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
✓
The filtered Dataverse Accounts data source
The gallery's Items property uses the Filter function on SalesData, which is defined as a Dataverse entity 'accounts'. This means the data source is a filtered version of the Accounts entity (only records where status is 'Active'). Option B is incorrect because there is no SQL Server table referenced. Option C is incorrect because SalesData is a Dataverse entity, not a SharePoint list. Option D is incorrect because the gallery uses a filtered set, not the raw, unfiltered Accounts entity.
