Question 772 of 976
Demonstrate the capabilities of Power Automate →mediumMultiple ChoiceObjective-mapped

Quick Answer

The correct answer is emails with 'Invoice' in the subject line. This is because the Power Automate trigger configuration includes a subjectFilter parameter set to 'Invoice', which instructs the flow to fire only when a new email’s subject contains that exact string, regardless of attachments or importance. On the Microsoft Power Platform Fundamentals PL-900 exam, this concept tests your understanding of trigger conditions and how filters narrow automation scope—a common trap is confusing subjectFilter with attachment-based triggers, which are controlled by separate boolean fields like includeAttachments and onlyWithAttachments. Remember the memory tip: “Subject filter is a string match, not a checkbox.”

PL-900 Practice Question: Demonstrate the capabilities of Power Automate

This PL-900 practice question tests your understanding of demonstrate the capabilities of power automate. This is a configuration task: choose the command set that satisfies every stated requirement. Small differences — like 'secret' vs 'password' or 'transport input ssh' vs 'all' — change whether the answer is correct. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.

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

✓

Emails with 'Invoice' in the subject line

Option D is correct because the subjectFilter requires 'Invoice' in the subject. Option A is wrong because includeAttachments is false. Option B is wrong because onlyWithAttachments is false. Option C is wrong because importance is 'Any'.

Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

    Related concept

    Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.

  • ✗

    Emails marked as high importance

    Why it's wrong here

  • ✗

    Any email with or without attachments

    Why it's wrong here

    onlyWithAttachments is false, but subjectFilter still applies.

Common exam traps

Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword

Many certification questions include familiar terms but test a specific constraint. Read the exact wording before choosing an answer that is generally true but wrong for this case.

Detailed technical explanation

How to think about this question

This question should be treated as a scenario, not a definition check. Identify the problem, the constraint and the best action. Then compare each option against those facts.

KKey Concepts to Remember

  • Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
  • Find the constraint that changes the correct option.
  • Eliminate answers that are true in general but not in this case.
  • Use explanations to understand the rule behind the answer.

TExam Day Tips

  • Underline the problem statement mentally.
  • Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
  • Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.

Key takeaway

Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

Real-world example

How this comes up in practice

A cloud solutions architect for a retail company is evaluating services for a new workload. The correct answer here reflects best practice for the specific scenario described — not a general cloud recommendation. Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option. Cloud exam questions reward reading the constraint carefully: the same technology can be right or wrong depending on the use case.
