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
✓
Excel Online (Business) connector
The correct connector for accessing an Excel spreadsheet stored in OneDrive for Business is the Excel Online (Business) connector. This connector enables Power Apps to read and write data from Excel files hosted in OneDrive or SharePoint. Option A (Dataverse) is a database service, not for file storage. Option B (OneDrive for Business connector) is for file and folder operations, but not for reading Excel data directly. Option C (SharePoint connector) is for SharePoint lists and libraries, but the question specifies OneDrive storage, not SharePoint. Therefore, Option D is correct.
