AI-102 Practice Question: Implement knowledge mining and information extraction solutions
Which THREE actions should you take when designing a custom skill for an Azure AI Search enrichment pipeline? (Choose three.)
⚠ Common exam trap
Watch out — candidates often confuse the 2-minute timeout often associated with Azure Functions (default 230 seconds) with the 30-second timeout enforced by Azure AI Search for custom skills, leading them to incorrectly select Option C.

Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Define input and output parameters in the skillset definition
Custom skills in Azure AI Search require explicit input and output parameter definitions in the skillset JSON. These parameters map data from the enrichment pipeline into the skill and return results back, enabling the search service to pass context (e.g., document fields) and consume the skill's output for further indexing.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Define input and output parameters in the skillset definition
Why this is correct
The skillset must specify inputs and outputs.
- ✓
Handle errors in the skill and return appropriate status codes
Why this is correct
Error handling is critical for pipeline reliability.
- ✗
Ensure the skill executes within 2 minutes
Why it's wrong here
Skills have a timeout; long-running skills may fail.
- ✗
Write the skill in a language supported by Azure AI Search
Why it's wrong here
Any language is acceptable as long as it exposes a REST API.
- ✓
Deploy the skill as an Azure Function or other HTTP endpoint
Why this is correct
Custom skills must be accessible via HTTPS.
