PL-900 Practice Question: Manage the Microsoft Power Platform environment
A large enterprise uses Power Platform with multiple environments. They need to enforce a policy that blocks all Canvas apps from using the 'Twitter' connector, but only in the 'Production' environment. What should the administrator do?
⚠ Common exam trap
It's easy for candidates to assume tenant-level policies are the only option or that connectors can be disabled directly in the admin center, but the correct approach requires understanding that environment-level DLP policies provide the necessary granularity.
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 an environment-level DLP policy for the Production environment and set 'Twitter' to 'Blocked'
Environment-level DLP policies allow administrators to apply connector restrictions to specific environments, such as blocking the 'Twitter' connector only in 'Production' while leaving it available in other environments. This granular control is essential for enforcing governance without affecting development or testing environments.
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 at the tenant level and set the 'Twitter' connector to 'Blocked'
Why it's wrong here
This would block the connector in all environments, not just Production.
- ✗
Disable the 'Twitter' connector in the Power Platform admin center for the Production environment
Why it's wrong here
Connectors cannot be disabled per environment from the admin center.
- ✓
Create an environment-level DLP policy for the Production environment and set 'Twitter' to 'Blocked'
Why this is correct
An environment-level DLP policy can block specific connectors in a specific environment.
- ✗
Use the 'Set Connector' API to disable the connector for the Production environment
Why it's wrong here
There is no such API to disable a connector per environment.
