AI-102 Practice Question: Implement knowledge mining and information extraction solutions

Answer choices

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

The indexer and skillset are in different Azure AI Search services.

The error 'No skillset was found with the name 'skillset-name'' indicates that the indexer cannot locate the skillset. The most likely cause is that the indexer and skillset are in different Azure AI Search services because skillsets are scoped to a specific search service and cannot be referenced across services. Option A (the indexer and skillset are in different Azure AI Search services) is correct. Option B is incorrect because while skillset names are case-sensitive, the error would likely be different if it were simply a typo or case mismatch. Option C is incorrect because the error is about the skillset, not the data source. Option D is incorrect because permission issues typically result in an authorization error, not a 'not found' error.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • The indexer and skillset are in different Azure AI Search services.

    Why this is correct

    Indexer references skillset by name; must be in same service.

  • The skillset name has a typo or is case-sensitive.

    Why it's wrong here

    Possible, but error says 'not found' suggests different service.

  • The indexer's data source is misconfigured.

    Why it's wrong here

    Data source issue would give different error.

  • The indexer does not have permission to access the skillset.

    Why it's wrong here

    Permissions would give access denied, not not found.
