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
✓
Add a PCF (Power Apps component framework) control
PCF (Power Apps component framework) controls can be embedded in Power Pages to display custom charts that automatically update when the underlying Dataverse data changes. Option B (Power BI report) requires a separate Power BI license and usually needs manual refresh or a live connection, which may not be as seamless as a PCF control. Option C (Excel Online iframe) cannot connect directly to Dataverse for dynamic updates. Option D (chart web template) is a legacy feature that lacks the interactive and automatic-update capabilities of a PCF control.
