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
✓
Set the page permission to 'Authenticated Users' and use a web role to grant access.
Power Pages uses web roles to control access to pages and data. Column-level permissions are not available, and custom code is insecure. Disabling anonymous access alone doesn't restrict by role.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Write a custom JavaScript to check user roles and hide the data.
Why it's wrong here
Client-side security can be bypassed and is not secure.
- ✗
Disable anonymous access and allow all authenticated users.
Why it's wrong here
This would grant access to any authenticated user, not just specific roles.
- ✗
Configure column-level security in Dataverse to restrict the columns.
Why it's wrong here
Column-level security is not directly exposed in Power Pages.
- ✓
Set the page permission to 'Authenticated Users' and use a web role to grant access.
Why this is correct
Web roles allow granular control over who sees data.
