A cloud flow updates a Dataverse record and then calls an external API. The API call is critical and must be retried if it fails. You have configured the HTTP action with a retry policy of 3 retries. However, the flow still fails if the API returns an HTTP 500 error after all retries. You need to send an email notification when the API call fails after all retries. What should you do?

Add a 'Scope' action around the HTTP action and configure the scope's 'Configure run after' to run the email on failure.

Add a 'Send an email' action after the HTTP action and configure 'Configure run after' to run when the HTTP action has 'hasFailed' or 'hasTimedOut'.

Increase the retry policy to 5 retries to ensure the API call succeeds.

Add a 'Condition' action after the HTTP action to check if the status code equals 500, and then send an email.

A Power Automate cloud flow is triggered when a row is added to a Dataverse table. The flow should only run when the row's 'Priority' field is set to 'High'. You need to minimize unnecessary flow runs and avoid using extra actions. What should you configure?

Configure the Dataverse trigger to only fire when the Priority field is modified.

Use a 'Filter array' action on the trigger outputs to select only rows with Priority 'High'.

Add a Condition action as the first step to check the Priority field and terminate the flow if not 'High'.

Add a trigger condition that checks if the Priority field equals 'High'.

In a Dataverse trigger, where do you configure trigger filters?

In the flow's 'Run only users' settings

In the 'Edit' mode of the flow canvas

In the trigger's 'Settings' tab

Which of the following is a best practice for managing sensitive outputs in Power Automate?

Avoid using outputs that contain sensitive data altogether

Mark any output that contains secrets or personal data as sensitive

Use the 'Compose' action to output sensitive data without marking it

Store sensitive outputs in plain text in a SharePoint list

What is the purpose of the 'Configure run after' setting in Power Automate?

To set a delay before an action runs

To specify the user account that runs the action

To specify which actions should run after a previous action fails, succeeds, or is skipped

To define the order of actions in a flow
