PL-900 Practice Question: Manage the Microsoft Power Platform environment
A company uses Microsoft Power Platform and wants to enforce data loss prevention (DLP) policies for all environments. The admin needs to block the use of SharePoint connector in all default environments. Which action should the admin take?
⚠ Common exam trap
It's easy for candidates to confuse DLP policies with other security controls like conditional access or connector sharing settings, mistakenly thinking those can block connector usage at the environment level.
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
✓
Create a DLP policy that applies to all environments and block the SharePoint connector.
DLP policies in Microsoft Power Platform are designed to control connector usage across environments. By creating a DLP policy that applies to all environments and blocking the SharePoint connector, the admin ensures that the connector is prohibited in every environment, including all default environments. This action directly enforces the data loss prevention requirement at the tenant level.
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 a DLP policy and assign it to the default environment only.
Why it's wrong here
This would only affect the default environment, not all environments.
- ✗
Use Microsoft Entra ID conditional access to block the SharePoint connector.
Why it's wrong here
Conditional access policies control authentication, not connector usage in Power Platform.
- ✓
Create a DLP policy that applies to all environments and block the SharePoint connector.
Why this is correct
A DLP policy can be scoped to all environments and block specific connectors.
- ✗
Configure connector sharing settings in Power Apps to block SharePoint.
Why it's wrong here
Connector sharing settings do not block connector usage; they control who can share apps.
