Question #1 Topic 1
HOTSPOT -
You plan to create the Power BI model shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit tab.)
The data has the following refresh requirements:

✑ Customer must be refreshed daily.
✑ Date must be refreshed once every three years.
✑ Sales must be refreshed in near real time.
✑ SalesAggregate must be refreshed once per week.
You need to select the storage modes for the tables. The solution must meet the following requirements:
✑ Minimize the load times of visuals.
✑ Ensure that the data is loaded to the model based on the refresh requirements.
Which storage mode should you select for each table? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:
Correct Answer:
Box 1: Dual -
Customer should use the dual storage mode.
Dual: Tables with this setting can act as either cached or not cached, depending on the context of the query that's submitted to the Power BI
dataset. In some cases, you fulfill queries from cached data. In other cases, you fulfill queries by executing an on-demand query to the data
source.
Note: You set the Storage mode property to one of these three values: Import, DirectQuery, and Dual.
Box 2: Dual -
You can set the dimension tables (Customer, Geography, and Date) to Dual to reduce the number of limited relationships in the dataset, and
improve performance.
Box 3: DirectQuery -
Sales should use the DirectQuery storage mode.
DirectQuery: Tables with this setting aren't cached. Queries that you submit to the Power BI dataset‫ג‬€"for example, DAX queries‫ג‬€"and that
return data from
DirectQuery tables can be fulfilled only by executing on-demand queries to the data source. Queries that you submit to the data source use the
query language for that data source, for example, SQL.
Box 4: Import -
Import: Imported tables with this setting are cached. Queries submitted to the Power BI dataset that return data from Import tables can be
fulfilled only from cached data.

  _Jay_ Highly Voted  2 months, 3 weeks ago

Technically Yes, Correct
Dual (Composite) Mode:

The dual storage mode is between Import and DirectQuery. it is a hybrid approach, Like importing data, the dual storage mode caches the data
in the table. However, it leaves it up to Power BI to determine the best way to query the table depending on the query context.
1) Sales Must be Refreshed in Near real time so "Direct Query"

2) Sales Aggregate is once per week so "Import" (performance also required)
3) Both Date and Customer has relationship with both Sales and SalesAggregate tables so "Dual"
because to support performance for DirectQuery(Sales) and Import(SalesAggregate)

It should be dataset, because the case states there is already a report published and the datamodel contains measures. therefore and to be able
to use the measures in the datamodel you should connect to the existing dataset (which was created when you plublished the report) instead of
starting from scratch with the files in the SharePoint folder.

Question #4 Topic 1
You import two Microsoft Excel tables named Customer and Address into Power Query. Customer contains the following columns:
✑ Customer ID
✑ Customer Name
✑ Phone
✑ Email Address
✑ Address ID
Address contains the following columns:
✑ Address ID
✑ Address Line 1
✑ Address Line 2
✑ City
✑ State/Region
✑ Country
✑ Postal Code
Each Customer ID represents a unique customer in the Customer table. Each Address ID represents a unique address in the Address table.
You need to create a query that has one row per customer. Each row must contain City, State/Region, and Country for each customer.
What should you do?
A. Merge the Customer and Address tables.
B. Group the Customer and Address tables by the Address ID column.
C. Transpose the Customer and Address tables.
D. Append the Customer and Address tables.
Correct Answer: A
A merge queries operation joins two existing tables together based on matching values from one or multiple columns. You can choose to use

Question #5 Topic 1
HOTSPOT -
You have two Azure SQL databases that contain the same tables and columns.
For each database, you create a query that retrieves data from a table named Customer.
You need to combine the Customer tables into a single table. The solution must minimize the size of the data model and support scheduled
refresh in powerbi.com.
What should you do? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
Hot Area:
Correct Answer:
Box 1: Append Queries as New -

When you have additional rows of data that you'd like to add to an existing query, you append the query.
There are two append options:
* Append queries as new displays the Append dialog box to create a new query by appending multiple tables.
* Append queries displays the Append dialog box to add additional tables to the current query.
Incorrect: When you have one or more columns that you'd like to add to another query, you merge the queries.
Box 2: Disable loading the query to the data model
By default, all queries from Query Editor will be loaded into the memory of Power BI Model. You can disable the load for some queries,
especially queries that used as intermediate transformation to produce the final query for the model.
Disabling Load doesn't mean the query won't be refreshed, it only means the query won't be loaded into the memory. When you click on Refresh
model in Power
BI, or when a scheduled refresh happens even queries marked as Disable Load will be refreshed, but their data will be used as intermediate
source for other queries instead of loading directly into the model. This is a very basic performance tuning tip, but very important when your
Power BI model grows bigger and bigger.

For this case, I would say merging the two tables is actually better because there might be a lot of duplicated customer records. Appending
doesn't really make sense because it will cause data duplication issue. Though the comparing process is not easy because the customer ID
might be different for the same customer in two databases. Correct me if wrong.

Question #6 Topic 1
DRAG DROP -
In Power Query Editor, you have three queries named ProductCategory, ProductSubCategory, and Product.
Every Product has a ProductSubCategory.
Not every ProductsubCategory has a parent ProductCategory.
You need to merge the three queries into a single query. The solution must ensure the best performance in Power Query.
How should you merge the tables? To answer, drag the appropriate merge types to the correct queries. Each merge type may be used once, more
than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.
Select and Place:
Correct Answer:
Box 1: Inner -
Every Product has a ProductSubCategory.
A standard join is needed.
One of the join kinds available in the Merge dialog box in Power Query is an inner join, which brings in only matching rows from both the left and
right tables.
Box 2: Left outer -

Not every ProductsubCategory has a parent ProductCategory.
One of the join kinds available in the Merge dialog box in Power Query is a left outer join, which keeps all the rows from the left table and brings
in any matching rows from the right table.

When you join tables (inner join) you'll get all rows from T1 and all rows from T2 that meet the join and where conditions. It is not relevant if
the cardinality is 1 or many on one or both sides.
In your example the result would be:
product 1 - socks
product 2 - socks
product 3 - socks
product 4 - shoes
product 5 - shoes

Question #7 Topic 1
You are building a Power BI report that uses data from an Azure SQL database named erp1.
You import the following tables.

  andregrahamnz 2 weeks, 3 days ago

This one is fairly controversial and comes down to reading skills really. As other commentators have stated there are three key concepts required;
date information, order value (price*quantity), and 'attributes of products sold'. We know the date and order value are present in Order Line Items.
The only question is where are we most likely to find 'attributes of products sold'. The obvious answer is already the Products table, but this is
further reinforced by the fact that the answer also indicates there is a matching key between Order Details and Product. There is no such
explicitly stated matching key between orders and order line items.
The only correct answer to this is A. Anybody saying D has not properly absorbed and thought about the information available.

After a lot of thought and after reading all the comments here I believe the right answer is A. The reason is that the table named Orders has only

need attributes of products sold so Products table is necessary too. So answer is A for sure.

Selected Answer: A
We have to import Excel files from SharePoint, so we need the connector SharePoint folder which is used to get access to the files stored in the
library. SharePoint list is a collection of content that has rows and columns (like a table) and is used for task lists, calendars, etc.
Since we have to filter only on manufacturing reports, we have to select Transform and then filter by the corresponding folder path.
upvoted 6 times

Selected Answer: D
The answer is D
Once the site URL is entered, the user selects "Combine & Transform Data" or "Combine & Load". But not just "Transform". Also there is no need
to filter by the folder path, because the folder path is already in the URL.

A: Sounds correct until you also have to combine the files after filtering. This is missing here. Otherwise it works exactly like this.
B: SharePoint List connector needs many more steps. After entering the site URL, you have to do many transformation steps and I did not
manage to come until the combine step. So the answer as it is here seems to be wrong for me.

Question #10 Topic 1
You have a CSV file that contains user complaints. The file contains a column named Logged. Logged contains the date and time each complaint
occurred. The data in Logged is in the following format: 2018-12-31 at 08:59.
You need to be able to analyze the complaints by the logged date and use a built-in date hierarchy.
What should you do?
A. Apply a transformation to extract the last 11 characters of the Logged column and set the data type of the new column to Date.
B. Change the data type of the Logged column to Date.
C. Split the Logged column by using at as the delimiter.
D. Apply a transformation to extract the first 11 characters of the Logged column.
Correct Answer: D
Extract the date, which is the first 11 characters.
CSV files have no data types.
Note: A CSV is a comma-separated values file, which allows data to be saved in a tabular format. CSVs look like a garden-variety spreadsheet
but with a . csv extension. CSV files can be used with most any spreadsheet program, such as Microsoft Excel or Google Spreadsheets.

Unique represents values that appears just 1 time (Only once) at this column...
If Null is greater than 1, it counts JUST as a "Distinct" and will NOT change the "Unique Value".
PS: In case of just 1 Null row, it WILL increase the Unique (just +1, no matters how many times it will occured, JUST +1)!!!
..So, 69 different values (including Nulls) are on this Column AND it's not possible to define How many rows it has (so far, so good! this is not
required here)
AND, as... Null is GREATER than 1 (just checking the percentage), we conclued that : There are 4 Unique non-nulls values that occured only once
in State.

✑ CategoryName

✑ CategoryDescription
How should you combine the queries, and what should you do on the Categories query? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer
area.
Hot Area:
Correct Answer:
Box 1: Merge -
There are two primary ways of combining queries: merging and appending.
* When you have one or more columns that you'd like to add to another query, you merge the queries.
* When you have additional rows of data that you'd like to add to an existing query, you append the query.
Box 2: Disable the query load -
Managing loading of queries -

In many situations, it makes sense to break down your data transformations in multiple queries. One popular example is merging where you
merge two queries into one to essentially do a join. In this type of situations, some queries are not relevant to load into Desktop as they are
intermediate steps, while they are still required for your data transformations to work correctly. For these queries, you can make sure they are
not loaded in Desktop by un-checking 'Enable load' in the context menu of the query in Desktop or in the Properties screen:

I agree that it should be remove content. However it is another ambiguous possible answer from Microsoft, because after getting the data as the
first step, the last two steps (Remove content column, & Expand attribute column) can be done in any order. The order doesn't matter for the last
two steps, it would work either way. So again its annoying if Microsoft dont allow for both answers to be correct due to the order.

A business intelligence (BI) developer creates a dataflow in Power BI that uses DirectQuery to access tables from an on-premises Microsoft SQL
server. The
Enhanced Dataflows Compute Engine is turned on for the dataflow.
You need to use the dataflow in a report. The solution must meet the following requirements:
✑ Minimize online processing operations.
✑ Minimize calculation times and render times for visuals.
✑ Include data from the current year, up to and including the previous day.
What should you do?
A. Create a dataflows connection that has DirectQuery mode selected.
B. Create a dataflows connection that has DirectQuery mode selected and configure a gateway connection for the dataset.
C. Create a dataflows connection that has Import mode selected and schedule a daily refresh.
D. Create a dataflows connection that has Import mode selected and create a Microsoft Power Automate solution to refresh the data hourly.
Correct Answer: C
A daily update is adequate.
When you set up a refresh schedule, Power BI connects directly to the data sources using connection information and credentials in the dataset
to query for updated data, then loads the updated data into the dataset. Any visualizations in reports and dashboards based on that dataset in
the Power BI service are also updated.

Question #1 Topic 2
You are creating a report in Power BI Desktop.

You load a data extract that includes a free text field named coll.
You need to analyze the frequency distribution of the string lengths in col1. The solution must not affect the size of the model.
What should you do?
A. In the report, add a DAX calculated column that calculates the length of col1
B. In the report, add a DAX function that calculates the average length of col1
C. From Power Query Editor, add a column that calculates the length of col1
D. From Power Query Editor, change the distribution for the Column profile to group by length for col1
Correct Answer: A
The LEN DAX function returns the number of characters in a text string.
Note: DAX is a collection of Power BI functions, operators, and constants that can be used in a formula, or expression, to calculate and return
one or more values.
Stated more simply, DAX helps you create new information from data already in your model.

A and D is correct. The Power BI Desktop data model only supports date/time, but they can be formatted as dates or times independently.
Date/Time – Represents both a date and time value. Underneath the covers, the Date/Time value is stored as a Decimal Number Type. Since
there's a T in the dates column before split, it's saved as a source text value. Splitting converts it to a numeric value. This reduces the size.

✑ The managers must only see the data of their respective country.
✑ The number of RLS roles must be minimized.
Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
A. Create a single role that filters Country[Manager_Email] by using the USERNAME DAX function.
B. Create a single role that filters Country[Manager_Email] by using the USEROBJECTID DAX function.
C. For the relationship between Purchase Detail and Purchase, select Apply security filter in both directions.
D. Create one role for each country.
E. For the relationship between Purchase and Purchase Detail, change the Cross filter direction to Single.
Correct Answer: AC
A: You can take advantage of the DAX functions username() or userprincipalname() within your dataset. You can use them within expressions in
Power BI
Desktop. When you publish your model, it will be used within the Power BI service.
Note: To define security roles, follow these steps.
Import data into your Power BI Desktop report, or configure a DirectQuery connection.
1. From the Modeling tab, select Manage Roles.
2. From the Manage roles window, select Create.
3. Under Roles, provide a name for the role.
4. Under Tables, select the table to which you want to apply a DAX rule.
5. In the Table filter DAX expression box, enter the DAX expressions. This expression returns a value of true or false. For example: [Entity ID] =
‫ג‬€Value‫ג‬€.
6. After you've created the DAX expression, select the checkmark above the expression box to validate the expression.
Note: You can use username() within this expression.
7. Select Save.
C: By default, row-level security filtering uses single-directional filters, whether the relationships are set to single direction or bi-directional. You
can manually enable bi-directional cross-filtering with row-level security by selecting the relationship and checking the Apply security filter in
both directions checkbox. Select this option when you've also implemented dynamic row-level security at the server level, where row-level
security is based on username or login ID.

Question #9 Topic 2
HOTSPOT -
You have a Power BI imported dataset that contains the data model shown in the following exhibit.
Hot Area:
Correct Answer:
Box 1: Assume Referential Integrity

When connecting to a data source using DirectQuery, you can use the Assume Referential Integrity selection to enable running more efficient
queries against your data source. This feature has a few requirements of the underlying data, and it is only available when using DirectQuery.
Note: The following requirements are necessary for Assume referential integrity to work properly:
Data in the From column in the relationship is never Null or blank
For each value in the From column, there is a corresponding value in the To column
Box 2: Star schema -

Star schema is a mature modeling approach widely adopted by relational data warehouses. It requires modelers to classify their model tables
as either dimension or fact.
Generally, dimension tables contain a relatively small number of rows. Fact tables, on the other hand, can contain a very large number of rows
and continue to grow over time.
Example:
Reference:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/desktop-assume-referential-integrity https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-

Box 2: snowflakes. Employee table is a dimension table. Some people say that it could be used as a fact table. Okay then, where are the
measures? There are no measures in the Employee table for us to see in the model, so it must be a dimension table.

If it is a snowflake schema and Employee is a dimension table, then there should be a fact table linked to the Employee table in this model.

Box 1: Assume Referential Integrity
When connecting to a data source using DirectQuery, you can use the Assume Referential Integrity selection to enable running more efficient
queries against your data source. This feature has a few requirements of the underlying data, and it is only available when using DirectQuery.
The first line of the question tells it is a IMPORTED dataset. So this answer is wrong!

If the Employees table was just a dimension table, then there should also be a fact table in this schema.
But in this context appearantly the Employees table functions as a fact table. This could be the case when used for a Human Resource report

Step 3: Assign Users to the role.
You can't assign users to a role within Power BI Desktop. You assign them in the Power BI service.
After you've created your roles, test the results of the roles within Power BI Desktop.
Step 4: Publish the report.
Now that you're done validating the roles in Power BI Desktop, go ahead and publish your report to the Power BI service.

The report uses an imported dataset that contains one fact table. The fact table contains 12 million rows. The dataset is scheduled to refresh
twice a day at 08:00 and 17:00.
The report is a single page that contains 15 AppSource visuals and 10 default visuals.
Users say that the report is slow to load the visuals when they access and interact with the report.
You need to recommend a solution to improve the performance of the report.

A. Change any DAX measures to use iterator functions.
B. Enable visual interactions.
C. Replace the default visuals with AppSource visuals.

You have a Microsoft Power BI data model that contains three tables named Orders, Date, and City. There is a one-to-many relationship between
Date and
Orders and between City and Orders.
The model contains two row-level security (RLS) roles named Role1 and Role2. Role1 contains the following filter.
City[State Province] = "Kentucky"
Role2 contains the following filter.
Date[Calendar Year] = 2020 -

If a user is a member of both Role1 and Role2, what data will they see in a report that uses the model?
A. The user will see data for which the State Province value is Kentucky or where the Calendar Year is 2020.
B. The user will receive an error and will not be able to see the data in the report.
C. The user will only see data for which the State Province value is Kentucky.
D. The user will only see data for which the State Province value is Kentucky and the Calendar Year is 2020.
Correct Answer: D
Row-level security (RLS) with Power BI can be used to restrict data access for given users. Filters restrict data access at the row level, and you
can define filters within roles.
Both Roles are applied, and both role filters must be met.
Incorrect:
Not B: A model relationship is limited when there's no guaranteed "one" side. You get an error message if you belong to multiple RLS roles and
at least one of the roles relies on a limited relationship. But here both relationships have a guaranteed 1 side.

with both role should be OR not and AND. because the role Kentucky will diplay many years of data and year 2020 will show any region in that
year. so the logic is actually all the region and all the year. Since no year filter in Kentucky and no region filter in year. Make sense?

Roles perform like unions and not intersections. For example, if a person is assigned two roles "Sales Manager" and "Union member", this
particular person is both a Sales Manager and a Union member. What a Sales Manager can do is totally different from what a Union member can
do, and those two roles may not have much if anything in common. Still, a person who are assigned both roles should be able to do jobs of both

We should add the filter directly to the where clause and not rely on query folding for filtering. This is because that query folding is not always
guaranteed. For example, if we perform complex logics after filtering in Power Query that are not supported in SQL queries, query folding might
not happen. It is a good practice to add the filter directly to the where clause to guarantee that only required data is fetched.

To answer the question you need to ask yourself: "is query folding happening"? If yes, then the correct answer is "A: Yes".
I do not see a reason why "query folding" is not happening, and that's because not only we are importing from a structured data source
(Microsoft SQL Server, which support "query folding") but we are also applying a simple filter (which will be easly translated into a native query).
Please note: even if we are using a native SQL query (i.e.: SELECT * FROM table), we can still enable "query folding" (source: Guy in a Cube:

Solution: You write a DAX expression that uses the FILTER function.

Correct Answer: B
Instead: You add a WHERE clause to the SQL statement.
Note: DAX is not a language designed to fetch the data like SQL rather than used for data analysis purposes. It is always a better and
recommended approach to transform the data as close to the data source itself. For example, your data source is a relational database; then,
it's better to go with T-SQL.
SQL is a structured query language, whereas DAX is a formula language used for data analysis purposes. When our data is stored in some
structured database systems like SQL server management studio, MySQL, or others, we have to use SQL to fetch the stored data.

Correct Answer: A
Power Query enables you to specify your native database query in a text box under Advanced options when connecting to a database. In the
example below, you'll import data from a SQL Server database using a native database query entered in the SQL statement text box.
1. Connect to a SQL Server database using Power Query. Select the SQL Server database option in the connector selection.
2. In the SQL Server database popup window:
3. Specify the Server and Database where you want to import data from using native database query.
4. Under Advanced options, select the SQL statement field and paste or enter your native database query, then select OK.

You are over thinking it. Its asking for a sample of the data in a table with more than 100 million rows. So a simple select statement like the

In pivoting/unpivoting transformation, you can not perform one action without the other. i.e when you unpivot a set columns, you equally have to
pivot the remaining columns as different steps. Since the questions provided only one of the steps(unpivoting) without the other, then the
transformation is not pivoting/unpivoting. The transformation is Transpose which is:

You plan to create Power BI dataset to analyze attendance at a school. Data will come from two separate views named View1 and View2 in an

View1 contains the columns shown in the following table.
View2 contains the columns shown in the following table.
The views can be related based on the Class ID column.

Class ID is the unique identifier for the specified class, period, teacher, and school year. For example, the same class can be taught by the same
teacher during two different periods, but the class will have a different class ID.
You need to design a star schema data model by using the data in both views. The solution must facilitate the following analysis:

Fact tables store observations or events, and can be sales orders, stock balances, exchange rates, temperatures, etc. A fact table contains

Dimension tables describe business entities
the things you model. Entities can include products, people, places, and concepts including time itself. The most consistent table you'll find in a

as small as possible and to avoid mistakes.

You have the Power BI model shown in the following exhibit.

A. Create a slicer that filters Departments based on DepartmentID.
B. Create a row-level security (RLS) role for each department, and then define the membership of the role.
C. Create a DepartmentID parameter to filter the Departments table.
D. To the ConfidentialData table, add a calculated measure that uses the CURRENTGROUP DAX function.

We're not dealing with a matric here, we're dealing with a simple table. In simple tables values that occur more than once won't be shown in the
rows multiple times. Since you're they tell you you have 51 unique values (and the other ones aren't null values) you can be sure it's more than
51. Since you'll already have 51 rows of unique values.
So the first is answer is 75.
Furthermore, when you add another table, change the sign to summarize, you will add up all the values of the 51 unique values and all the rest.
Which means you will get one single row, displaying the sum of all these values.
Therefore, the second answer is reduce.

You can test it by creating a table with one column that contains 75 non-null values out of which 51 are unique.
After that just drag your column to the simple table and you will see that it has to be more than 51 rows (the table will show the distinct values).
The part that is confusing is that it doesn't say 75 distinct values, but since there need to be more distinct values than 51, we can assume that all
of the 75 values are distinct.
After that, just add some summarization and it will show you only one number.

How did you test it? Did You use 75 distinct values or with repeated values?, because the result is not the same. "Distinct" is not same as

If you used 75 non-null values of which 51 are unique then it means that 24 values are not unique (each value exist more than once), so your
result will be 51 + distinct (the other 24 values) os it´s not possible your result.
The only way to have the result of 75 is knowing that we have 75 distinct values and not just 75 values (rows), and the only way to have the
result of 51 is having 51 distinct values and not unique (unless all the rows we have are unique, in this case distcint = unique)

You are creating a Microsoft Power BI data model that has the tables shown in the following table.
The Products table is related to the ProductCategory table through the ProductCategoryID column. Each product has one product category.
You need to ensure that you can analyze sales by product category.
How should you configure the relationship from ProductCategory to Products? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
Hot Area:
Correct Answer:
Box 1: One-to-many -
The one-to-many and many-to-one cardinality options are essentially the same, and they're also the most common cardinality types.
Incorrect: A many-to-many relationship means both columns can contain duplicate values. This cardinality type is infrequently used. It's
typically useful when designing complex model requirements. You can use it to relate many-to-many facts or to relate higher grain facts. For
example, when sales target facts are stored at product category level and the product dimension table is stored at product level.
Box 2: Single -
Incorrect:
Bear in mind that bi-directional relationships can impact negatively on performance. Further, attempting to configure a bi-directional
relationship could result in ambiguous filter propagation paths. In this case, Power BI Desktop may fail to commit the relationship change and
will alert you with an error message.

  scotchtapebunny 2 weeks, 1 day ago

you want to analyse SALE BY PRODUCT CATEGORY, you need cross filter direction single to make this work. If you do both that means you
want to analyze PRODUCT CATEGORY by SALE. This doesn't make sense so there is no need for both. You're going downstream from
product category to sales not the other way around.
This is what I think but I'd be thankful if someone can help me if I am wrong.

The answer is correct. However, I believe the alternate solution given is wrong. I would say that 3 relationships for each date respectively would
be made from the Date table to the Sales table. One being active and the other two inactive. Thus, allowing to filter by a specific date column
The solution suggested is not required, as the report does not require any output that involves all 3 dates. It requires only sales over one date
column at a time. Moreover, being date tables, they can significantly increase the size of the model (considering that the table is sales related).

Solution: From the Fields pane, you rename the date table as Due Date. You use a DAX expression to create Order Date and Delivery Date as

A. Yes
B. No
Correct Answer: A
Refactoring methodology -
Here's a methodology to refactor a model from a single role-playing dimension-type table, to a design with one table per role.
1. Remove any inactive relationships.
2. Consider renaming the role-playing dimension-type table to better describe its role. In the example (not present here), the Airport table is
related to the
ArrivalAirport column of the Flight table, so it's renamed as Arrival Airport.
3. Create a copy of the role-playing table, providing it with a name that reflects its role. If it's an Import table, we recommend defining a
calculated table. If it's a
DirectQuery table, you can duplicate the Power Query query.
In the example, the Departure Airport table was created by using the following calculated table definition.
Departure Airport = 'Arrival Airport'
Create an active relationship to relate the new table.
4. Consider renaming the columns in the tables so they accurately reflect their role. In the example, all columns are prefixed with the word
Departure or Arrival.
These names ensure report visuals, by default, will have self-describing and non-ambiguous labels. It also improves the Q&A experience,
allowing users to easily write their questions.
5. Consider adding descriptions to role-playing tables. (In the Fields pane, a description appears in a tooltip when a report author hovers their
cursor over the table.) This way, you can communicate any additional filter propagation details to your report authors.

The Unpivot Other Columns command unpivots unselected columns. Use this command in a query when not all columns are known. New

Note: Unpivot columns: In Power Query, you can transform columns into attribute-value pairs, where columns become rows.
Step 2: Rename the Attribue column to Year and the Value Column to Revenue
Need to do this after the unpivot.
Power Query will always create the attribute-value pair by using two columns:
Attribute: The name of the column headings that were unpivoted.
Value: The values that were underneath each of the unpivoted column headings.

not a surrogate key as well. 3) An order usually consists of multiple products. 4) The Product Id is unique in the sample data as well, and we

You are creating a Power BI model that contains a table named Store. Store contains the following fields.
You plan to create a map visual that will show store locations and provide the ability to drill down from Country to State/Province to City.
What should you do to ensure that the locations are mapped properly?
A. Change the data type of City, State/Province, and Country.
B. Set Summarization for City, State/Province, and Country to Don't summarize.
C. Set the data category of City, State/Province, and Country.
D. Create a calculated column that concatenates the values in City, State/Province, and Country.
Correct Answer: C
A hierarchy is a set of fields categorized in a hierarchical way that one level is the parent of another level. Values of the parent level can be
drilled down to the lower level.
Create Hierarchy -
Right-click on the field you want to set as level 1 of the hierarchy in the fields list, and then select Create Hierarchy.
After that, you will see a new hierarchy created named your field name ‫ג‬€Category‫ג‬€ plus the word ‫ג‬€Hierarchy‫ג‬€. This would have a hierarchy
icon beside it and also an option to expand to the fields of the hierarchy. If you expand, you will see a copy of the Category field in there too.
Etc.

You are building a data model for a Power BI report.

You have data formatted as shown in the following table.
You need to create a clustered bar chart as shown in the following exhibit.
What should you do?
A. From Power Query Editor, split the Machine-User column by using a delimiter.
B. From Power Query Editor, create a column that contains the last three digits of the Machine-User column.
C. In a DAX function, create two calculated columns named Machine and User by using the SUBSTITUTE function.
D. In a DAX function, create two measures named Machine and User by using the SUBSTITUTE function.
Correct Answer: A
Split a column of text (Power Query)
You can split a column with a text data type into two or more columns by using a common delimiter character. For example, a Name column
that contains values written as <LastName>, <FirstName> can be split into two columns using the comma (,) character.
Note: Power Query is an Extract Transform Load (ETL) tool. It allows us to
Download and fetch data from different sources. We call this data ingestion
Combine, clean, and model this data. We call this data wrangling

Actually the DAX USERELATIONSHIP() function could offer a solution, but not how it is stated as an option: "You create measures that use the

Because the report must be filtered on all 3 dates, the ACTIVE (1) AND INACTIVE (2) relationships should be used with function
USERELATIONSHIP, not only the ACTIVE relationship.

You need to create a calculated column to classify each transaction as small, medium, or large based on the value in Sales Amount.

Box 1: CALCULATE -
CALCULATE evaluates an expression in a modified filter context.
Syntax: CALCULATE(<expression>[, <filter1> [, <filter2> [, ‫ג‬€¦]]])
The expression used as the first parameter is essentially the same as a measure.
Filters can be:
Boolean filter expressions -
Table filter expressions -
Filter modification functions -
Table filter expression -

A table expression filter applies a table object as a filter. It could be a reference to a model table, but more likely it's a function that returns a
table object. You can use the FILTER function to apply complex filter conditions, including those that cannot be defined by a Boolean filter
expression.
Box 2: AND -

FILTER returns a table that represents a subset of another table or expression.
Syntax: FILTER(<table>,<filter>)

In most visuals, highlighting doesn't remove the unrelated data. Instead it highlights the related data. The rest of the data remains visible but

A user creates a Power BI report named ReportA that uses a custom theme.
You create a dashboard named DashboardA.
You need to ensure that DashboardA uses the custom theme. The solution must minimize development effort.
A. Publish ReportA to Power BI.
B. From ReportA save the current theme.
C. Publish ReportA to the Microsoft Power BI Community theme gallery.
D. From DashboardA, create a custom theme.
E. From DashboardA, upload a JSON theme.
Correct Answer: AE
A: With Power BI Desktop report themes, you can apply design changes to your entire report, such as using corporate colors, changing icon
sets, or applying new default visual formatting.
When you publish a Power BI Desktop file to the Power BI service, you publish the data in the model to your Power BI workspace. The same is
true for any reports you created in Report view.
To publish a Power BI Desktop dataset and reports
1. In Power BI Desktop, choose File > Publish > Publish to Power BI or select Publish on the ribbon.
Sign in to Power BI, if you aren't already signed in.
2. Select the destination. You can search your list of available workspaces to find the workspace into which you want to publish. The search box
lets you filter your workspaces. Select the workspace, and then click the Select button to publish.
3. Etc.
E: One way to create a custom theme is to upload a JSON file that has settings for all the colors you'd like to use for your dashboard. In Power
BI Desktop, report creators use JSON files to create themes for reports. You can upload these same JSON files for dashboards, or find and
upload JSON files from the Theme gallery page in the Power BI Community.
You can also save your custom theme as a JSON file and then share it with other dashboard creators.

Question #6 Topic 3
You build a report to help the sales team understand its performance and the drivers of sales.
The team needs to have a single visualization to identify which factors affect success.
A. Key influencers
B. Line and clustered column chart
C. Q&A
D. Funnel chart
Correct Answer: A
The key influencers visual helps you understand the factors that drive a metric you're interested in. It analyzes your data, ranks the factors that
matter, and displays them as key influencers. For example, suppose you want to figure out what influences employee turnover, which is also
known as churn. One factor might be employment contract length, and another factor might be commute time.
When to use key influencers.
The key influencers visual is a great choice if you want to:
See which factors affect the metric being analyzed.
Contrast the relative importance of these factors. For example, do short-term contracts affect churn more than long-term contracts?

Question #9 Topic 3
You have a report that contains four pages. Each page contains slicers for the same four fields.
Users report that when they select values in a slicer on one page, the selections are not persisted on other pages.
You need to recommend a solution to ensure that users can select a value once to filter the results on all the pages.
What are two possible recommendations to achieve this goal? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
A. Create a bookmark for each slicer value.
B. Replace the slicers with report-level filters.
C. Sync the slicers across the pages.
D. Replace the slicers with page-level filters.
E. Replace the slicers with visual-level filters.
Correct Answer: BC
C: You can sync a slicer and use it on any or all pages in a report.
B: You can set filters at three different levels for the report: visual-level, page-level, and report-level.
Note: Suppose you want your report readers to be able to look at overall sales metrics, but also highlight performance for individual district
managers and different time frames. You could create separate reports or comparative charts. You could add filters in the Filters pane. Or you
could use slicers. Slicers are another way of filtering. They narrow the portion of the dataset that is shown in the other report visualizations.

You have a report that includes a card visualization.

You need to apply the following conditional formatting to the card while minimizing design effort:
✑ For values that are greater than or equal to 100, the font of the data label must be dark red.
✑ For values that are less than 100, the font of the data label must be dark gray.
Which type of format should you use?
A. Color scale
B. Rules
C. Field value
Correct Answer: B
Finding the conditional formatting in the card visual is a bit tricky. There is no separate option for that. You need to go to the Format tab of the
visual, and then expand the Data Label. The right beside the Data Label's colour you need to hover your mouse, and you will find a three dots
icon appearing, which if you click on it, you will see Conditional Formatting.
Now in the Conditional Formatting tab, you can apply it in different methods. for example, you can choose Rules, and then

Correct Answer:
Step 1: From ReportA, select Get Insights

Then select 'Get Insights'‫ג‬€¦ From the Datasets + dataflows tab, select More options (...) next to the dataset, and then choose Get insights.
Power BI Quick Insights will now scan the data related to the tile and display a list of potential insights you may want to explore further. To drill
into a specific data point, you can even select data in the visual and Quick Insights will focus on that data point when searching for insights.
Power BI uses various algorithms to search for trends in your dataset.
Within seconds, your insights are ready. Select View insights to display visualizations.
The visualizations display in a special Quick Insights canvas with up to 32 separate insight cards. Each card has a chart or graph plus a short
description.
Step 2: From DashboardA, select the TileA options, and then select View Insights
The insight screen opens in Focus mode.
Step 3: From Focus mode, pin the relevant visuals to DashboardA

You are creating a dashboard by using the Power BI service.

You have an existing report page that contains three charts.
You need to add the charts to the dashboard while maintaining the interactivity between the charts.
What should you do?
A. Edit interactions in the report and set all interactions to Filter.
B. Pin each chart as a tile.
C. Edit the dashboard theme and pin each chart as a tile.
D. Pin the report page as a live tile.
Correct Answer: D
One way to add a new dashboard tile is by pinning an entire report page. This is an easy way to pin more than one visualization at a time. Also,
when you pin an entire page, the tiles are live; you can interact with them right there on the dashboard. And changes you make to any of the
visualizations back in the report editor, like adding a filter or changing the fields used in the chart, are reflected in the dashboard tile as well.
Pinning live tiles from reports to dashboards is only available in Power BI service (app.powerbi.com).

C. Select the donut chart and set the column chart interaction to None.

4. To display the visualization interaction controls, select Edit interactions. Power BI adds filter and highlight icons to all of the other
visualizations on the report page.
We can see that the tree map is cross-filtering the line chart and the map, and is cross-highlighting the column chart. You can now change how
the selected visualization interacts with the other visualizations on the report page.

visuals.
Which type of visual should you use?
A. Q&A
B. smart narrative

Correct Answer: B
The smart narrative visualization helps you quickly summarize visuals and reports. It provides relevant innovative insights that you can
customize.
Use smart narrative summaries in your reports to address key takeaways, to point out trends, and to edit the language and format for a specific
audience. In
PowerPoint, instead of pasting a screenshot of your report's key takeaways, you can add narratives that are updated with every refresh. Your
audience can use the summaries to understand the data, get to key points faster, and explain the data to others.

According to the following link this leads us to select as the 2nd step: From powerbi.com, Upload Excel. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-
us/power-bi/create-reports/service-from-excel-to-stunning-report
Now the 3rd step in my opinion is: Pin a range from excel to dashboard. Cause when we upload a file a dataset is not created. Source :

Bad question
An uploaded Excel file can have a selection pinned. This does not support Q&A
An imported Excel file becomes a Dataset. But a dataset can not be pinned. You need to pin something from a report or run Quick Insight and pin
from here.
So neither Upload or Import works as we need to pin something on the Dashboard to associate it to a dataset

You have a clustered bar chart that contains a measure named Salary as the value and a field named Employee as the axis. Salary is present in the
data as a numerical amount representing US dollars.
You need to create a reference line to show which employees are above the median salary.
Solution: You create a constant line and set the value to .5.
A. Yes
B. No
Correct Answer: B
Instead: You create a percentile line by using the Salary measure and set the percentile to 50%.
The median is the middle value or the 50th percentile of a data set.

How on earth are people saying this is correct? There are 28 values listed on the distribution graph alone with more to scroll down too. Clearly
the answer is not '20' which represents the values that only occur once. The question is bad as it could be referring to distinct count or total
count. Either way, giving the answer as 20 can be ruled out as wrong.

These 28 values that you refer to in the distribution graph are 28 values out of 365, hence why you can scroll down to see more. These 28
values are also the top 28 out of 365 that appear the most, you can see this by the length of the bar.
If you scroll down to the bottom of the distribution graph, you would see 20 values that only have a count of 1.
Unique means only appear once, so 20 is the answer.

You have two Power BI reports named ReportA and ReportB that each uses a distinct color palette.
You are creating a Power BI dashboard that will include two visuals from each report.
You need to use a consistent dark theme for the dashboard. The solution must preserve the original colors of the reports.
A. Upload a snapshot.
B. For the browser, set the color preference to dark mode.
C. When pinning visuals to the dashboard, select Use destination theme.
D. Select the dark dashboard theme.
E. Turn on tile flow.
Correct Answer: CD
D: With dashboard themes you can apply a color theme to your entire dashboard, such as corporate colors, seasonal coloring, or any other color
theme you might want to apply. When you apply a dashboard theme, all visuals on your dashboard use the colors from your selected theme.
In the dashboard pane that appears, select one of the pre-built themes. In the example below, we've selected Dark.
C: Reports and dashboards with different themes

If your report uses a different theme from the dashboard theme, in most cases you can control whether the visual retains the current report
theme or uses the dashboard theme.
* Try re-pinning the tile and selecting Use dashboard theme.

You need to create a Power BI report. The first page of the report must contain the following two views:
✑ Sales By Postal Code
✑ Sales by Month
Both views must display a slicer to select a value for a field named Chain.
The Sales By Postal Code view must display a map visual as shown in the following exhibit.
The Sales By Month view must display a column chart visual as shown in the following exhibit.
Users must be able to switch between the views by using buttons on the report page. The selected Chain field must be maintained when switching
between views.
What is the minimum number of bookmarks required, and which property should you apply to each bookmark? To answer, select the appropriate
options in the answer area.
Hot Area:
Correct Answer:
Box 1: 2 -
One for each visual.
Note: When you edit a report in Power BI Desktop and the Power BI service, you can add report bookmarks to capture the current state of a
report page.
Bookmarks save the current filters and slicers, cross-highlighted visuals, sort order, and so on. When others view your report, they can get back
to that exact state by selecting your saved bookmark.
Box 2: Display -
Users must be able to switch between the views by using buttons on the report page. The selected Chain field must be maintained when
switching between views.
You can select whether each bookmark will apply Data properties, such as filters and slicers; Display properties, such as spotlight and its
visibility; and Current page changes, which present the page that was visible when the bookmark was added. These capabilities are useful when
you use bookmarks to switch between report views or selections of visuals, in which case you'd likely want to turn off data properties, so that
filters aren't reset when users switch views by selecting a bookmark.
Note: When you create a bookmark, the following elements are saved with the bookmark:
The current page -
Filters -
Slicers, including slicer type (for example, dropdown or list) and slicer state
Visual selection state (such as cross-highlight filters)
Sort order -
Drill location -
Visibility of an object (by using the Selection pane)
The focus or Spotlight mode of any visible object
Reference:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-bookmarks

"The selected Chain field must be maintained when switching between views."
We need 4 bookmarks:
- Sales By Postal Code filtered on Fashions Direct
- Sales By Postal Code filtered on Lindsey
- Sales By Month filtered on Fashions Direct
- Sales By Month filtered on Lindsey
If we have only one bookmark per visual, these bookmarks will only preserve one possible value of the Chain filter.
For instance, you created your bookmarks with Sales By Postal Code filtered on Fashions Direct and Sales By Month filtered on Fashions Direct.
You are currently viewing Sales By Postal Code filtered on Fashions Direct, and you decide to click on the slicer to filter on Lindsey instead. Then
you click on your button to change the visual to Sales By Month, but the slicer value will change to Fashions Direct. It will not retain the value
Lindsey.

My bad. By default my reasoning is right, but it is possible to disable the "Data" part of the bookmark so that the slicer value is retained while

You have the visual shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit tab.)
You need to show the relationship between Total Cost and Total Sales over time.
What should you do?
A. Add a play axis.
B. From the Analytics pane, add an Average line.
C. Add a slicer for the year.
D. Create a DAX measure that calculates year-over-year growth.
Correct Answer: A
When to use a slicer -
Slicers are a great choice when you want to:
Display commonly used or important filters on the report canvas for easier access.
Make it easier to see the current filtered state without having to open a drop-down list.
Filter by columns that are unneeded and hidden in the data tables.
Create more focused reports by putting slicers next to important visuals.
Note: Suppose you want your report readers to be able to look at overall sales metrics, but also highlight performance for individual district
managers and different time frames. You could create separate reports or comparative charts. You could add filters in the Filters pane. Or you
could use slicers. Slicers are another way of filtering. They narrow the portion of the dataset that is shown in the other report visualizations.

You have a report that contains three pages. One of the pages contains a KPI visualization.
You need to filter all the visualizations in the report except for the KPI visualization.
A. Edit the interactions of the KPI visualization.
B. Add the same slicer to each page and configure Sync slicers.
C. Edit the interactions of the slicer that is on the same page as the KPI visualization.
D. Configure a page-level filter.
E. Configure a report-level filter.
Correct Answer: BC
Slicers are another way of filtering. They narrow the portion of the dataset that is shown in the other report visualizations.
Control which page visuals are affected by slicers
Example: Use visual interactions to keep slicer selections from filtering this chart.
1. Go to the Overview page of the report, and then select the DM slicer you previously created.
2. On the Power BI Desktop menu, select the Format menu under Visual Tools, and then select Edit interactions.
3. Filter controls, each with a Filter and a None option, appear above all the visuals on the page. Initially, the Filter option is preselected on all
the controls.
4. Select the None option in the filter control above the Total Sales Variance by FiscalMonth and District Manager chart to stop the DM slicer
from filtering it.
Incorrect:
Not D: A page-level filter is used to filter an entire page.

You have a Power BI report.

You have a table named Data1 that contains 10 million rows.
Data1 is used in the following visuals:
✑ A card that shows the number of records
✑ A bar chart that shows total transaction amount by territory
✑ A scatter plot that shows transaction amount and profit amount on the axes and points colored by territory
You need to modify the scatter plot to make it easier for users to identify meaningful patterns. The solution must not affect the accuracy of the
other visuals.
What should you do?
A. Add a count field of the transaction amount to the size bucket of the scatter plot.
B. Add a trend line to the scatter plot.
C. Enable high-density sampling on the scatter plot.
D. Apply a row filter to the Data1 query in Power Query Editor.
Correct Answer: B
A trend line is a straight line that best represents the points on a scatterplot. The trend line may go through some points but need not go
through them all. The trend line is used to show the pattern of the data. This trend line may show a positive trend or a negative trend.

Selected Answer: B
The solution must not affect the accuracy of the other visuals as required, and " C. Enable high-density sampling on the scatter plot." would

upvoted 1 times

Selected Answer: C
This question requires "modification" of the scatter plot and what high-density sampling essentially does is to employ methods that capture and
represent the underlying data more effectively and eliminates overlapping points.
Remember that the table named Data1 contains 10 million rows. How do you represent all that data in a scatter plot in a meaningful pattern for
easy understanding and analysis? by use of high density sampling.
"By definition, high-density data is sampled to create visualizations reasonably quickly that are responsive to interactivity. Too many data points
on a visual can bog it down, and can detract from the visibility of trends".
This link explains it more: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-high-density-scatter-charts#how-high-density-
scatter-charts-work
upvoted 2 times

Selected Answer: C
When using the High Density Sampling algorithm for scatter charts, accurate distribution of the data is the goal, and implied visual density is not
the goal. For example, you might see a scatter chart with lots of circles that overlap (density) in a certain area, and imagine many data points
must be clustered there; since the High Density Sampling algorithm can use one circle to represent many data points, such implied visual density
(or "clustering") will not show up. To get more detail in a given area, you can use slicers to zoom in. Would go with C on this one, B would be to
spot a trend. C would be accurate since it makes users more likely to spot patterns.

You have a Power BI report that contains three pages named Page1, Page2, and Page3. All the pages have the same slicers.
You need to ensure that all the filters applied to Page1 apply to Page1 and Page3 only.
What should you do?
A. On each page, modify the interactions of the slicer.
B. Enable visibility of the slicers on Page1 and Page3. Disable visibility of the slicer on Page2.
C. Sync the slicers on Page1 and Page3.
Correct Answer: A
Control which page visuals are affected by slicers
By default, slicers on report pages affect all the other visualizations on that page, including each other. As you choose values in the list and
date slicers that you just created, notice the effects on the other visualizations. The filtered data is an intersection of the values selected in
both slicers.
Use visual interactions to exclude some page visualizations from being affected by others. On the Overview page, the Total Sales Variance by
FiscalMonth and
District Manager chart shows overall comparative data for district managers by month, which is information that you want to keep visible. Use
visual interactions to keep slicer selections from filtering this chart.
1. Go to the Overview page of the report, and then select the DM slicer you previously created.
2. On the Power BI Desktop menu, select the Format menu under Visual Tools, and then select Edit interactions.
3. Filter controls, each with a Filter and a None option, appear above all the visuals on the page. Initially, the Filter option is preselected on all
the controls.
4. Select the None option in the filter control above the Total Sales Variance by FiscalMonth and District Manager chart to stop the DM slicer

What should you do?
A. Clear Allow recipients to share your dashboard and Allow users to build new content using the underlying datasets for the dataset.
B. Apply row-level security (RLS) to the shared dataset.
C. Select the Allow end users to export both summarized and underlying data from the service or Report Server Export data option for the
report.
D. Select the Don't allow end users to export any data from the service or Report Server Export data option for the report.
Correct Answer: D
Besides the various permissions you can set, there are also two different options to disable the export functionality. First of all is the Export
data in general and second the Export to Excel as a specific setting. Both have the same setup for permissions

There you'll find "Export data" section and 3 options. The last one is "Don't allow end users to export any data from the service or Report server"
In PBI service, you can also allow or forbid to export data, but there the only option to prevent data from beeing exportet is "None".

The export functionality can be disabled on several levels. First, Power BI Service admins can disable this functionality on tenant level. With that,
nobody will be able to export the data. More about that later. Second, as a dataset owner you can decide if you allow your users to export the
data. This is managed in dataset settings, but only changeable in Power BI desktop.
No matter what settings are applied in Power BI desktop, the tenant settings will overrule this. In the end the Power BI Service admin decides
what options are possible to use.

A. Grant the Read and Build permissions for the Power BI datasets to the Azure network security team.
B. Configure custom instructions for the Request access feature that instructs users to contact the Azure network security team.
C. Instruct the Azure network security team to create security groups. Configure RLS to use the groups.
D. Add the Azure network security team as members of the RLS role.
Correct Answer: C
Configure row-level security group membership, Working with members
Add members -
In the Power BI service, you can add a member to the role by typing in the email address or name of the user or security group.
You can use the following groups to set up row level security.

You have four sales regions. Each region has multiple sales managers.
You implement row-level security (RLS) in a data model. You assign the relevant mail-enabled security group to each role.
You have sales reports that enable analysis by region. The sales managers can view the sales records of their region. The sales managers are
prevented from viewing records from other regions.
A sales manager changes to a different region.
You need to ensure that the sales manager can see the correct sales data.
What should you do?
A. Change the Microsoft Power BI license type of the sales manager.
B. From Microsoft Power BI Desktop, edit the Row-Level Security setting for the reports.
C. Manage the permissions of the underlying dataset.
D. Request that the sales manager be added to the correct Azure Active Directory group.
Correct Answer: D
You can use the following groups to set up row level security.
* Distribution Group
* Mail-enabled Group - This group also contains a list of email addresses of members and can also be used to control access to OneDrive and

You have more than 100 published datasets.

Ten of the datasets were verified to meet your corporate quality standards.
You need to ensure that the 10 verified datasets appear at the top of the list of published datasets whenever users search for existing datasets.
What should you do?
A. Promote the datasets.
B. Certify the datasets.
C. Feature the dataset on the home page.
D. Publish the datasets in an app.
Correct Answer: B
Once logged in, you will be presented with a list of datasets that you can access from your various workspaces. This is one reason why having
official datasets promoted and certified is recommended, as these will appear at the top of the list, with certified datasets appearing before
promoted datasets.
Note: Power BI provides two ways you can endorse your valuable, high-quality content to increase its visibility: promotion and certification.
Promotion: Promotion is a way to highlight content you think is valuable and worthwhile for others to use. It encourages the collaborative use
and spread of content within an organization.
Any content owner, as well as any member with write permissions on the workspace where the content is located, can promote the content
when they think it's good enough for sharing.
Certification: Certification means that the content meets the organization's quality standards and can be regarded as reliable, authoritative, and
ready for use across the organization.
Currently it is possible to endorse
Datasets -
Dataflows -
Reports -
Apps -
If dataset discoverability has been enabled in your organization, endorsed datasets can be made discoverable. When a dataset is discoverable,
users who don't have access to it will be able to find it and request access.

You have a Power BI workspace named Workspace1 that contains a dataset named DS1 and a report named RPT1.
A user wants to create a report by using the data in DS1 and publish the report to another workspace.
You need to provide the user with the appropriate access. The solution must minimize the number of access permissions granted to the user.
What should you do?
A. Add the user as a Viewer of Workspace1.
B. Grant the Build permission for DS1 to the user.
C. Share RPT1 with the user.
D. Add the user as a member of Workspace1.
Correct Answer: B
More granular permissions -
Power BI provides the Build permission as a complement to the existing permissions, Read and Reshare. All users who already had Read
permission for datasets via app permissions, sharing, or workspace access at that time also got Build permission for those same datasets.
They got Build permission automatically because Read permission already granted them the right to build new content on top of the dataset, by
using Analyze in Excel or Export.
With this more granular Build permission, you can choose who can only view the content in the existing report or dashboard and who can create
content connected to the underlying datasets.
If your dataset is being used by a report outside the dataset workspace, you can't delete that dataset. Instead, you see an error message.

At most, you can share with 100 users or groups in a single share action. However, you can give more than 500 users access to an item. Here
are some suggestions:
Share multiple times by specifying the users individually.
Share with a user group that contains all the users.
Create the report or dashboard in a workspace, then create an app from the workspace. You can share the app with many more people.

Overview -
Litware, Inc. is an online retailer that uses Power BI.
Litware plans to leverage data from an Azure SQL database that stores data for the company's live e-commerce website.
Litware uses Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to authenticate users.
Existing Environment. Sales Data
Litware has online sales data that has the SQL schema shown in the following table.
In the Date table, the date_id column has a format of yyyymmdd and the month column has a format of yyyymm.
The week column in the Date table and the week_id column in the Weekly_Returns table have a format of yyyyww.
In the Sales table, the sales_id column represents a unique transaction.
The region id column can be managed by only one sales manager.
Existing Environment. Data Concerns
You are concerned with the quality and completeness of the sales data. You must ensure that negative and missing sales_amount values do NOT
contribute to the total sales amount calculation.
Existing Environment. Reporting Requirements
Litware identifies the following reporting requirements:
Executives require a visual that shows sales by region.
Executives require a visual that shows returns by region manager and the sales managers that report to them.
The sales managers must be able to see only the sales data of their respective region.
The sales managers require a visual to analyze sales performance versus sales targets.
The sales department requires reports that contain the number of sales transactions.
Users must be able to see the month in each report as shown in the following example: Feb 2020.
The customer service department requires a visual that can be filtered by both sales month and ship month independently.
The maximum allowed latency to include transactions in reports is five minutes.
Question
You need to create the required relationship for the executive's visual.
What should you do before you can create the relationship?
A. Change the data type of Sales[region_id] to Whole Number.
B. Change the data type of Sales[region_id] to Decimal Number.
C. In the Sales table, add a measure for Sum(sales_amount).
D. Change the data type of Sales[sales_id] to Text.
Correct Answer: A
The data type of Sales[region_id] must be changed from varchar to Whole Number, as Sales[region_id] is Integer.

A (88%) 13%

Question
You need to get data from the Microsoft SQL Server tables.
What should you use to configure the connection?
A. Import that uses a Microsoft account
B. Import that uses a database credential
C. DirectQuery that uses a database credential
D. DirectQuery that uses the end-user's credentials
Correct Answer: D
With DirectQuery, queries are sent back to your Azure SQL Database as you explore the data in the report view.
After you publish an Azure SQL DirectQuery dataset to the service, you can enable single sign-on (SSO) using Azure Active Directory (Azure AD)
OAuth2 for your end users.
When the SSO option is enabled and your users access reports built atop the data source, Power BI sends their authenticated Azure AD
credentials in the queries to the Azure SQL database or data warehouse. This option enables Power BI to respect the security settings that are
configured at the data source level.

It's a little confusing.

SQL Server, which is on-premises ... strange.
If it's a writing error and Azure SQL database is meant in the question as well, I would go for answer D.
When you follow the link in the explanation of the solution provided, there is stated that you can enable SSO, so that end users use their own
OAuth2 credentials.
Anyway, if Microsoft SQL Server is meant actually, you can also enable AD SSO via Kerberos, but I'm not sure if this is the best solution.

Question #1 Topic 6
Introductory Info
Case Study -

General Overview -
Northwind Traders is a specialty food import company.
The company recently implemented Power BI to better understand its top customers, products, and suppliers.
Business Issues -
The sales department relies on the IT department to generate reports in Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS). The IT department takes
too long to generate the reports and often misunderstands the report requirements.
Existing Environment. Data Sources
Northwind Traders uses the data sources shown in the following table.
Source2 is exported daily from a third-party system and stored in Microsoft SharePoint Online.
Existing Environment. Customer Worksheet
Source2 contains a single worksheet named Customer Details. The first 11 rows of the worksheet are shown in the following table.
All the fields in Source2 are mandatory.

The Address column in Customer Details is the billing address, which can differ from the shipping address.
Existing Environment. Azure SQL Database
Source1 contains the following tables:
Orders
Products
Suppliers
Categories
Order Details
Sales Employees
The Orders table contains the following columns.
The Order Details table contains the following columns.
The address in the Orders table is the shipping address, which can differ from the billing address.
The Products table contains the following columns.
The Categories table contains the following columns.
The Suppliers table contains the following columns.
The Sales Employees table contains the following columns.

Each employee in the Sales Employees table is assigned to one sales region. Multiple employees can be assigned to each region.
Requirements. Report Requirements
Northwind Traders requires the following reports:
Top Products
Top Customers
On-Time Shipping
The Top Customers report will show the top 20 customers based on the highest sales amounts in a selected order month or quarter, product
category, and sales region.
The Top Products report will show the top 20 products based on the highest sales amounts sold in a selected order month or quarter, sales region,
and product category. The report must also show which suppliers provide the top products.
The On-Time Shipping report will show the following metrics for a selected shipping month or quarter:
The percentage of orders that were shipped late by country and shipping region
Customers that had multiple late shipments during the last quarter
Northwind Traders defines late orders as those shipped after the required shipping date.
The warehouse shipping department must be notified if the percentage of late orders within the current month exceeds 5%.
The reports must show historical data for the current calendar year and the last three calendar years.
Requirements. Technical Requirements
Northwind Traders identifies the following technical requirements:
A single dataset must support all three reports.
The reports must be stored in a single Power BI workspace.
Report data must be current as of 7 AM Pacific Time each day.
The reports must provide fast response times when users interact with a visualization.
The data model must minimize the size of the dataset as much as possible, while meeting the report requirements and the technical
requirements.
Requirements. Security Requirements
Access to the reports must be granted to Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) security groups only. An Azure AD security group exists for each
department.
The sales department must be able to perform the following tasks in Power BI:
Create, edit, and delete content in the reports.
Manage permissions for workspaces, datasets, and reports.
Publish, unpublish, update, and change the permissions for an app.
Assign Azure AD groups role-based access to the reports workspace.
Users in the sales department must be able to access only the data of the sales region to which they are assigned in the Sales Employees table.
Power BI has the following row-level security (RLS) Table filter DAX expression for the Sales Employees table.
[EmailAddress] = USERNAME()
RLS will be applied only to the sales department users. Users in all other departments must be able to view all the data.
Question
You need to create the dataset.
Which dataset mode should you use?
A. Import
B. DirectQuery
C. Composite
D. live connection
Correct Answer: C
The three dataset modes are:
Import -
DirectQuery -
Composite -
Composite mode -
Composite mode can mix Import and DirectQuery modes, or integrate multiple DirectQuery data sources. Models developed in Composite mode
support configuring the storage mode for each model table. This mode also supports calculated tables (defined with DAX).
The table storage mode can be configured as Import, DirectQuery, or Dual. A table configured as Dual storage mode is both Import and
DirectQuery, and this setting allows the Power BI service to determine the most efficient mode to use on a query-by-query basis.
Note: A single dataset must support all three reports.
requirements.
Top Products -
Top Customers -
On-Time Shipping -
Incorrect:
* DirectQuery mode is an alternative to Import mode. Models developed in DirectQuery mode don't import data. Instead, they consist only of
metadata defining the model structure. When the model is queried, native queries are used to retrieve data from the underlying data source.
* Import
However, while there are compelling advantages associated with Import models, there are disadvantages, too:
The entire model must be loaded to memory before Power BI can query the model, which can place pressure on available capacity resources,
especially as the number and size of Import models grow

A (54%) C (46%)

Selected Answer: A
You wouldn't use composite for all. I would say import as the SQL Server data is only 2GB and excel is really small. Also, only need it refreshing
once a day so this dataset is very small. Answer is A (Import)
upvoted 6 times

Another key sentence is "The reports must provide fast response times when users interact with a visualization."
Using DirectQuery increases the latency when interacting with a viz, because the data needs to be fetched from the source at every refresh,
an issue which doesn't exist when the data is imported. A is correct.

Composite Model means now you can have a model, that very large tables of that are coming from the DirectQuery connection, without the need

The answer is C. It's a trick question. It asks how the access for the sales department USERS needs to be set up. This requires RLS to work, and
RLS won't work when they are member or admin. The requirements listed that require admin rights refer to the sales DEPARTMENT, not to the
sales USERS.

I believe Admin Access must be given to the Sales Department staff as they must be able to "Manage permissions for workspaces, datasets, and
reports.". With member access they can only manage dataset permission and add members or others (with lower permissions) to the workspace
(not remove, etc...). Source: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-roles-new-workspaces
upvoted 1 times

I cannot find the right answer .
"The sales department must be able to perform the following tasks in Power BI:
Publish, unpublish, update, and change the permissions for an app."
The above tells me it should at least have Member access.
"Users in the sales department must be able to access only the data of the sales region to which they are assigned in the Sales Employees
table."
The above tells me they should have at most Viewer access. Member access overrides any RLS that is set up, and the sales department would
view all data.

Question #1 Topic 7
Introductory Info
Case Study -

Overview -
Contoso, Ltd. is a manufacturing company that produces sports equipment. Contoso holds quarterly board meetings for which financial analysts
manually prepare
Microsoft Excel reports, including balance sheets and profit and loss statements for each of the company's four business units.
Existing Environment -
Data and Sources -

Data for the reports comes from the sources shown in the following table.
The balance sheet data is unrelated to the profit and loss results other than they both relate to dates.
Balance Sheet Data -

The balance sheet data is imported and includes the final monthly balances of each account in the format shown in the following table.
The balance sheet data always includes a row for each account for each month.
Product Catalog Data -

The product catalog shows how products roll up to product categories, which roll up to the business units. The product list is provided in the
format shown in the following table.
Revenue data is provided at the date and product level. Expense data is provided at the date and department level.
Business Issues -
Historically, it has taken two analysts a week to prepare the reports for the quarterly board meetings. Also, there is usually at least one issue each
quarter where a value in a report is wrong because of a bad cell reference in an Excel formula. On occasion, there are conflicting results in the
reports because the products and departments that roll up to each business unit are not defined consistently.
Requirements -
Planned Changes -
Contoso plans to automate and standardize the quarterly reporting process by using Power BI. The company wants to reduce how long it takes to
populate the reports to less than two days. The company wants to create common logic for the business units, products, and departments. The
logic will be used across all reports, including but not limited to the quarterly reporting for the board.
Technical Requirements -
Contoso wants the reports and datasets refreshed with minimum manual effort.
The company wants to provide the board with a single package of reports that will contain custom navigation and links to supplementary
information.
Maintenance, including manually updating data and access, must be minimized as much as possible.
Security Requirements -
The reports must be made available to the board from powerbi.com. An Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) group will be used to share information
with the board.
Contoso identifies the following security requirements for analyst access:
Analysts must be able to access all balance sheet and product catalog data.
Analysts must be able to access only the profit and loss data of their respective business unit.
Analysts must be able to create new reports from the dataset that contains the profit and loss data, but the reports built by the analysts must NOT
be included in the quarterly reports for the board.
Analysts must NOT be able to share the quarterly reports with anyone.
Analysts must NOT be able to make new reports by using the balance sheet data.
Report Requirements -
You plan to relate the balance sheet table to a date table in Power BI in a many-to-one relationship based on the last day of the month. At least
one of the balance sheet reports in the quarterly reporting package must show the ending balances for the quarter, as well as for the previous
quarter.
The date table will contain the columns shown in the following table.
The definitions and attributes for the products, departments, and business units must be consistent across all the reports.
The board must be able to get the following information from the quarterly reports:
Revenue trends over time
The ending balances of each account
Changes in long-term liabilities from the previous quarter
The percent of total revenue contributed by each product category
A comparison of quarterly revenue versus the same quarter from the previous year
The reports must be updated with the latest data by 5 AM each day.
Question
You need to create the relationship between the product list and the revenue results. The solution must minimize the time it takes to render
visuals.
What should you set as the relationship cardinality?
A. One to one
B. Many to many
C. Many to one
D. One to many
Correct Answer: D
One product in the product list can occur many times in the revenue results.
Note 1: One to many (1:*): In a one-to-many relationship, the column in one table has only one instance of a particular value, and the other
related table can have more than one instance of a value.

why we should add up the end balance of balance sheet account
upvoted 1 times

Selected Answer: A
Balance is a semi-additive measure! It is summed by other dimensions but not over time.
LASTDATE() returns the last date of the filtered period and that represents exactly what we need: the balance of the month if a month is filtered,
the balance of the quarter if a quarter is filtered, and so on.
SQLBI has a good example here: https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/semi-additive-measures-in-dax/

A). A balance sheet is a snapshot of the business. The end of month december balance is the same as the Q4 balance. Using DATESQTD creates
a running total, summing Oct, nov and december. This is not correct.
upvoted 1 times

Selected Answer: A
It doesn't make sense to sum balance amounts. For instance, if I have 1000€ in my bank account and make zero transactions for an entire week,
my balance at the end of the week would be 1000€, not 7000€. We need to use LASTDATE, because my balance at the end of the week is my
balance at the last day of the week.
Have a look additive, semi-additive, and non-additive measures.

But balance sheet is a snapshot. It doesn't make sense to sum up the past 3 months' figure together.
upvoted 1 times

Selected Answer: B
B) DATESQTD
The Balance sheet report is a quarterly report so it needs to have the sum of the last three months. The Balances table is reporting in monthly
intervals, so it needs to be summed up to produce a quarterly result. That is where DATESQTD comes in, as it states: "Returns a table that
contains a column of the dates for the quarter to date, in the current context." LASTDATE() will instead produce a result: "Returns the last date in
the current context for the specified column of dates." Which would only show the last month's result.

You need to design the data model and the relationships for the Customer Details worksheet and the Orders table by using Power BI. The solution

Correct Answer:
Box 1: Yes -
Need to link the tables for: The Top Customers report will show the top 20 customers based on the highest sales amounts in a selected order
month or quarter, product category, and sales region.
Box 2: No -
It should be set to Integer.
Box 3: No -
Can use the Region field of the Customer Details table.
The Orders table only has the ShipRegion field

Answer should be No - Yes - No. According to the sample data the CustomerID in Customer Details is a number (1 through 10 is shown in the
example data) and the CustomerID in the Orders table has an example value of VINET, which looks like it corresponds to the value of
CustomerCRMID instead of CustomerID from the Customer Details worksheet so the first answer should be No. The second answer should be

be text too.
3/ NO: from Customer Details
upvoted 5 times

No-yes-no
upvoted 2 times

no - no - no
1. no, because Customer Details CustomerID is int and Order CustomerID is text - not the same content
2. no, because there is no common column where we could join on. Furthermore, it should be avoided to join via text columns, because integer
fields in relations are faster
3. no, because sales region is nowhere defined as the ship-to country or the sold-to country. So it can't be said, that it MUST come from the
Orders.
upvoted 2 times

According to the example value in the CustomerID column of the ORDERS table, this table contains strings such as "VINET" which can't be
converted to an integer. Therefore, in my opinion, the primary and foreign keys of the relationship must be TEXT and not INTEGER.
As a consequence, I believe the second statement is TRUE

You need to design the data model to meet the report requirements.
What should you do in Power BI Desktop?
A. From Power Query, add a date table. Create an active relationship to the OrderDate column in the Orders table and an inactive relationship
to the ShippedDate column in the Orders table.
B. From Power Query, add columns to the Orders table to calculate the calendar quarter and the calendar month of the OrderDate column.
C. From Power BI Desktop, use the Auto date/time option when creating the reports.
D. From Power Query, use a DAX expression to add columns to the Orders table to calculate the calendar quarter of the OrderDate column, the
calendar month of the OrderDate column, the calendar quarter of the ShippedDate column, and the calendar month of the ShippedDate
column.
Correct Answer: C
On-Time Shipping report -
The Auto date/time is a data load option in Power BI Desktop. The purpose of this option is to support convenient time intelligence reporting
based on date columns loaded into a model. Specifically, it allows report authors using your data model to filter, group, and drill down by using
calendar time periods (years, quarters, months, and days). What's important is that you don't need to explicitly develop these time intelligence
capabilities.
When the option is enabled, Power BI Desktop creates a hidden auto date/time table for each date column, providing all of the following
conditions are true:
The table storage mode is Import
The column data type is date or date/time
The column isn't the "many" side of a model relationship

You need to create a relationship in the dataset for RLS.
Hot Area:
Correct Answer:
Box 1: many-to-many -
With composite models, you can establish a many-to-many relationship between tables, which removes requirements for unique values in
tables. It also removes previous workarounds, such as introducing new tables only to establish relationships.
Box 2: Orders table -

The Orders table has a ShipRegion column.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/transform-model/desktop-create-and-manage-relationships

Many-to-Many
Customer details
Sales employees should see the sales of their region only, so all sales ordered by customers whose billing address belongs to the sales
employee's region.
Therefore, the relationship between sales employees (region) and customer details (region) should be many-to-many (a sales employee has many
customers in his region and a customer in a region can have many sales employees for that region).
In this case, as the customer table is related to the order table, the sales employees will only be able to see the orders of the customers in their
region.

1- You definitely don't need a gateway as Azure SQL is could based.
2- The question says that "transactions must be updated within 5 minutes". Therefore, (unless you plan to create a composite model) you should
connect to the DB in direct query mode, hence you don't need to schedule any refresh.
3- Azure SQL allow to use OAuth2. This doesn't mean that you can't use basic authentication anymore. The question asks if you CAN use basic
authentication and you can still use it, even though you have the option to use azure authentication.
In my opinion the answer is : NO, NO , YES !

No - Azure SQL Server, therefore no need for an on-premise Gateway as Service and Azure are in the cloud.
No - DirectQuery mode for the DB connection, so no need to schedule a refresh. DirectQuery is a live connection.
No - Azure SQL supports the following connections from Power BI: Windows, Database and Microsoft Account. (Basic is reserved for Power
Query Online. Do not confuse Database with Basic.):

Question
HOTSPOT -
You need to grant access to the business unit analysts.
What should you configure? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
Hot Area:
Correct Answer:
Box 1: App permissions -

App permissions.
This section describes the kinds of permissions you can grant to the specified users
* Allow all users to connect to the app's underlying datasets using the Build permission
This option grants build permission on the app's underlying datasets.
* Etc.
Note: Contoso identifies the following security requirements for analyst access:
✑ Analysts must be able to access all balance sheet and product catalog data.
✑ Analysts must be able to access only the profit and loss data of their respective business unit.
✑ Analysts must be able to create new reports from the dataset that contains the profit and loss data, but the reports built by the analysts
must NOT be included in the quarterly reports for the board.
✑ Analysts must NOT be able to share the quarterly reports with anyone.
✑ Analysts must NOT be able to make new reports by using the balance sheet data.
Incorrect:
Not Member role: Would grant too much permissions.
Not Viewer role: Need more granular permissions.
Box 2: Reshare -
App permissions,
This section describes the kinds of permissions you can grant to the specified users
* Allow users to share the app and the app's underlying datasets using the share permission
This option grants users reshare permission on the app's underlying datasets.
* Etc.
Note: Analysts must be able to create new reports from the dataset that contains the profit and loss data, but the reports built by the analysts
must NOT be included in the quarterly reports for the board.
Reference:

To be able to build new reports based on underlying dataset you need Build permission, not Reshare permission so the second option should be
Build.

The Viewer role only grants "read only" access to the dataset. Therefore it cannot be correct for this question.

That is why we grant the Build right in the second part of the question. Viewer role + Build right on the dataset is perfectly valid and is the

"Access permission to an app" is correct, as this allows users to build contents with the datasets in the app (which is what the business analyst

Question
HOTSPOT -
How should you distribute the reports to the board? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
Hot Area:
Correct Answer:
Box 1: Using a workspace membership

Note 1: The company wants to provide the board with a single package of reports that will contain custom navigation and links to
supplementary information.
Sharing is the easiest way to give people access to your reports and dashboards in the Power BI service. You can share with people inside or
outside your organization.ֲ¨
Where you can share:
You can share reports and dashboards from My Workspace.
You can share from workspaces other than My Workspace, if you have the Admin or Member role in the workspace. If you have the Contributor
or Viewer role, you can share if you have Reshare permissions.
You can share from the Power BI mobile apps.
You can't share directly from Power BI Desktop.
Box 2: A mail-enabled security group in Azure Active Directory
Mail-Enabled Security Group -

This group also contains a list of email addresses of members and can also be used to control access to OneDrive and SharePoint.
The Mail-Enabled Security Group can be created in the Office 365 Admin Portal
Note: The reports must be made available to the board from powerbi.com. An Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) group will be used to share
information with the board.
Incorrect:
* Distribution Group
This group can also be called and Distribution List. The Distribution Group is a group which contains a list of email addresses of members, all
of whom will be sent an email when an email is sent to the distribution groups email address.
The Distribution Group can be created in the Azure Active Directory

A. From each report in powerbi.com, select Refresh visuals.
B. From Power BI Desktop, download the PBIX file and refresh the data.
C. Configure a scheduled refresh without using an on-premises data gateway.
D. Configure a scheduled refresh by using an on-premises data gateway.
Correct Answer: D
You have options available with the scheduled refresh for the On-premises data gateway (personal mode) and the On-premises data gateway.

From your link:
"Scheduled refresh of reports isn’t supported with Dynamics 365 (on-premises) datasets that are published to the Power BI service. You can
refresh reports using in Microsoft Power BI Desktop or Microsoft Office Excel and then upload the reports to the Power BI service."
So D is impossible. C is correct.

Question
What is the minimum number of Power BI datasets needed to support the reports?
A. a single imported dataset
B. two imported datasets
C. two DirectQuery datasets
D. a single DirectQuery dataset
Correct Answer: B
Note:
Analysts must be able to create new reports from the dataset that contains the profit and loss data, but the reports built by the analysts must
NOT be included in the quarterly reports for the board.
Two datasets are required.
Need DAX for: A comparison of quarterly revenue versus the same quarter from the previous year. Also see other questions in this Case study
which uses DAX expressions.
Incorrect:
Not DirectQuery: DirectQuery Limited Transformations.
You are not able to use all of the normal Power Query transformation features. Particular DAX functions are not available in this method as well.
So if your data is poorly structured or needing lots of transformation, sometimes Direct Query is not a viable option.

You can have multiple options. A single imported dataset can meet the requirements as well.
P&L is Azure SQLDB - normally DirectQuery. If there is an option - one DirectQuery and one import will be more appropriate.
