A canvas app has a screen with a gallery that displays records from a SharePoint list. The gallery has a search box that filters the records. The app is slow because the gallery loads all records at once. The business wants to improve performance by loading only the records that match the search. Which approach should you use?

Use a context variable to store the filtered records and update it on search

Use a global variable to store the filtered records and update it on search

Load all records into a collection and filter the collection

Set the gallery's Items property to Filter(SharePointList, SearchText in Title)

A canvas app uses a Patch function to update a Dataverse record. The update might fail if the user does not have write permission. The app must show a specific message if the update fails. Which approach should be used?

Use If(Patch(...) = Blank(), Notify("Update failed", NotificationType.Error))

Use Notify("Update failed", NotificationType.Error) after Patch(...)

Use IfError(Patch(...), Notify("Update failed", NotificationType.Error))

Use Set(result, Patch(...)); If(result = Blank(), Notify(...))

A canvas app has a button that triggers a Power Automate flow to create a record in a legacy system. The flow requires an input parameter that is the ID of the currently selected record in the app. The flow may take several seconds to complete. What should you do to pass the ID and handle the result?

Use the Navigate function to pass the ID to the flow

Use the Patch function to write the ID to a data source and have the flow read it

Use the Collect function to send the ID to the flow

Use the Run function with the ID as an argument and display the returned value

A sales team uses a canvas app to collect product orders offline. The app must temporarily store multiple order lines locally and then submit them to a Dataverse table when the user is back online. Which approach should the app use to store the order lines locally?

Write each line directly to the Dataverse table using Patch()

Use a context variable named OrderLines and update it with UpdateContext({OrderLines: ...})

Use a collection named OrderLines and add each line with Collect(OrderLines, ...)

Use a global variable named OrderLines and set it to a table with Set(OrderLines, ...)
