PL-900 Practice Test 4 — 10 Questions

Question 1

An organization needs to create a custom app that displays data from Dynamics 365 Sales and allows users to update records. The app should automatically generate a responsive UI based on the data model. Which type of app should they build?

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

Accepted Answer

Model-driven app. A model-driven app is the correct choice because it automatically generates a responsive UI based on the underlying data model (e.g., Dynamics 365 Sales entities like Account, Contact, Opportunity). It provides built-in forms, views, and business process flows that allow users to view and update records without manual UI design, aligning with the requirement for automatic UI generation and data update capabilities.

Power Pages

Question 2

Which TWO of the following are valid environment types in Power Platform?

Accepted Answer

Production. Production and Sandbox are both valid environment types in Power Platform. Production environments are intended for live, end-user applications and data, while Sandbox environments are isolated, non-production environments used for development, testing, and training. Both support the full set of Power Platform capabilities, including Dataverse, Power Apps, Power Automate, and Power Virtual Agents.

Question 3

A global organization uses Power Platform to manage IT support tickets. They have the following requirements: 1) Tickets must be routed to the appropriate team based on category. 2) The routing logic must be easy to update by non-developers. 3) All ticket data must be stored in a secure, auditable data source. Which THREE Power Platform components should they use?

Accepted Answer

Power Automate. Power Automate is correct because it provides the workflow automation needed to route tickets to the appropriate team based on category. Its low-code interface allows non-developers to easily update routing logic using triggers, conditions, and actions without writing code.

Answer

Copilot Studio

Answer

Power Apps

Question 4

You have a canvas app that uses a Microsoft Dataverse table. Users need to see only their own records. What is the most efficient method to implement this security?

Accepted Answer

Use the Filter function with User().Email or User().FullName.. The most efficient method is to use the Filter function with User().Email or User().FullName to filter records based on the current user. This approach leverages the app's built-in context without requiring additional security configuration. Option A is incorrect because removing datasource permissions undermines data security and is not a best practice. Option B is incorrect because while security roles can restrict access, they are more complex to set up and may not be the most efficient for simply filtering by user identity. Option D is incorrect because storing user ID in a global variable is less efficient and can be less secure compared to using the User() function directly in the filter.

Answer

Remove the datasource permissions and let the app handle all security.

Answer

Set up Dataverse security roles and assign them to users.

Answer

Store the user ID in a global variable and use it in queries.

Question 5

A small business wants to create a chatbot to answer common customer questions about store hours and return policies. Which Power Platform tool should they use?

Accepted Answer

Copilot Studio. Copilot Studio (formerly Power Virtual Agents) is the correct tool because it is specifically designed to create conversational AI chatbots without writing code. It allows the business to build a bot that answers common questions about store hours and return policies by defining topics and using natural language processing to interact with users.

Answer

Power BI

Answer

Power Automate

Answer

Power Apps

Question 6

A healthcare organization uses Power Apps to manage patient intake forms. The app is built on Dataverse and includes a field for medical record number (MRN) that must be unique. The app currently uses a text input, but duplicate MRNs have been entered. What is the best way to enforce uniqueness at the data layer?

Accepted Answer

Create a Dataverse alternate key on the MRN field. A Dataverse alternate key enforces uniqueness at the database level, preventing duplicate MRN values from being saved regardless of how data enters the system. This is the only option that operates at the data layer, ensuring integrity even if the app, a flow, or an external integration submits a record. Alternate keys are indexed and validated by Dataverse before commit, making them the proper solution for unique field constraints.

Answer

Use a Power Automate flow to check for duplicates after submission

Answer

Configure a business rule on the MRN field

Answer

Add a validation rule in the app to check for duplicates before submitting

Question 7

A Power Platform administrator needs to restrict data loss prevention (DLP) policies to prevent sensitive data from being shared with non-approved connectors. Which scope should the administrator apply?

Accepted Answer

Environment-level. Environment-level DLP policies allow administrators to apply data loss prevention rules to specific environments, ensuring that sensitive data is not shared with non-approved connectors within that environment. This granular control is necessary when different environments have different compliance requirements, such as separating development from production data flows.

Answer

Group-level

Answer

Tenant-level

Answer

User-level

Question 8

A company uses Microsoft Copilot Studio to create a custom copilot. The copilot needs to access customer data stored in a Dataverse table that contains sensitive information. The compliance team requires that data accessed by the copilot must be audited. What should the admin configure?

Accepted Answer

Enable auditing in Microsoft Purview and log copilot interactions.. Microsoft Purview auditing captures detailed logs of user and admin activities, including interactions with custom copilots built in Copilot Studio. By enabling auditing in Purview and logging copilot interactions, the admin can meet the compliance requirement to audit all data accessed by the copilot, ensuring a traceable record of sensitive customer data access.

Answer

Deploy Microsoft Sentinel to monitor copilot behavior.

Answer

Configure a DLP policy to block non-compliant data access.

Answer

Use Copilot Studio analytics to track usage.

Question 9

A company wants to enforce data loss prevention (DLP) policies for Power Automate flows. Which TWO actions can the administrator perform?

Accepted Answer

Block specific connectors from being used in flows. Administrators can block specific connectors from being used in Power Automate flows as part of a DLP policy, preventing data from being shared with unauthorized services. Option C is correct because DLP policies can be scoped to a specific environment, allowing granular control over connector usage within that environment. This enables the administrator to enforce data protection rules tailored to different business contexts.

Answer

Allow users to bypass DLP policies with administrator approval

Answer

Assign DLP policies to specific users

Answer

Inherit the tenant-level DLP policy for all environments

Question 10

A sales team uses a Canvas app to track leads. Users report that the app loads slowly when accessing on mobile devices. Which component should be optimized to improve performance?

Accepted Answer

Optimize data source connections and queries. Optimizing data source connections and queries directly reduces the amount of data transferred and the number of round trips between the Canvas app and its data source (e.g., Dataverse, SharePoint, SQL). On mobile devices, network latency and bandwidth are often constrained, so inefficient queries (e.g., loading all records instead of using filters) cause significant slowdowns. This is the primary performance lever for Canvas apps, as per Microsoft's guidance on app optimization.

Answer

Update the app version number

Answer

Increase the app icon size

Answer

Change the app's background color
