PL-900 Power Automate Practice Question
A sales team wants to track their deals in a shared workspace without using Excel. They need a solution that can be customized quickly and accessed from mobile devices. Which Power Platform component should you recommend?
⚠ Common exam trap
The trap is that candidates might choose Power Automate because it is a core Power Platform component and can send notifications or update lists, but the requirement is specifically for a shared workspace to track deals. Microsoft Lists directly provides that workspace, while Power Automate only automates processes around it.

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Microsoft Lists
Microsoft Lists is the correct recommendation because it is a shared workspace specifically designed for tracking information like deals. It is highly customizable with columns, views, and rules, and is accessible from mobile devices through the Microsoft Lists mobile app. While it is not a core Power Platform service, it is often integrated with Power Platform solutions and is the best fit for the described scenario. Power Automate is for workflows, not for providing a shared workspace.
