Updates to the exam
Our exams are updated periodically to reflect skills that are required to perform a role. We have included two versions of the Skills Measured objectives depending on when you are taking the exam.
We always update the English language version of the exam first. Some exams are localized into other languages, and those are updated approximately eight weeks after the English version is updated. While Microsoft makes every effort to update localized versions as noted, there may be times when the localized versions of an exam are not updated on this schedule. Other available languages are listed in the Schedule Exam section of the Exam Details webpage. If the exam isn’t available in your preferred language, you can request an additional 30 minutes to complete the exam.
Note
The bullets that follow each of the skills measured are intended to illustrate how we are assessing that skill. Related topics may be covered in the exam.
Note
Most questions cover features that are general availability (GA). The exam may contain questions on Preview features if those features are commonly used.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
A. AI Builder
B. SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS)
C. Dynamics 365
D. Power BI
Answer: BC
Explanation:
Scenario:
The reporting and analytics team must be able to create reports that include data from all facilities
and all workers.
Management reports must present an overview of the entire organization. Other reports may be
limited to specific offices.
B: Power Apps apps can include reports that provide useful business information to the user. These
reports are based on SQL Server Reporting Services and provide the same set of features that are
available for typical SQL Server Reporting Services reports.
C: Microsoft Dynamics 365 online and Model-Driven PowerApps offers several advanced reporting
options. Advanced reports are often necessary when business requirements demand complex
calculations, returning multiple data sets, grouping large sets of data based on rules, and retrieving
data from different data sources.
Incorrect Answers:
D: Scenario: Users cannot view Power BI reports within the Power Platform apps.
Note: Power BI enables data insights and better decision-making, while Power Apps enables
everyone to build and use apps that connect to business data. Using the Power Apps visual, you can
pass context-aware data to a canvas app, which updates in real time as you make changes to your report.
QUESTION 3

data that is sourced from an external database, such as an Azure SQL Database. Rows based on
virtual tables are available in all clients including custom clients developed using the Dataverse web services.
Scenario:
First Up uses an on-premises system to manage current and historical patient data including
medications and medical visits.
The company plans to reference historical data in the existing system. The records held in these
systems will not be migrated to the new solution except for medication information.
The solution must provide a worker appointment booking system that can access worker historical
job placement data.
First Up staff members must be able to view and update worker records. They must be able to see
current and historical job placement data on the same form in the new solution.
QUESTION 7

Each worker can have many security clearances, so need a 1:N relationship.
Scenario: The solution must support tracking of security clearance information for a worker including
the date, status, and certifying agency.
QUESTION 8
HOTSPOT
You need to recommend solutions for the organizations technical challenges.
What should you recommend? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Answer:
Explanation:
Box 1: Power Automate
Self-service purchase is available for Power Platform (Power BI, Power Apps, and Power Automate),
Project, and Visio.
Box 2: Azure Active Directory B2B
Scenario: First Up Consulting recruits information technology (IT) workers for temporary or
permanent positions at client companies.
Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) business-to-business (B2B) collaboration is a feature within
External Identities that lets you invite guest users to collaborate with your organization. With B2B
collaboration, you can securely share your company’s applications and services with guest users from
any other organization, while maintaining control over your own corporate data.
Work safely and securely with external partners, large or small, even if they don’t have Azure AD
or an IT department. A simple invitation and redemption process lets partners use their own
credentials to access your company’s resources.
Note, Scenario:
Workers must be able to sign into a portal by using their own email address. Workers must be
required to use a secure method of authentication to be able to view their data.
User security roles must be customized to ensure that users are able to interact only with the specific
data in which they need access.
Box 3: Dynamics 365 Field Service
Dynamics 365 Field Service functionality include:
An interactive schedule board helps dispatchers assign work orders to the best resources based on
location, availability, skill set, priority, and more. This is done via a manual drag-and-drop method, a
semi-automated scheduling assistant, or fully automated with Resource Scheduling Optimization.
The schedule board displays each resource–whether an employee, contractor, or equipment–and
their scheduled work orders. Resources and their assigned jobs are also displayed on a map along
with routes and traffic patterns in real time.
QUESTION 9
HOTSPOT
You need to recommend methods to resolve the organizations issues.
What should you recommend? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Answer:
Explanation:
Box 1: Add users to Microsoft 365.
Scenario: Users cannot view Power BI reports within the Power Platform apps.
Issue: The people you share with may see a locked tile in a dashboard, or a “Permission required”
message when they try to view a report.
Solution: You need to grant them permission to the underlying dataset.
Go to the All or the Datasets + dataflows tab in your content list.
Select More options (…) next to a dataset, then select Manage permissions.
Select Add user.
Enter the full email addresses for individuals, distribution groups, or security groups.
Select Grant access.
Box 2: Configure an on-premises data gateway.
Scenario: The company plans to reference historical data in the [on-premises] existing system. The
records held in these systems will not be migrated to the new solution except for medication
information.
The on-premises data gateway acts as a bridge to provide quick and secure data transfer between onpremises
data (data that isn’t in the cloud) and several Microsoft cloud services. These cloud services
include Power BI, PowerApps, Power Automate, Azure Analysis Services, and Azure Logic Apps. By
using a gateway, organizations can keep databases and other data sources on their on-premises
networks, yet securely use that on-premises data in cloud services.
QUESTION 10
DRAG DROP
You need to recommend methods for assigning security to each group of users.
What should you recommend? To answer, drag the appropriate methods to the correct groups of
users. Each method may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split
bar between panes or scroll to view content.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Answer:
Explanation:
Box 1: Power Platform Local Business Owner Team
Owner team: An owner team owns records and has security roles assigned to the team. A user’s
privileges can come from their individual security roles, those of the teams that they’re part of or the
ones they inherit. A team has full access rights on the records that the team owns. Team members
are added manually to the owner team.
Scenario: Employee authentication with the existing system is provided by an on-premises Active
Directory instance that is linked to Azure Active Directory.
Box 2: Azure Active Directory Security Group Team
An Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) group team. Similar to owner team, an Azure AD group team
can own records and can have security roles assigned to the team.
Note: The administration of app and data access for Microsoft Dataverse has been extended to allow
administrators to use their organization’s Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) groups to manage access
rights for licensed Dataverse users.
Box 3: Azure Active Directory B2B Guest Access
An Azure AD B2B collaboration user is an external user, typically from a partner organization, that
you invite to sign into your Azure AD organization using their own credentials. This B2B collaboration
user (also generally referred to as a guest user) can then access the apps and resources you want to
share with them. A user object is created for the B2B collaboration user in the same directory as your
employees. B2B collaboration user objects have limited privileges in your directory by default, and
they can be managed like employees, added to groups, and so on.
Scenario: Before First Up signs a contract to place workers at a client company, a member of the
audit team visits the company and interviews company management. Audit members use different
types of devices including Android and iOS devices. First Up has no plans to require the use of a
single type of device.
QUESTION 11
You need to investigate the canvas app functionality issues.
Which two tools can you use? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
A. App checker
B. Errors function
C. Solution checker
D. Power Platform admin center
Answer: AC
Explanation:
Scenario: The testing team reports that one of the canvas apps is not working as expected. An error
message displays as specific pages load.
A: The App checker is now available to help provide a clear list of formula issues in your app, and to
provide items to fix to make your app accessible. The App checker is an area that the PowerApps
team will continue to invest in, and build on in order help to make debugging, performance and best
practice decisions an easier and more guided experience.
C: With the solution checker feature, you can perform a rich static analysis check on your solutions
against a set of best practice rules and quickly identify these problematic patterns. After the check
completes, you receive a detailed report that lists the issues identified, the components and code
affected, and links to documentation that describes how to resolve each issue.
