Your organization uses a shared semantic model that is consumed by multiple reports. You need to update the model to add a new measure, but you want to ensure that existing reports continue to work without changes. What should you do?

Create a copy of the shared model and update the copy, then ask report owners to switch to the copy.

Use the XMLA endpoint to update the model in place, but only if no reports are currently using it.

Add the new measure to the shared semantic model and republish it, then verify that existing reports still work.

Create a new semantic model and migrate all reports to it.

What is the purpose of a Power BI data source (.pbids) file?

To store the credentials for the data source

To define the visual layout of a report

To store the connection details for a data source so users can easily connect when creating a new report

To contain the data model and relationships

What is the XMLA endpoint in Power BI used for?

To programmatically manage and deploy semantic models

To connect to the Power BI service for report rendering

What is the primary benefit of using Power BI Desktop projects (.pbip) in analytics development?

They allow direct editing of the semantic model in the Power BI service

They compress the report data to reduce storage costs

They enable version control and collaboration by storing model and report definitions as text files

They automatically refresh the dataset on a schedule

You are responsible for deploying a Fabric solution that includes a dataflow and a semantic model. The dataflow refreshes data from an on-premises SQL Server, and the semantic model uses the dataflow as its source. You need to deploy the solution from development to test and then to production. What is the recommended order of deployment?

Deploy only the semantic model and manually recreate the dataflow in each stage.

Deploy both at the same time using the pipeline's deploy all option.

Deploy the dataflow first, then the semantic model.

Deploy the semantic model first, then the dataflow.
