PL-900 Practice Exam 60 — 20 Questions

Question 1

A Power Automate flow is designed to copy files from OneDrive for Business to a SharePoint document library. Some files fail to copy because the file name contains special characters. Which action should be added to the flow to handle this?

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

Accepted Answer

Add a 'Compose' action to replace special characters. The 'Compose' action can be used to sanitize file names by replacing special characters. Option A is wrong because 'Apply to each' iterates over items but does not modify names. Option B is wrong because 'Condition' checks conditions but does not transform data. Option D is wrong because 'Scope' groups actions but does not handle errors.

Answer

Add an 'Apply to each' loop

Answer

Add a 'Condition' to check for special characters

Answer

Add a 'Scope' action to manage the operation

Question 2

Your organization uses Power Automate to send a welcome email to new employees. The flow is triggered when a new row is added to a Dataverse table named 'NewEmployees'. The flow retrieves the manager's email from a related table and sends an email via Outlook. Managers are reporting that they receive the welcome email but it contains placeholder text instead of the employee's name. The flow runs successfully. What is the most likely cause?

Accepted Answer

The dynamic content token for the employee name is not correctly inserted in the email body. If the email body uses a dynamic content token that is not mapped correctly, the flow will output the token name as placeholder text. Option A is wrong because the trigger is working (flow runs). Option B is wrong because the email is sent successfully. Option D is wrong because there is no mention of permissions.

Answer

The trigger is not firing for all new employees

Answer

The Outlook connection is expired

Answer

The Dataverse table does not have the necessary permissions

Question 3

A Power Pages site has multiple content pages and uses a custom theme. The marketing team wants to change the site's header logo and primary color. What is the most efficient method to apply these changes?

Accepted Answer

Use Power Pages Studio to update the site's theme and logo.. Power Pages Studio provides a no-code interface to modify site styling, including logo and theme colors. Editing CSS in Visual Studio Code is complex and may break the site. Using the Portal Management app is possible but less intuitive. Modifying the Liquid template is unnecessary.

Answer

Navigate to the Portal Management app and update the site settings.

Answer

Edit the site's CSS file directly in Visual Studio Code.

Answer

Modify the Liquid template that renders the header.

Question 4

A Power Pages site uses a custom form to capture customer feedback. The form should send an email notification to the support team when a new submission is made. What is the recommended way to achieve this?

Accepted Answer

Create a Power Automate flow triggered when a new row is added to the Dataverse table.. Power Automate can be triggered from a Dataverse table event when a new record is created, and send email. Using a custom workflow or Business Rule is less flexible. JavaScript is not reliable for server-side actions.

Answer

Configure a Business Rule on the form to send an email.

Answer

Use a custom JavaScript to call an email API.

Answer

Set up a classic workflow in Dataverse.

Question 5

You are designing a Power Pages site for a university to allow students to view their grades. Each student should only see their own records in the Grades table. The Grades table has a lookup column to the Contacts table. What table permission configuration should you use?

Accepted Answer

Set the table permission scope to 'Contact' and assign the permission to the student web role.. Contact scope restricts records where the Contact lookup matches the logged-in user's contact.

Answer

Set the table permission scope to 'Global' and restrict using a view.

Answer

Create a separate web role for each student.

Answer

Use a Power Automate flow to filter records.

Question 6

Refer to the exhibit. A Power Pages site configuration defines a custom table. The site needs to display a list of orders sorted by the total in descending order. What must be done?

Accepted Answer

Set the 'Sort Column' property of the list component to 'cr5f3_total' and direction to descending.. The list component in Power Pages can be configured with a default sort order using the 'Sort Column' property. The exhibit shows a table definition; the sort order is not set here. Adding an index is unnecessary for sorting in a list view. Changing the column data type or using C# code is not relevant.

Answer

Write a custom C# plugin to sort the data.

Answer

Change the column data type to integer for sorting.

Answer

Add an index on the cr5f3_total column in Dataverse.

Question 7

A user wants to build a chatbot to answer common IT support questions, such as password reset and software installation steps. Which Power Platform tool should they use?

Accepted Answer

Power Virtual Agents. Power Virtual Agents (D) is the correct tool because it is specifically designed to create conversational AI chatbots without requiring coding. It enables users to build a bot that can handle common IT support queries like password resets and software installation steps by defining topics, trigger phrases, and dialog flows, integrating with backend systems via Power Automate or connectors.

Answer

Power Apps

Answer

Question 8

Match each Microsoft Power Platform component to its primary purpose.

Accepted Answer

Power Apps: Build custom business applications with low-code/no-code. Power Apps builds custom apps, Power Automate automates workflows, Power BI analyzes data, and Power Virtual Agents creates chatbots. Common confusions include swapping these definitions.

Answer

Power BI: Create conversational AI chatbots

Answer

Power Virtual Agents: Visualize and analyze data

Question 9

A company uses Dynamics 365 Sales and wants to automatically send a follow-up email to a customer when an opportunity is marked 'Closed Won'. They need a solution that requires no custom code. What should they use?

Accepted Answer

Power Automate. Power Automate is the correct choice because it provides a no-code workflow automation platform that can trigger a flow when an opportunity's status changes to 'Closed Won' in Dynamics 365 Sales. It uses a prebuilt connector to Dynamics 365 to send an email via the Office 365 Outlook connector, requiring no custom code or development effort.

Answer

Power Apps

Answer

Power BI

Answer

Power Virtual Agents

Question 10

An organization is preparing for a Power Platform rollout. They need to ensure that only licensed users can create new environments, and that environment creation is audited. Additionally, they want to restrict which connectors can be used in production environments. Which THREE capabilities should they use?

Accepted Answer

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies. Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies allow administrators to block or restrict specific connectors (e.g., HTTP, custom connectors) in production environments, ensuring sensitive data is not exposed through unauthorized integrations. This directly addresses the requirement to restrict which connectors can be used in production environments.

Answer

Power Virtual Agents bot

Answer

Power Apps mobile app

Question 11

Which THREE of the following are core components of Microsoft Power Platform? (Select three.)

Accepted Answer

Power Automate. Power Automate is a core component of Microsoft Power Platform because it provides low-code workflow automation capabilities that integrate seamlessly with other Power Platform services like Power Apps and Power BI. It enables users to create automated workflows across hundreds of connectors without writing code, directly supporting the platform's goal of empowering citizen developers.

Answer

Azure Logic Apps

Answer

Dynamics 365

Question 12

Refer to the exhibit. A Power Platform administrator creates a DLP policy as shown. What is the effect of this policy?

Accepted Answer

Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn connectors are blocked tenant-wide. The exhibit shows a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policy configured with the 'Social media' category set to 'Blocked' for all environments. This means the Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn connectors are explicitly blocked tenant-wide, preventing their use in any environment (production, sandbox, or default). Option C correctly identifies this outcome.

Answer

Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn connectors are allowed in all environments

Answer

All social media connectors are blocked in all environments

Answer

The policy only applies to production environments

Question 13

Refer to the exhibit. The environment 'Contoso Production' was created on January 15, 2023. You need to restore this environment to a state from January 20, 2023. What is the first step you must take?

Accepted Answer

Check if a backup from January 20, 2023, exists in the environment's backup list.. The first step in restoring a Power Platform environment to a specific past date is to verify that a backup exists for that date. Microsoft Power Platform automatically creates daily backups for production environments, but you must check the backup list to confirm that a backup from January 20, 2023, is available before proceeding with the restore operation.

Answer

Enable point-in-time restore in the environment settings.

Answer

Convert the environment to a sandbox environment.

Answer

Copy the environment to a new environment using the date parameter.

Question 15

A company is deploying Microsoft Power Platform to multiple departments. The security team requires that all environment creation be restricted to a specific group of administrators. Which action should the Power Platform administrator take?

Accepted Answer

Create a security group in Microsoft Entra ID that includes the allowed administrators.. To restrict environment creation to a specific group of administrators, the first step is to create a security group in Microsoft Entra ID that includes the allowed administrators (option A). The full solution also requires configuring the environment creation restriction in the Power Platform admin center tenant settings to allow only that security group, but among the provided options, only option A is correct. Option B is incorrect because disabling environment creation for all users is too restrictive and does not allow granular control. Option C is incorrect because the CoE Starter Kit is used for governance and monitoring, not for restricting environment creation. Option D is incorrect because the Environment Admin role grants administrative permissions within an environment but does not control who can create new environments.

Answer

Disable environment creation for all users in the Power Platform admin center.

Answer

Install the CoE Starter Kit and configure environment creation policies.

Answer

Assign the Environment Admin role to the security group in the Power Platform admin center.

Question 16

Which TWO components are required to create a model-driven app in Power Apps? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Dataverse table. Dataverse tables (Option B) are the fundamental data storage structure for model-driven apps. Every model-driven app must be built on top of at least one Dataverse table to provide the data schema, relationships, and security context that the app's views, forms, and dashboards rely on. Without a Dataverse table, the app has no data source to interact with.

Answer

AI Builder model

Answer

Power Automate flow

Answer

Power BI dashboard

Question 17

Drag and drop the steps to configure a Power Virtual Agents chatbot in the correct order.

Accepted Answer

Step 1: Create a new chatbot, Step 2: Define topics, Step 3: Add nodes to topics, Step 4: Test the chatbot, Step 5: Publish the chatbot. The correct sequence for configuring a Power Virtual Agents chatbot is: first create the bot, then define topics to handle user intents, add nodes to each topic to define the conversation flow, test the bot in the test pane to verify behavior, and finally publish the bot to make it available to users. Publishing before testing risks deploying unresolved issues.

Answer

Step 1: Create a new chatbot, Step 2: Add nodes to topics, Step 3: Define topics, Step 4: Test the chatbot, Step 5: Publish the chatbot

Answer

Step 1: Create a new chatbot, Step 2: Define topics, Step 3: Add nodes to topics, Step 4: Publish the chatbot, Step 5: Test the chatbot

Answer

Step 1: Create a new chatbot, Step 2: Test the chatbot, Step 3: Define topics, Step 4: Add nodes to topics, Step 5: Publish the chatbot

Question 18

A canvas app uses the formula shown in the exhibit to display the name of the most recently created account named 'Contoso'. The formula always shows 'No records found' even though there are accounts named 'Contoso'. What is the likely issue?

Accepted Answer

The column name in the formula uses a space and may be incorrect.. The formula references a column name with a space ('Account Name') without using single-quote delimiters. In Power Apps, when a column name contains a space, it must be enclosed in single quotes (e.g., 'Account Name') to be parsed correctly. Without the quotes, Power Apps interprets the space as a separator, causing the lookup to fail and the condition to evaluate as false, always falling back to 'No records found'.

Answer

The SortByColumns function is used incorrectly.

Answer

The First function cannot be used on a filtered result.

Answer

The formula is not delegable and returns incomplete data.

Question 19

A retail company wants to reduce the time store managers spend on manual inventory reporting. Currently, managers use paper forms and email to submit daily stock counts, which then need to be manually entered into a central system. This process is error-prone and delays replenishment. The company wants a solution that automates data entry, provides real-time dashboards, and allows managers to submit reports from their phones without installing any software on the phones. Which combination of Microsoft Power Platform tools should the company use?

Accepted Answer

Power Apps, Power Automate, and Power BI. The scenario requires a combination of Power Apps (for mobile-friendly report submission without installing software), Power Automate (to automate data entry into the central system), and Power BI (to provide real-time dashboards). Power Apps alone cannot automate data entry or provide dashboards; Power Automate alone cannot provide a mobile input interface or dashboards; Power BI alone cannot capture data or automate workflows. Only the trio covers all requirements: mobile input, automated processing, and real-time visualization.

Answer

Power Automate only

Answer

Power Apps only

Answer

Power BI only

Question 20

A company wants to build a custom app that allows employees to submit expense reports from their mobile devices. The app must be easy to customize and deploy without writing code. Which type of Power App should they use?

Accepted Answer

Canvas app. Canvas apps allow building custom, code-free apps that can run on mobile devices. Model-driven apps are more data-centric and require more configuration, while Power Pages is for external websites and Power Automate is for workflows.

Answer

Power Automate

Answer

Power Pages

Answer
