create a ________________.
A. canvas app
B. model-driven app
C. portal app
D. power Automate cloud flow
E. power BI report

You are building a Power Automate cloud flow.
You need to access data in a third-party application that has a REST API. There is no connector
available.
What are two possible ways to achieve this goal? Each correct answer presents a complete
solution.
A. Apply a data policy.

B. Create a custom connector.
C. Run Postman.
Answer: B. Create a custom connector.

Objective: 2.2. Describe Connectors
Rationale: Power Automate can access publicly available APIs either by using a custom
connector or by using the HTTP connector to issue a GET or a PUT command.
Data policies block the use of connectors including custom connectors.
Postman is an application that allows you to evaluate APIs. You can use
Postman to import a collection file that you can use to create a custom
connector, but Postman itself cannot build a custom connector for Power
Automate.

To collaborate with colleagues to build Power BI reports and dashboards you should __________.
A. create a template app

B. share a dashboard
C. share a dataset
D. share a workspace
Answer: D. share a workspace

Objective: 3.3. Build a basic dashboard using Power BI
Rationale: Workspaces allow you to collaborate with colleagues to build reports and
dashboards. By sharing a workspace, you allow others to collaborate with you.
Sharing a report or dashboard only allows others to consume the report or
dashboard. Sharing a dataset allows others to create reports and dashboards
using the dataset in their own workspaces to which you may not have access.
Template apps distribute reports and dashboards to external users.

anonymous access to users. You can expose data held in
Microsoft Dataverse tables on a page in a portal app.
Canvas apps can connect to multiple data sources in the
same app. The other app types can only access data held in
Microsoft Dataverse.
Defining and enforcing consistent business processes is a
key feature of model-driven apps by using business process
flows.

A. personal chart
B. main form
C. classic workflow
D. public view
Answer: B. Main form

run.
The Control connector contains the Apply to Each action
that loops through a set of rows and create a total of all
expenses for the month.
The Approvals connector sends an approval notification by
email to the expenses approvers for sign off items such as
the total expenses.
The Data operation connection includes the Compose
action that you can use to create an array of data, such as
the list of approvers, which later steps in the flow can
reference.
