A company uses Dataverse to store information about its products and stock levels.
The company requires a solution that allows existing customers and potential new customers to perform the following self-service actions:
* Locate information about available products.
* Register their information for marketing materials.
* Create their own orders.
You need to recommend a Microsoft Power Platform component that meets the requirements.
Which component should you recommend?
Correct Answer:
C
Explanation
A data gateway creates a secure bridge between your on-premises data and cloud services like Power Apps. Since customer visit data lives on-premises at retail store locations, the gateway allows the canvas app to access and display that data when users launch it. Without a gateway, the app cannot reach on-premises databases. Other connectivity options like direct connections or APIs would not provide the secure, managed approach that Power Platform requires for on-premises data access.
A company is considering using Power Pages for its website.
You need to determine whether the use cases for Power pages meet the company's requirements.
What is a use case Power Pages?
Correct Answer:
B
Explanation
Power Pages is the Microsoft Power Platform component built specifically for creating public-facing websites where unauthenticated external users can access information. In this case, unauthenticated customers need to browse product data from mobile devices. Power Pages handles external authentication, responsive design, and data display perfectly for this use case. Canvas apps and model-driven apps are designed for authenticated internal users, not public external access.
You need to generate a Power Pages site for your company. You decide to use Copilot for site creation to generate your site.
You need to select the site components that Copilot for site creation will create or set for you based on your prompt. Which three site components should you select? Each correct answer presents a complete solution. Choose three. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer:
A, B, E
A manufacturing company receives daily shipments that arrive at any time during the day.
A mailroom manager signs for the shipment, and then sends an email from Microsoft Outlook to the receptionist when the shipment is available. The receptionist sends a text message to each driver to let them know that items within the shipment are ready for delivery.
The company builds a Microsoft Power Automate flow that sends the text messages automatically to all drivers as soon as the receptionist receives the email.
You need to identify the component that allows the Power Automate flow to start without the intervention of the receptionist.
Which component should you select?
Correct Answer:
D
You develop a Power Virtual Agents chatbot in a Microsoft Teams channel named Expenses.
You need to identify the operations the chatbot can perform.
Which two actions can the chatbot perform? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer:
B, C
Explanation
When you export the default solution from a sandbox environment, you capture only the business process flow configuration without any data, user records, or other modifications. Exporting the default solution is the standard way to migrate components like business process flows between environments while keeping them clean and separate from production data. Simply copying the flow or using other migration methods would either bring unwanted data or create configuration issues.
A company uses Microsoft 365, Power Platform, and Dynamics 365. You do not assign permissions to any licensed users.
Users are able to create and edit Power Apps canvas apps.
In which environment are users creating and editing the apps?
Correct Answer:
B
Explanation
Building a self-service solution to handle sales support calls requires detecting the caller's location and translating their native language to English. AI Builder includes language detection models that identify what language a caller is speaking. Microsoft Azure Cognitive Services provides translation capabilities and geolocation features to detect where the call originates. Together these two components give you the language detection and translation functionality needed for this multilingual support scenario.
Question 7
Users within a company use Flow for personal productivity.
Users often overwrite their working flows by editing the definitions and are unable to undo changes after saving a flow.
You need to ensure that users can revert a flow to the current state.
Which two options can you use? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer:
A, C
Explanation
A: You can export a flow as a package and import it into a different environment, or use it to restore the in the same environment at a later point in time.
C: The ability to make a copy of your flow is often useful when you want to create a flow similar to something you've already created. Or, if you want to maintain a draft of your working flow as you work on adding more functionality.
Here's how:
Go to your My flows page. Click on the More (...) menu item next to the flow that you want to create a copy of. Click on the Save As command.

FAQ
PL-900 Exam FAQ
Common questions about the exam itself
Is PL-900 harder than it seems and what should I focus on most?
PL-900 is fundamentals level and tests conceptual understanding rather than deep implementation skills. Most candidates underestimate the distinctions between canvas and model-driven apps, cloud and desktop flows, and the specific capabilities of Power Pages and Copilot Studio, so expect scenario questions that require you to pick the right component for a business need.
Do I need any Microsoft certifications or experience before taking PL-900?
There are no formal prerequisites. The exam suits business users, citizen developers, and analysts who want foundational Power Platform knowledge. Basic familiarity with Microsoft 365 and cloud concepts helps, but is not required.
How long should I study for PL-900?
Most candidates need one to two weeks of preparation depending on their prior exposure to Power Platform. If you work with Microsoft 365 regularly, you may need less time. The official Microsoft Learn learning path covers all exam objectives.
What is the actual exam day experience for PL-900?
You get 60 minutes to answer 40 to 60 questions in multiple formats: multiple choice, multiple select, drag and drop, and scenario matching. The exam is scenario-based but contains no hands-on labs or live coding tasks. You sit at a Pearson VUE test center or take an online proctored exam.
What score do I need to pass PL-900?
You need a scaled score of 700 out of 1000 to pass. The scale is not a simple percentage, so 700 does not equal 70 percent of questions correct. The exact percentage depends on question difficulty.
How much does the PL-900 exam cost and where do I register?
The exam costs USD 99 in most regions, though pricing varies by location. You register and schedule through Pearson VUE, Microsoft's official testing partner. Book at least one to two weeks in advance for better time slot availability.
Can I reschedule or retake PL-900 if I don't pass?
You can reschedule free of charge up to 24 hours before your exam appointment. If you fail, you can retake the exam, but you must pay the full exam fee again.
How long does the PL-900 certification stay valid and what renewal does it need?
PL-900 is a fundamentals-level certification and does not expire. Unlike associate and expert certifications, it requires no annual renewal or maintenance.
What job roles does PL-900 certification map to?
PL-900 suits business users, functional consultants, citizen developers, business analysts, and IT professionals starting with Power Platform. It validates foundational knowledge that is relevant across roles that use Power Apps, Power Automate, or Dataverse.
How does PL-900 relate to other Power Platform exams?
PL-900 is the entry point to Power Platform certification. Role-based exams like PL-100 (Power Platform App Maker) and PL-200 (Power Platform Functional Consultant) build on this foundation but do not require PL-900 as a prerequisite. It is useful preparation for those exams.
