PL-900 Practice Question: Describe the business value of Microsoft Power Platform
Which THREE components are part of Microsoft Power Platform? (Choose three.)
⚠ Common exam trap
Candidates often mistakenly include Dynamics 365 or Microsoft Copilot Studio as core components. However, the PL-900 exam defines the core components as Power BI, Power Apps, and Power Automate. Dynamics 365 is a separate application built on Power Platform, and Copilot Studio is an AI tool that can integrate but is not a core component.
