PL-900 Practice Test 29 — 15 Questions

Question 1

Your model-driven app uses a custom entity 'Project' with a 1:N relationship to 'Task'. You need to add a subgrid on the Project form that shows related tasks, but only tasks assigned to the current user. How should you achieve this?

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

Accepted Answer

Create a system view on the Task entity that filters by 'Owner equals Current User' and select it in the subgrid properties. You can create a system view on the Task entity that filters by 'Owner equals Current User' and then select that view in the subgrid properties. Option A is wrong because workflows cannot filter subgrids; they can only automate processes. Option B is wrong because business rules control form behavior (like visibility or field values) but cannot filter subgrid data. Option D is wrong because using the default view would show all tasks (or those allowed by security roles), not filtered by current user; security roles control access rights, not subgrid filtering criteria.

Answer

Create a workflow that updates a field on the Project form to filter the subgrid

Answer

Add a business rule on the Project form to filter the subgrid

Answer

Configure the subgrid to use the default view and assign security roles to filter tasks

Question 2

A user wants to build an app that allows field technicians to view work orders and capture photos offline. Which type of Power App should be chosen?

Accepted Answer

Canvas app with offline capability enabled.. Canvas apps can be enabled for offline use via the mobile app, allowing field technicians to view work orders and capture photos without connectivity. Option A is incorrect because Power Pages sites are public-facing websites, not designed for offline field worker scenarios. Option B is incorrect because AI Builder is a service for adding AI capabilities, not an app type; embedding it does not provide native offline support. Option C is incorrect because model-driven apps have limited offline capabilities and are not as flexible for offline data capture as canvas apps.

Answer

Power Pages site with offline access.

Answer

AI Builder model embedded in a canvas app.

Answer

Model-driven app because it natively supports offline.

Question 3

Which THREE are valid ways to embed a canvas app in another application? (Choose three.)

Accepted Answer

Embed in a SharePoint page using the Power Apps web part. Options A, C, and D are correct because Power Apps canvas apps can be embedded in SharePoint using the Power Apps web part, as a custom visual in Power BI reports, and as a tab in Microsoft Teams. Option B is incorrect because embedding in Excel requires a custom add-in, which is not a standard embedding method for canvas apps. Option E is incorrect because Dynamics 365 Sales Hub primarily uses model-driven apps, not embedding canvas apps directly via the standard embedding options.

Answer

Embed in Microsoft Excel using a custom add-in

Answer

Embed in Dynamics 365 Sales Hub

Question 4

A user built a canvas app that uses a SharePoint list. When they add the app to a Teams channel, some users cannot see the data. The app works fine when opened directly from Power Apps. What is the most likely cause?

Accepted Answer

The users do not have permissions to the underlying SharePoint list. The most likely cause is that users do not have permissions to the underlying SharePoint list. When the app is accessed via Teams, the app runs in the context of the user, and SharePoint permissions are enforced. Even though the app works when opened directly from Power Apps (if the user has permissions), adding it to a Teams channel may expose users who lack access to the list. Option A is incorrect because licenses are per user and not specific to Teams; if users have Power Apps licenses, they can use the app. Option B is incorrect because the app works outside Teams, so the connector is not deprecated. Option D is incorrect because the SharePoint connector does not require a Premium license in Teams.

Answer

The users do not have Power Apps licenses assigned

Answer

The app uses a deprecated connector

Answer

The SharePoint connector requires a Premium license in Teams

Question 5

Refer to the exhibit. The JSON shows permissions for a user in a Power Apps environment. What can be inferred?

Accepted Answer

The user is an administrator of the environment. The JSON shows the user has the Environment Admin role, which grants full administrative permissions over the environment. Option A is incorrect because the maker role is separate and not indicated. Option B is incorrect because having an admin role implies access. Option C is incorrect because an admin can perform actions beyond viewing.

Answer

The user is a maker who can create apps

Answer

The user has no access to any app

Answer

The user can only view apps

Question 6

A company uses Power Apps to build a canvas app for field technicians to report equipment issues. The app includes a GPS location control and requires offline capability. During a pilot, technicians report that the app fails to load data when they are in remote areas with no internet. Which design change should the app maker implement to address this issue?

Accepted Answer

Enable offline use and configure the app to cache data locally.. Enabling offline use in canvas apps allows users to load data while connected and work with cached data when disconnected. Option A is wrong because adjusting GPS settings does not affect offline data availability. Option B is wrong because Power Automate flows require connectivity and do not enable offline data storage. Option D is wrong because converting to a model-driven app does not inherently solve offline requirements unless specifically configured.

Answer

Adjust the GPS control to use high accuracy mode.

Answer

Add a Power Automate flow to sync data periodically.

Answer

Convert the canvas app to a model-driven app.

Question 7

A model-driven app uses a business process flow to guide users through a sales process. The flow has multiple stages, and users complain that they can move to the next stage without completing required fields. What should the app maker do to enforce data entry?

Accepted Answer

Set the fields as required in the business process flow stage. Setting fields as required in the business process flow stage ensures they must be filled before progressing to the next stage. Option A is incorrect because setting fields as business required in the entity applies globally, not just within the flow, and would affect all forms and views. Option C is incorrect because validation rules apply to the field's data integrity, not to flow stage transitions. Option D is incorrect because making fields read-only would prevent data entry entirely, not enforce required completion.

Answer

Set the fields as business required in the entity

Answer

Add a validation rule on the entity fields

Answer

Make the fields read-only in the business process flow stage

Question 8

A company wants to build a mobile app for field service technicians to view and update work orders. The app must work offline when technicians are in areas with no connectivity. Which Power Apps capability should the developer use?

Accepted Answer

Power Apps mobile app with offline sync. The Power Apps mobile app includes built-in offline sync capabilities that allow field service technicians to view and update work orders even when there is no network connectivity. Data is cached locally and synchronized with the server once connectivity is restored. Option A is incorrect because while canvas apps can be configured for offline use, the question specifically asks about the capability that enables offline functionality, which is the mobile app's offline sync feature rather than the development tool. Option B is incorrect because Microsoft Dataverse offline profiles are a configuration option within Dataverse, but the enabling feature for offline use in Power Apps is the mobile app itself. Option C is incorrect because model-driven apps rely on Dataverse and can support offline, but again, the key capability that makes offline possible is the Power Apps mobile app's offline sync, not the app type.

Answer

Canvas apps from Power Apps Studio

Answer

Microsoft Dataverse offline profiles

Answer

Model-driven apps

Question 9

An organization has a model-driven app built on Dataverse. Users report that when they try to save a record, they receive an error about missing required fields, but they believe they filled them in. What is the most likely cause?

Accepted Answer

A business rule is setting a field as required based on conditions. Business rules can dynamically set field requirements based on conditions, which may cause users to see missing required fields even if they filled in all originally required fields. Option B is incorrect because write permissions would prevent saving entirely, not just show missing required fields. Option C is incorrect because Power Automate flows run after a record is saved, not before, so they cannot block the save. Option D is incorrect because custom connectors are used for integrating external systems, not for Dataverse field validation.

Answer

The user does not have write permissions to the Dataverse table

Answer

A Power Automate flow is blocking the save

Answer

A custom connector is failing to validate data

Question 10

A user wants to create a Power App that can be used by external customers to submit support tickets. The app should not require customers to sign in. Which type of Power Apps portal should you use? A) Canvas app with anonymous access B) Model-driven app with anonymous access C) Power Pages D) Power Automate portal

Accepted Answer

Power Pages. Power Pages is the correct choice because it is designed for external-facing portals that can be accessed anonymously, allowing customers to submit support tickets without signing in. Option A (Power Automate portal) is used for managing flows, not for building portals. Option C (Canvas app with anonymous access) requires authentication; Canvas apps do not support true anonymous access. Option D (Model-driven app with anonymous access) also requires authentication; model-driven apps are for internal users with proper licensing.

Answer

Power Automate portal

Answer

Canvas app with anonymous access

Answer

Model-driven app with anonymous access

Question 11

A company wants to create a mobile app for field technicians to view and update work orders. The work orders are stored in a SharePoint list. Technicians need to filter work orders by status and take photos of completed work, attaching them to the work order. Which type of Power App should you recommend? A) Model-driven app B) Canvas app C) Power Pages website D) Power Automate flow

Accepted Answer

Canvas app. Canvas apps provide a flexible, customizable user interface that supports camera controls for taking photos and can easily connect to SharePoint lists for data storage and filtering. Option B (Power Automate flow) is incorrect because it is an automation tool, not an app builder. Option C (Model-driven app) is less suitable due to limited UI customization for camera integration. Option D (Power Pages) is designed for external websites, not mobile field technician apps.

Answer

Power Automate flow

Answer

Model-driven app

Answer

Power Pages website

Question 12

Refer to the exhibit. The JSON shows the definition of a Power App. What can be concluded?

Accepted Answer

The app connects to SharePoint Online. The JSON includes a connection reference to SharePoint Online, indicating that the app uses SharePoint as its data source. Option A is incorrect because the JSON does not provide any deployment status information. Option C is incorrect because the data source is SharePoint, not Dataverse. Option D is incorrect because the 'type' field in the JSON indicates it is a CanvasApp, not a model-driven app.

Answer

The app is deployed to production

Answer

The app uses Dataverse as its data source

Answer

The app is a model-driven app

Question 13

Which TWO are valid ways to share a canvas app with other users in your organization?

Accepted Answer

Share directly from the Power Apps maker portal. Correct: B and C. The two valid ways to share a canvas app with other users in your organization are: sharing directly from the Power Apps maker portal (B) and embedding the app in Microsoft Teams (C). Sharing directly from the maker portal is the standard method, and embedding in Teams allows users to access the app within the Teams interface. Option A is incorrect because publishing to a SharePoint list is not a sharing method for canvas apps; that's for SharePoint lists themselves. Option D is incorrect because providing a direct link to the .msapp file is not supported; users need a proper share link or must be added to the app's permissions. Option E is incorrect because sending the app file as an email attachment is not possible; the app file is not a standalone executable.

Answer

Publish the app to a SharePoint list

Answer

Provide a direct link to the .msapp file

Answer

Send the app file as an email attachment

Question 14

You have a canvas app that uses a SharePoint list as its data source. The app needs to filter records based on the current user's email. Which function should you use in the Items property of the gallery?

Accepted Answer

Filter(SharePointList, Email = User().Email). The User() function returns a record with the current user's details, including Email. Option A is incorrect because the Search function is used for searching text across multiple columns, not for filtering by exact match. Option B is incorrect because CurrentUser is not a valid function; the correct syntax is User().Email. Option D is incorrect because Lookup returns a single record, not a filtered set of records.

Answer

Search(SharePointList, User().Email, "Email")

Answer

Filter(SharePointList, Email = CurrentUser.Email)

Answer

Lookup(SharePointList, Email = User().Email)

Question 15

A model-driven app uses a custom business process flow. Users report that they cannot progress beyond a stage even after completing all required fields. What should you check?

Accepted Answer

Whether the stage has a condition that is not being met. Business process flow stages can have conditions that must be satisfied before progressing. If a condition is not met, the user cannot move to the next stage. Option A is incorrect because stages are not locked by administrators in standard configurations. Option B is incorrect because required fields on the form may not be part of the stage condition; the condition could involve other criteria. Option C is incorrect because security roles control access to records, not the progression within a business process flow.

Answer

Whether the stage is locked by an administrator

Answer

Whether the required fields on the form are marked as business required

Answer

Whether the user has the correct security role to update the stage
