During the technical architecture design phase, a developer must document the components that will be included in a Power Platform solution. Which activity is part of identifying solution components?

Defining the project timeline and milestones

Determining the licensing cost of each component

Listing the tables, flows, and apps that will be part of the solution

Creating a training plan for end users

Your organization has a Power Apps portal that allows external partners to submit support tickets. The portal uses Azure AD B2C for authentication. You need to ensure that partners can only view and edit tickets they have created, while internal support agents can view all tickets. What should you configure?

Create a security role for partners with read and write privileges on the ticket table, and set the table's access mode to 'Parent'.

Configure the portal's web role to grant 'Read' and 'Write' permissions to the ticket table, and enable 'Entity Permission' with 'Contact' scope.

Create a security role for partners with read and write privileges on the ticket table, and use owner-based access so users only see their own records.

Use Power Automate to share each ticket with the creating partner after creation.

A developer is analyzing an existing Power Platform environment to plan a new solution. What is the primary purpose of identifying solution components?

To create a data migration plan

To calculate the total number of users who will access the system

To assign security roles to each user

To determine the implementation approach for each required component

A company is designing a Power Platform solution that includes a model-driven app, a Power Automate flow, and a custom connector. The solution will be used by multiple departments, each with different data access needs. What should you do to ensure the solution components are properly managed and secured?

Create separate solutions for each department and deploy them independently.

Use environment variables to configure the connector and rely on business units for security.

Use a single solution and grant all users the same security role.

Add all components to a single solution and use security roles to control access.

You are designing a solution that needs to combine data from Dataverse and an external SQL Server database. The solution must allow users to view and edit data from both sources in a single model-driven app. What should you do?

Build a custom canvas app that connects to both data sources directly.

Import the SQL Server data into a standard Dataverse table using a dataflow.

Use Power BI to display the data from both sources.

Create a virtual table for the SQL Server data and use it in the model-driven app alongside Dataverse tables.
