Question 6

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 7

Which TWO are best practices for designing Power Automate flows in a production environment? (Select TWO.)

Accepted Answer

Use 'Configure Run After' to implement error handling.. Options B and E are correct. Using 'Configure Run After' allows you to specify actions to run based on the success, failure, or timeout of previous actions, which is essential for robust error handling in production flows. Option E, using secure inputs and outputs, prevents sensitive data from being displayed in flow run histories, protecting confidential information. Option A is incorrect because disabling logging would hinder troubleshooting and monitoring of production flows. Option C is incorrect because nesting 'Apply to each' actions can lead to performance degradation and throttling; instead, use parallel branches or optimized data processing. Option D is incorrect because hardcoding connection references reduces maintainability and security; use connection references stored in environments or Azure Key Vault for flexibility and security.

Answer

Disable flow logging to improve performance.

Answer

Nest Apply to each actions to handle large datasets.

Answer

Hardcode connection references for simplicity.

Question 8

Question 9

Contoso, Ltd. is a multinational company with a global sales team. They use Microsoft Power Apps to build a model-driven app for managing customer accounts and opportunities. The app uses Microsoft Dataverse as the data source. The sales team accesses the app on mobile devices while traveling. Recently, users have reported that the app is slow when loading large numbers of opportunities. The app has a custom page that displays a list of all opportunities without any filters. The page uses a gallery that loads all records at once. The app also uses several custom connectors to external systems, but the slowness is primarily observed when loading the opportunities list. The IT team has confirmed that the Dataverse environment is in the same region as the users, and network latency is not an issue. They need to improve the performance of the app. Which two actions should the IT team take? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Implement delegation in the gallery to filter data on the server. The correct answers are D and E. Implementing delegation in the gallery (D) ensures that filtering and sorting operations are performed server-side in Dataverse, reducing the amount of data transferred and improving load times. Adding a search box with a delegable filter (E) allows users to search for specific opportunities, and when the filter is delegable, the filtering happens on the server, further reducing the data retrieved. Option A is incorrect because disabling real-time synchronization with Microsoft Entra ID would not address data loading performance and could cause authentication issues. Option B is incorrect because simply replacing a model-driven app with a canvas app does not inherently improve performance; both app types can be optimized, and the issue is with data loading, not the app type. Option C is incorrect because increasing Dataverse storage capacity does not affect query execution speed; it only increases available storage space.

Answer

Disable real-time synchronization with Microsoft Entra ID

Answer

Replace the model-driven app with a canvas app

Answer

Increase the Dataverse storage capacity

Question 10

Which TWO of the following are capabilities of Power Apps? (Choose TWO.)

Accepted Answer

Create custom business apps with low-code. Options B and D are correct. Power Apps enables users to create custom business applications with low-code or no-code development, and these apps can be embedded directly into Microsoft Teams for easy access. Option A is incorrect because building interactive dashboards and reports is a capability of Power BI, not Power Apps. Option C is incorrect as running serverless code in the cloud is done via Azure Functions. Option E is incorrect as workflow automation is the domain of Power Automate.

Answer

Build interactive dashboards and reports

Answer

Run serverless code in the cloud

Answer

Automate workflows and processes

Question 11

Which TWO actions can a Power Platform administrator perform in the Power Platform Admin Center to manage environments?

Accepted Answer

Backup an environment. The Power Platform Admin Center provides a built-in backup feature that allows administrators to create manual backups of environments. This is essential for disaster recovery and data preservation before making significant changes. Backups can be triggered on-demand and are stored for a limited retention period.

Answer

Increase the storage limit of an environment

Answer

Change an environment from production to sandbox

Answer

Add a custom connector to an environment

Question 12

A company deploys a model-driven app that uses a custom table 'Project' with a status choice column. The app includes a business rule that shows a warning message when the status is set to 'Completed' but the 'End Date' is blank. The business rule works on the main form but not when records are updated via a Power Automate flow. Which THREE actions should the administrator take to enforce the rule regardless of update method?

Accepted Answer

Use a synchronous plug-in that runs on the Update message of the Project table.. A synchronous plug-in runs on the Update message of the Project table, executing immediately within the database transaction. This ensures the validation logic (checking that End Date is not blank when Status is 'Completed') is enforced regardless of the update method, including Power Automate flows, which bypass client-side business rules.

Answer

Configure an asynchronous workflow that runs after the update.

Answer

Modify the business rule to run on all forms.

Question 13

Which TWO are benefits of using Microsoft Power Platform for business process automation?

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

They have built-in role-based security. Options B, C, and D are correct. Model-driven apps are built on Microsoft Dataverse, have built-in role-based security, and are responsive across devices. Option A is incorrect because model-driven apps do not require custom formulas; they use declarative logic and business rules. Option E is incorrect because model-driven apps work on both web browsers and mobile devices.

Answer

They require custom formulas for business logic

Answer

They can only be used on web browsers

Question 19

Which TWO are valid ways to share a canvas app with other users in your organization? (Select two.)

Accepted Answer

Add users to a security group that has been granted access to the app. Adding users to a security group that has been granted access to the app is a valid way to share. Option C is correct because sharing the app directly with individual users or Microsoft Entra ID groups is the primary sharing method. Option A is wrong because the app must be published before sharing a link. Option D is wrong because Power Apps does not generate public URLs for sharing. Option E is wrong because exporting as a .msapp file is for transferring between environments, not for sharing with users.

Answer
