Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Create the search service, then Define the index, then Create the custom skill, then Set up the indexer with the skillset, then Run the indexer.
Why this is correct
This order is correct because you must have a search service to host the index, define the index schema before attaching skills, create the custom skill to be referenced, configure the indexer with the skillset to process data, and finally run the indexer to execute the pipeline.
- ✗
Create the custom skill, then Define the index, then Create the search service, then Set up the indexer with the skillset, then Run the indexer.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because the search service must exist before defining the index or creating skills; also the index must be defined before the indexer references it.
- ✗
Define the index, then Create the search service, then Create the custom skill, then Set up the indexer with the skillset, then Run the indexer.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because the search service must be created first to host the index; you cannot define an index without an existing search service.
- ✗
Set up the indexer with the skillset, then Create the custom skill, then Define the index, then Create the search service, then Run the indexer.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because the indexer requires a defined index and skillset; the custom skill must exist before being added to a skillset, and the search service must exist before all components.
