Microsoft Microsoft Certifications PL-400 Questions & Answers

• Question 271:

  A company implementsDynamics 365 Customer Service. The company deploys synchronous plug-ins for the PreOperation and PostOperation stages on create and for the PostOperation stage on update for processing different case type.

  Users experience errors when updating cases. The plug-in trace log files show that the PostOperation plug-in update of case times out after two minutes.

  You perform basic testing and discover that this plug-in is triggered on every update of a case. You examine the code and discover that the plug-in retrieves all columns for the updated case record performing its work.

  You need to reduce the number of errors. You need to achieve this goal with the test amount of changes.

  Solution: In the Plug-in Registration tool, set filtering attributes on the plug-in to only Case Type filed.

  Does the solution meet the goal?

  A. Yes

  B. No

  Correct Answer: B

  A university implements Dynamics 365 Sales. Several departments use opportunity records to bid for funding for projects within their own departments. You configure the system to ensure that each department can only work on their own

  records.

  Employees in multiple departments often need to work together on an opportunity. Employees report that they are not able to see opportunities from other departments.

  You need to ensure that employees from more than one department can work on the same opportunities when necessary.

  Solution: Use position hierarchy security and define the two departments as positions.

  Does the solution meet the goal?

  A. Yes

  B. No

  Correct Answer: A

  Two security models can be used for hierarchies, the Manager hierarchy and the Position hierarchy. The Position hierarchy allows data access across business units. If you are a financial organization, you may prefer the Manager hierarchy model, to prevent managers' accessing data outside of their business units. However, if you are a part of a customer service organization and want the managers to access service cases handled in different business units, the Position hierarchy may work better for you.

  Note: The hierarchy security model is an extension to the existing security models that use business units, security roles, sharing, and teams. It can be used in conjunction with all other existing security models. The hierarchy security offers a more granular access to records for an organization and helps to bring the maintenance costs down.

• Question 273:

  You are creating an integration that uses an Azure function to create records in the Common Data Service when leads are submitted from your company website.

  You create and configure a Common Data Service application user.

  You do not have administrator access to the Common Data Service environment you are using for access to Azure Active Directory. Company policy dictates that service accounts must be used for integrations, and integrations must not be

  granted privileges beyond what is needed.

  You need to recommend actions that an administrator should perform to configure access for the Azure Function.

  Which three actions should you perform? Each correct selection presents part of the solution.

  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  A. Create an application registration in Azure Active Directory.

  B. Assign the system administrator security role to the application user.

  C. Assign the Power Platform administrator role to the application user in Azure Active Directory.

  D. Create a new security role with the minimum required permissions and assign to the application user.

  E. Grant the application delegated permissions to the Dynamics CRM API in Azure Active Directory.

  F. Deploy Azure B2B guest permissions to the application user.

  Correct Answer: ADE

• Question 274:

  You create a Power Virtual Agents chatbot in an environment named Environment1. A colleague creates a Power Automate flow in the default solution in the default environment.

  The chatbot in Environment1 does not recognize the flow in the default environment.

  You need to ensure the chatbot can access the flow.

  Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.

  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  A. Add the Power Automate flow to a solution in Environment1.

  B. Send a copy of the Power Automate flow from the default environment.

  C. Add the Power Automate flow to a solution in the default environment.

  D. Export the solution from the default environment and import the solution into Environment1.

  E. Share the Power Automate flow from the default environment.

  Correct Answer: AE

  E: The flow needs to be shared as it was created by another person.

  A: To be available to your bots, flows must be stored in a solution in Power Automate. If you do not want to use the Default Solution for this purpose, you can move your flows to another solution. Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-virtual-agents/environments-first-run-experience

• Question 275:

  Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution.

  After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen.

  A Common Data Service (CDS) environment has two custom entities named Building code and Work item. Building code has a code date custom field and Work item has an elapsed time custom field. Construction workers use a consolidated

  custom form with data from both entities to fill.in their daily work items.

  A JavaScript library is used with these custom entities and fields to apply complex logic.

  You need to ensure that the JavaScript library continues to function as originally designed if other developers expand the environment.

  Solution: In form properties of the consolidated form, add the JavaScript library in the events tab and add the two custom fields to the dependent fields section of the non-event dependencies tab.

  Does the solution meet the goal?

  A. Yes

  B. No

  Correct Answer: B

  Instead, in the JavaScript library, add Building code with Code date and Work item with Elapsed time in the dependencies tab.

• Question 276:

  A company uses Common Data Service rollup fields to calculate insurance exposure and risk profiles for customers.

  Users report that the system does not update values for the rollup fields when new insurance policies are written.

  You need to recalculate the value of the rollup fields immediately after a policy is created.

  What should you do?

  A. Create new fields on the customer entity for insurance exposure and risk. Write a workflow process that is triggered when a new policy record is created to calculate the sum of values from policy records.

  B. Create new calculated fields on the customer entity for insurance exposure and risk. Configure the formula to calculate the sum of values from policy records.

  C. Change the frequency of the Calculate Rollup Field recurring job from every hour to every five minutes.

  D. Create new fields on the customer entity for insurance exposure and risk. Write a plug-in that is triggered whenever a new policy is created.

  Correct Answer: D

  In case you want to calculate Rollup field immediately whenever child record gets created, updated or deleted, you can write custom C# plugin or custom workflow activity and use SDK message “CalculateRollupFieldRequest”.

• Question 280:

  You are building a custom application in Azure to process resumes for the HR department.

  The app must monitor submissions of resumes.

  You need to parse the resumes and save contact and skills information into the Common Data Service.

  Which mechanism should you use?

  A. Power Automate

  B. Common Data Service plug-in

  C. Web API

  D. Custom workflow activity

  Correct Answer: A

  Improve operational efficiency with a unified view of business data by creating flows that use Dataverse (Common Data Service has been renamed to Microsoft Dataverse as of November 2020).

  For example, you can use Dataverse within Power Automate in these key ways:

  Create a flow to import data, export data, or take action (such as sending a notification) when data changes.

  Instead of creating an approval loop through email, create a flow that stores approval state in an entity, and then build a custom app in which users can approve or reject items.
