A multinational company uses Microsoft Entra ID for identity. They need to grant external partners access to specific SharePoint Online sites. The access must be time-limited and require approval from a resource owner. Which Microsoft Entra ID feature should they use?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Good practice is not just finding the correct option. The wrong answers often show the exact trap the exam wants you to fall into.
A
Best answer
Microsoft Entra ID Entitlement Management.
Entitlement Management enables creation of access packages with approvals and time-limited access. It is designed for governing external user access to resources like SharePoint Online.
B
Distractor review
Microsoft Entra ID B2C.
Microsoft Entra ID B2C is used for customer identity and access management in customer-facing applications. It is not designed for partner access to Office 365 resources.
C
Distractor review
Microsoft Entra ID Conditional Access.
Conditional Access enforces policies like MFA or location-based restrictions but does not provide the ability to request access or set expirations. It is a control mechanism, not an access management solution for external users.
D
Distractor review
Microsoft Entra ID Identity Protection.
Identity Protection detects risk and can automatically remediate, such as blocking sign-ins. It does not provide the access request and approval workflow needed.
Common exam trap
Common exam trap: NAT rules depend on direction and matching traffic
NAT is not only about the public address. The inside/outside interface roles and the ACL or rule that matches traffic are just as important.
Technical deep dive
How to think about this question
NAT questions usually test address translation, overload/PAT behaviour, static mappings and whether the right traffic is being translated. Read the interface direction and address terms carefully.
KKey Concepts to Remember
- Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.
- PAT allows many inside hosts to share one public address using ports.
- Inside local and inside global describe the private and translated addresses.
- NAT ACLs identify traffic for translation, not always security filtering.
TExam Day Tips
- Identify inside and outside interfaces first.
- Check whether the scenario needs static NAT, dynamic NAT or PAT.
- Do not confuse NAT matching ACLs with normal packet-filtering intent.

FAQ
Questions learners often ask
What does this AZ-305 question test?
Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.
What is the correct answer to this question?
The correct answer is: Microsoft Entra ID Entitlement Management. — Microsoft Entra ID Entitlement Management, part of Identity Governance, allows you to create access packages that include SharePoint sites, groups, or apps. External users can request access, and the package can require approvals and set an expiration date. This automates the lifecycle of external access. Microsoft Entra ID B2C is for customer-facing applications. Conditional Access and Identity Protection enforce policies but do not provide governed access requests.
