NEW QUESTION 2

A developer must register a step using the Plug-in registration tool.
You need to associate the correct Event Pipeline Stage of Execution with its purpose.
Which stage should you associate with each description? To answer, drag the appropriate stages to the correct descriptions. Each stage 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.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

• A. Mastered
• B. Not Mastered

Answer: A

Explanation:
The event pipeline allows you to configure when in the event the plug-in code will execute. The event pipeline
is divided into the following events and stages: Box 1: PreValidation
Pre-event/Pre-Validation
This stage executes before anything else, even before basic validation if the triggering action is even allowed based on security. Therefore, it would be possible to trigger the plug-in code even without actually having permission to do so and great consideration must be used when writing a pre-validation plug-in. Also, execution in this stage might not be part of the database transaction.
Examples:- security checks being performed to verify the calling or logged on user has the correct permissions to perform the intended operation.
Box 2: PreOperation Pre-event/Pre-Operation
This stage executes after validation, but before the changes has been committed to database. This is one of the most commonly used stages.
Example uses:
If and “update” plug-in should update the same record, it is best practice to use the pre-operation stage and modify the properties. That way the plug-in update is done within same DB transaction without needing additional web service update call.
Box 3: PostOperation
Plug-ins which are to execute after the main operation. Plug-ins registered in this stage are executed within the database transaction.
This stage executed after changes have been committed to database. This is one of the most used stages. Example uses:
Most of the “Create” plugins are post-event. This allows access to the created GUID and creation of relationships to newly created record.

NEW QUESTION 3

A company is preparing to go live with their Dynamics 365Sales solution, but first they need to migrate data from a legacy system. The company is migrating accounts in batches of 1,000.
When the data is saved to Dynamics 365 Sales, the IDs for the new accounts must be output to a log file. You have the following code:

For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.

• A. Mastered
• B. Not Mastered

Answer: A

Explanation:
Box 1: No
Box 2: Yes
ContinueOnError: When true, continue processing the next request in the collection even if a fault has been returned from processing the current request in the collection. When false, do not continue processing the next request.
ReturnResponses: When true, return responses from each message request processed. When false, do not return responses.
When false, the Responses collection will not be empty if errors are returned. If errors are returned, there will be one response item in the collection for each processed request that returned a fault and Fault will be set to the actual fault that occurred.
Box 3: No
Box 4: Yes
For example, in a request collection that contains six requests where the third and fifth request return faults, the following table indicates what the Responses collection would contain.
ContinueOnError=true, ReturnResponses=false: 2 response items: 2 have Fault set to a value. Reference:

A university has implemented Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement. Several departments use opportunity records to bid for funding for projects within their own departments.
Each department’s opportunities are not visible to other departments. However, there are times when two departments need to work together on an opportunity.
You need to configure the security to meet the business requirements.
Solution: Use access team templates and give access to members in the two departments. Does the solution meet the goal?

• A. Yes
• B. No

Answer: A

Explanation:
Access Team template
The privileges assigned to the access team through Access Team Templates. Access Team template allows you to create a template for the entities on which “Access Teams” option is enabled. You can grant or restrict access to the entity records through “Access Rights”. Essentially, this is like a record-based security model on an entity record for specific users.
Once the access team template is created and added to the entity form, you can start adding users. For example, on an opportunity record add a new user in the Access Team Template sub-grid.

An organization has an Azure SQL Database instance that must be synchronized daily with data from Dynamics 365 Sales. A large amount of data might need to be synchronized on some days.
You need to reduce the time required to synchronize data. Solution:
Enable change tracking for entities that will be synchronized.
Use the Data Export Service to sync data between the database and Dynamics 365 Sales. Does the solution meet the goal?

• A. Yes
• B. No

Answer: A

Explanation:
Large organizations that synchronize their data with external data sources can now enable entities for change tracking. You can export or retrieve a selected set of data, and then keep the external data warehouse in sync.
The Data Export Service is an add-on service made available on Microsoft AppSource that adds the ability to replicate data from Common Data Service database to an Azure SQL Database store in a customer-owned Azure subscription.
The Data Export Service intelligently synchronizes the entire data initially and thereafter synchronizes on a continuous basis as changes occur (delta changes) in the system.
You can use the Data Export Service with model-driven apps in Dynamics 365, such as Dynamics 365 Sales and Dynamics 365 Customer Service.

A Common Data Service (CDS) environment has two custom entities named Building code and Work item. Building code has a code date custom field and Work item has an elapsed time custom field. Construction workers use a consolidated custom form with data from both entities to fill.in their daily work items.
A JavaScript library is used with these custom entities and fields to apply complex logic.
You need to ensure that the JavaScript library continues to function as originally designed if other developers expand the environment.
Solution: In the JavaScript library, add Building code with Code date and Work item with Elapsed time in the dependencies tab.
Does the solution meet the goal?

• A. Yes
• B. No

Answer: A

Explanation:
Within a solution you can define dependencies within solution components. Up until Dynamics 365 for Customer Engagement apps version 9.0 the main purpose of these dependencies was to prevent the deletion of a solution component when another solution component depended on it.
The following image shows the dependencies tab within the web resource form. Dependencies between web resources are set in the top list.
