Import connection

Answer

Ask the database team to add more indexes to the SQL Server tables

Answer

Increase the scheduled refresh frequency to every 15 minutes

Question 14

A global organization uses Power Platform with Microsoft Dataverse as the data source. They need to ensure that users in different regions only see data relevant to their region. What should they implement?

Accepted Answer

Dataverse security roles with row-level security. Dataverse security roles can be configured with row-level security to restrict data access by region. This is a native capability of Dataverse.

Answer

Power Apps app permissions

Answer

Power Automate conditional logic

Answer

Power BI dashboard filters

Question 15

Refer to the exhibit. You are reviewing an ARM template that creates a Power Platform environment. The deployment fails with an error stating that the 'Microsoft.PowerApps/environments' resource type is not supported in the current subscription. What is the most likely reason?

Accepted Answer

The Microsoft.PowerApps resource provider is not registered in the subscription.. The error 'resource type is not supported in the current subscription' indicates that the Azure Resource Manager (ARM) deployment cannot find the Microsoft.PowerApps resource provider. This provider must be explicitly registered at the subscription level before any Power Platform environment resources can be created via ARM templates. Without registration, ARM rejects the resource type as unsupported, regardless of other template parameters.

Answer

The environment name parameter contains invalid characters.

Answer

The environmentSku 'Production' is not a valid SKU.

Answer

The location parameter is set to an unsupported region.
