Correct answer & explanation
✓
Navigate to Power Automate and create a new flow → Add a trigger or action that requires a connection to the third-party service → Sign in to the third-party service when prompted → Verify the connection is established and saved.
Connections are created when adding triggers/actions; sign-in is required before use.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Navigate to Power Automate and create a new flow → Add a trigger or action that requires a connection to the third-party service → Sign in to the third-party service when prompted → Verify the connection is established and saved.
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because connections are created contextually when adding triggers or actions that require them; the sign-in prompt appears during that step, and verifying ensures the connection is ready.
- ✗
Navigate to Power Automate and create a new flow → Sign in to the third-party service → Add a trigger or action that requires a connection → Verify the connection is established and saved.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because signing in before adding the trigger or action does not create the connection; the connection is only created and configured when you add the relevant trigger/action and are prompted to sign in.
- ✗
Navigate to Power Automate and go to Data > Connections → Create a new connection to the third-party service → Go back to create a new flow → Add a trigger or action that uses that connection.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because while it's possible to pre-create connections, the typical and intended method for most users is to create the connection as part of building the flow; moreover, the stem implies creating a connection while building a flow, not a separate administrative step.
- ✗
Add a trigger or action that requires a connection → Sign in to the third-party service → Navigate to Power Automate and create a new flow → Verify the connection is established and saved.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you must first create a new flow before adding triggers/actions; you cannot add a trigger or action without an existing flow.
