PL-900 Timed Practice Test 2 — 10 Questions

Question 1

A company wants to allow customers to view their order history on a Power Pages site. Customers must log in to see their own orders only. Which feature should be used to enforce data security?

Accepted Answer

Configure entity permissions for the Orders table and assign to a web role.. Entity permissions in Power Pages allow you to define granular access rights (Create, Read, Update, Delete) for specific Dataverse tables. By configuring entity permissions for the Orders table and assigning them to a web role that is associated with the authenticated user, you ensure that customers can only see their own orders based on the relationship between the Contact record and the Orders table. This is the correct approach because it enforces row-level security tied to the authenticated user's identity.

Answer

Enable column-level security on the Orders table.

Answer

Use a custom authentication provider to filter data.

Answer

Set page permissions to require authentication.

Question 2

A business user wants to build a Power Apps app without writing any code. Which type of app should they create?

Accepted Answer

Canvas app. Canvas apps are designed for low-code/no-code development, allowing business users to create custom applications by dragging and dropping elements onto a canvas and connecting them to data sources without writing code. This aligns directly with the user's requirement to build an app without coding.

Answer

Power Automate flow

Answer

Power Pages site

Answer

Model-driven app

Question 3

A sales team needs to create a custom app to track leads and manage follow-ups, but they have no coding experience. Which Power Platform tool should they use?

Accepted Answer

Power Apps. Power Apps (Option D) is the correct tool because it enables users with no coding experience to build custom apps using a low-code, drag-and-drop interface. The sales team can create a lead-tracking app with forms, galleries, and data connections to Microsoft Dataverse or SharePoint without writing traditional code.

Answer

Power Pages

Answer

Power BI

Answer

Question 4

A company wants to build a custom app to track inventory across multiple warehouses. The app must use existing data from a SQL Server database and provide real-time updates. Which Power Platform component should they use to connect the app to the data source?

Accepted Answer

Power Apps with a connector. Power Apps connectors provide pre-built integration with SQL Server, enabling the app to read and write data directly from the existing database. This allows real-time updates by using the SQL Server connector, which supports live queries and triggers without requiring data migration.

Answer

Microsoft Dataverse

Answer

Power BI

Answer

Power Automate

Question 5

A company uses Power BI to visualize sales data from Dynamics 365. The sales team needs to see real-time updates when a deal is closed. Which Power Platform component should be used to trigger a notification when a deal is won?

Accepted Answer

Power Automate flow. Power Automate can trigger a flow when a deal is won in Dynamics 365 (e.g., using the 'When a record is updated' trigger filtered to the 'Close Date' field or status change to 'Won'). The flow can then send a real-time notification (e.g., email, Teams message, or push notification) to the sales team, meeting the requirement for immediate updates without manual intervention.

Power BI real-time dashboard

Answer

Copilot Studio chatbot

Answer

Power Apps canvas app

Question 6

You need to create a flow that sends an email notification when a new file is added to a OneDrive for Business folder. Which trigger should you use?

Accepted Answer

When a file is created (OneDrive for Business). The requirement specifies a OneDrive for Business folder, and the 'When a file is created (OneDrive for Business)' trigger is the only one that directly monitors a OneDrive for Business location for new file additions. This trigger uses the OneDrive for Business connector, which is designed to work with the Microsoft Graph API for OneDrive for Business, and it fires specifically when a new file is created, not modified.

Answer

When a file is created (SharePoint)

Answer

When a file is modified (OneDrive for Business)

Answer

When a file is created (OneDrive)

Question 7

A company wants to build a custom copilot for internal IT support. The copilot should answer common questions and escalate to a human agent if needed. Which component should they use?

Accepted Answer

Microsoft Copilot Studio. Microsoft Copilot Studio is the correct choice because it is specifically designed to build custom copilots (formerly Power Virtual Agents) that can handle conversational Q&A and seamlessly escalate to a human agent when the copilot cannot resolve the issue. This directly matches the requirement for an internal IT support copilot that answers common questions and escalates to a human agent.

Answer

Power Automate

Answer

Power BI

Answer

Power Apps

Question 8

A Power Apps canvas app that uses Dataverse is being migrated from a development environment to a production environment. After migration, the app fails to load data. The developer checks the connection and finds that the Dataverse connector is pointing to the development environment. What should the developer do?

Accepted Answer

Update the connection reference in the app to use production Dataverse. The app's connection references must be updated to point to the production Dataverse environment. Option B is correct. Option A is wrong because re-importing the solution alone does not update connection references. Option C is wrong because the app is already in production. Option D is wrong because changing environment variables is not the direct fix for hard-coded connections.

Answer

Re-import the solution into the production environment

Answer

Delete the app and recreate it in production

Answer

Modify the environment variable values for the connection

Question 9

A sales team needs an app to track customer interactions. The app should display a list of accounts, and when an account is selected, show related opportunities and contacts. Which type of app is best suited?

Accepted Answer

Model-driven app. (Model-driven app) is correct because model-driven apps are designed for data-centric applications with built-in relationships and navigation, making them ideal for scenarios where users need to view and interact with related records such as accounts, opportunities, and contacts. Option A (Canvas app) is wrong because canvas apps start with a blank canvas and require manual coding of relationships and navigation, which is less efficient for this use case. Option B (Power BI dashboard) is wrong because Power BI is for analytics and reporting, not for building transactional apps. Option C (Chatbot in Power Virtual Agents) is wrong because chatbots are designed for conversational interactions, not for displaying and navigating a list of records with related data.

Answer

Canvas app

Answer

Power BI dashboard

Answer

Chatbot in Power Virtual Agents

Question 10

It provides a common data schema, built-in business logic, role-based security, and seamless integration with the Power Platform, making it the centralized repository for business data.
