B. Copilot in Outlook
C. Dynamics 365 Customer Service
D. Copilot in Customer Service
E. Copilot in Field Service
F. the Dynamics 365 Field Service mobile app
Show Answer
Correct Answer: E, F
Explanation:
Copilot in Field Service provides AI-driven assistance for organizing, summarizing, and resolving work orders, supporting dispatchers and service operations. The Dynamics 365 Field Service mobile app is the frontline technician experience where contextual Copilot capabilities assist with preparing for and completing customer appointments.

Question 27

A company has a Microsoft Foundry generative AI model. You need to evaluate the model's output to measure the overall quality and coherence of generated responses. The evaluation must use GPT-4o as a judge and return a numeric score for each output. Which type of metric should you use?

A. AI quality (NLP)
B. risk and safety
C. Groundedness
D. AI quality (AI assisted)
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
AI quality (AI assisted) metrics use an LLM such as GPT-4o as a judge to evaluate generated responses for qualities like coherence, relevance, helpfulness, and overall quality, returning numeric scores. AI quality (NLP) relies on traditional metrics, risk and safety evaluates harmful content, and Groundedness measures support by source content rather than overall response quality.

Question 24

Note: This section contains one or more sets of questions with the same scenario and problem. Each question presents a unique solution to the problem. You must determine whether the solution meets the stated goals. More than one solution in the set might solve the problem. It is also possible that none of the solutions in the set solve the problem. After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return. As a result, these questions do not appear on the Review Screen. A company has a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales environment that has Microsoft Copilot enabled. You need to customize Copilot by tailoring how opportunity summaries are generated or how they are presented to users. Solution: You add fields to the opportunity summary. Does this meet the goal?

A. Yes
B. No
Show Answer
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
Yes. Dynamics 365 Sales allows administrators to configure the fields included in Copilot-generated opportunity summaries by adding fields to the opportunity summary configuration. This tailors the generated summaries presented to users.

Question 37

A company processes invoices stored across multiple systems in multiple formats. You need to implement an AI solution to automate the invoice processing. The solution must meet the following requirements: • Automate multi-step invoice processing tasks, including document analysis, data validation, and approval routing. • Enable users to interact directly via Microsoft Teams to review and approve invoices. • Minimize development efforts to define and customize approval workflows. What should you include in the solution?

A. Azure Document Intelligence in Foundry Tools and Azure Logic Apps
B. a SharePoint agent
C. Microsoft Copilot Studio and AI Builder
D. Azure OpenAI and Azure Functions
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Microsoft Copilot Studio combined with AI Builder best fits the requirements. AI Builder provides prebuilt document processing capabilities for extracting invoice data from multiple invoice formats, while Copilot Studio can orchestrate multi-step workflows with Power Automate, support approval routing, and integrate with Microsoft Teams for user interaction, minimizing custom development.

Question 38

A company uses a Microsoft Copilot Studio agent to automate tasks in a web app. During testing, you discover that the automation sometimes fails because of frequent changes to the app's user interface. You need to recommend a solution to ensure that the agent successfully automates the tasks. The solution must minimize changes to the agent. What should you include in the recommendation?

A. Computer Use in Copilot Studio
B. custom models in Azure AI Studio
C. conversation topics in Copilot Studio
D. an agent flow in Copilot Studio
Show Answer
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
Computer Use in Copilot Studio is designed to automate interactions with user interfaces in a human-like way and is more resilient to UI changes than brittle UI automation, minimizing the need to modify the agent when the web application's interface changes.

Question 17

A company has Microsoft Copilot Studio agents. The company plans to deploy custom connectors across development, test and production environments. You need to design an application lifecycle management (ALM) process to ensure consistency and prevent direct editing in production. Which two actions should you include in the design? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

A. Deploy managed solutions to production.
B. Deploy unmanaged solutions to production.
C. Manually rebuild the agents in each environment.
D. Move the agents between the environments by using data export and import.
E. Include agents and connectors in a solution.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: A, E
Explanation:
For Power Platform/Copilot Studio ALM, package agents and custom connectors in a solution so they can be versioned and moved consistently across environments. Deploy managed solutions to production to prevent direct editing and enforce controlled releases. Unmanaged solutions are intended for development, and manually rebuilding or using data export/import is not the recommended ALM approach.

Question 50

A company plans to deploy a Microsoft Copilot Studio agent to enhance customer support. The company stores customer data across ServiceNow, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance, Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, and Excel files in SharePoint Online. You need to recommend a solution to ensure that the agent can deliver accurate and timely responses. What should you recommend?

A. Implement a model router for query handling.
B. Create custom prompts.
C. Implement Microsoft Power Platform connectors.
D. Enable incremental indexing in Azure AI Search.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
The agent must access data stored across ServiceNow, Dynamics 365 Finance, Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, and SharePoint-hosted Excel files. Microsoft Power Platform connectors provide the standard integration mechanism for Copilot Studio to securely connect to these data sources and retrieve current information. The other options do not solve the core requirement of connecting multiple enterprise data sources for accurate and timely responses.

Question 32

You need to recommend a security solution for agents in a Microsoft Power Platform environment. The agents must use only approved connectors and services. The solution must prevent the agents from accessing sensitive data. What should you recommend?

A. Configure Azure Monitor to capture connector activity logs.
B. Enable a Microsoft Dataverse audit.
C. Deploy data loss prevention (DLP) policies in Power Platform.
D. Enable customer-managed keys in Microsoft Dataverse.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Data loss prevention (DLP) policies in Power Platform govern which connectors and services apps, flows, and agents can use by classifying connectors as Business, Non-Business, or Blocked. This enforces use of only approved connectors and helps prevent access to sensitive data. The other options provide auditing, monitoring, or encryption but do not enforce connector usage restrictions.

Question 8

A company has an AI agent that automates the review of customer feedback stored in a cloud database. You plan to generate monthly reports from the agent's output to provide insights into customer sentiment and guide product development and marketing. You need to ensure that the data ingested by the agent is clean and suitable for the intended use. What should you do to prepare the data?

A. Ensure that the size of the database does not exceed 100 GB.
B. Translate the data into a single language.
C. Identify and address biased data.
D. Sort the database by customer last name.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Preparing data for AI analysis includes assessing data quality and mitigating bias so the generated sentiment insights are reliable and appropriate for decision-making. Database size limits, sorting by last name, or translating everything into one language are not general requirements for producing clean, suitable data.

Question 31

A company has an AI business solution that uses Microsoft Copilot Studio agents. You need to recommend prompt best practices to improve the effectiveness of agent interactions. Which two actions should you include in the recommendation? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

A. Track the duration of the average user session.
B. Analyze the prompt length distribution.
C. Regularly test and refine the prompts based on user input.
D. Use clear and specific instructions in the prompts.
E. Measure system resource usage during prompt processing.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C, D
Explanation:
Effective prompt engineering for Microsoft Copilot Studio emphasizes writing clear, specific instructions to reduce ambiguity and iteratively testing and refining prompts based on user interactions and outcomes. Metrics such as session duration, prompt length distribution, or system resource usage are not prompt best practices for improving agent response quality.

Question 45

You need to design a Microsoft Copilot Studio agent for customer support. The agent must securely retrieve product warranty data from a REST API. The solution must minimize development effort. What should you include in the design?

A. Export the agent as a managed solution and customize the agent in Power Apps.
B. Create a custom connector in Copilot Studio and use the connector to call the API.
C. Use a Microsoft Power Automate desktop flow to screen scrape the warranty data.
D. Add the warranty data to the Fallback topic.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
A custom connector is the standard low-code approach to securely connect Microsoft Copilot Studio to a REST API. It supports authentication, reusable API definitions, and minimizes development effort. Exporting to Power Apps is unrelated to API integration, desktop flows are inappropriate for REST APIs and add unnecessary complexity, and storing data in the Fallback topic does not provide dynamic, secure data retrieval.

Question 48

A company has an AI agent that automates the review of customer feedback stored in a cloud database. You plan to generate monthly reports from the agent's output to provide insights into customer sentiment and guide product development and marketing. You need to ensure that the data ingested by the agent is clean and suitable for the intended use. What should you do to prepare the data?

A. Create a workflow in Microsoft Power Automate.
B. Identify and address biased data.
C. Create an agent flow in Microsoft Copilot Studio.
D. Sort the database by customer last name.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
To prepare data for AI-driven sentiment analysis and reporting, ensure the dataset is clean, representative, and suitable for the intended purpose by identifying and addressing bias. The other options automate processes or organize data but do not improve data quality for AI use.
