Question 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:

Explanation:
Correct Answer:
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)

Question 3
For the sales department at your company, you publish a Power BI report that imports data from a Microsoft
Excel file located in a Microsoft SharePoint folder.
The data model contains several measures.
You need to create a Power BI report from the existing data. The solution must minimize development
effort. Which type of data source should you use?
A.Power BI dataset

B. a SharePoint folder

C. Power BI dataflows

D.an Excel workbook

Explanation:
Correct Answer: A
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. "You need to create a
Power BI report from the existing data." the keywords here is "EXISTING DATA"

Question 4

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.

Question 5

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. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point. Hot Area:
Explanation:
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.

Question 6

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.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Select and Place:
Explanation:
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.

Question 7

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

You need to perform the following analyses:

✑ Orders sold over time that include a measure of the total order value
Orders by attributes of products sold

The solution must minimize update times when interacting with visuals in the report.
What should you do first?

A.From Power Query, merge the Order Line Items query and the Products query.

B. Create a calculated column that adds a list of product categories to the Orders table by using a DAX
function.

C. Calculate the count of orders per product by using a DAX function.

D.From Power Query, merge the Orders query and the Order Line Items query.

Explanation:
Correct Answer: D
A merge queries operation joins two existing tables together based on matching values from one or multiple columns.
Join the Orders and the Order Line Items tables. It's the Header/Detail Schema, and the most optimal way is to flatten
the header into the detail table.

Question 10

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.

Explanation:
Correct Answer: C
Split the Logged column by using "at" as the delimiter. After testing this in PowerBI - only splitting with a delimiter
automatically changes the column type transforms automatically into a date column. By extracting the first 11 (or 10,
if you don't want the " " at the end), the column type does not automatically change. After testing this in PowerBI -

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.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

Explanation:
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:

within five minutes of an update.
How should you configure the data connection?

A.Add a SQL statement.

B. Set the Command timeout in minutes setting.

C. Set Data Connectivity mode to Import.

D.Set Data Connectivity mode to DirectQuery.

Explanation:
Correct Answer: D
Direct query No data is imported or copied into Power BI Desktop. For relational sources, the selected tables and
columns appear in the Fields list. For multi- dimensional sources like SAP Business Warehouse, the dimensions and
measures of the selected cube appear in the Fields list. As you create or interact with a visualization, Power BI
Desktop queries the underlying data source, so you're always viewing current data.

Question 16

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.
Explanation:
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 17

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

Explanation:
Correct Answer: D this can easily be tested by going to Power Query Editor > View > Column Profile > distribution
graph, click the three little dots and select group by text length. This will allow you to view the distribution of text
length within the columnA will affect the size of the model as C. B doesn't give you enough information about the

security (RLS). The company has multiple sales regions.
Each sales region has an HR manager.
You need to ensure that the HR managers can interact with the data from their region only. The HR
managers must be prevented from changing the layout of the reports.
How should you provision access to the reports for the HR managers?

A.Publish the reports in an app and grant the HR managers access permission.

B. Create a new workspace, copy the datasets and reports, and add the HR managers as members of the
workspace.

C. Publish the reports to a different workspace other than the one hosting the datasets.

D.Add the HR managers as members of the existing workspace that hosts the reports and the datasets.

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

Question 29

You have a Microsoft Power BI report. The size of PBIX file is 550 MB. The report is accessed by using an
App workspace in shared capacity of powerbi.com.
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. What
should you recommend?

A.Change any DAX measures to use iterator functions.

B. Enable visual interactions.

C. Replace the default visuals with AppSource visuals.

D.Split the visuals onto multiple pages.

Explanation:
Correct Answer: D
One page with many visuals may also make your report loading slow. Please appropriately reduce the number of
visualizations on one page. Split the visuals onto multiple pages.

 Question 30

HOTSPOT -
You are creating a Microsoft Power BI imported data model to perform basket analysis. The goal of the
analysis is to identify which products are usually bought together in the same transaction across and within
sales territories.
You import a fact table named Sales as shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit tab.)

The related dimension tables are imported into the model.

Sales contains the data shown in the following table.

You are evaluating how to optimize the model.

For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select
No. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point. Hot Area:
Explanation:

Box 2: No
-
Can remove the surrogate key OrderDateKey from the
analysis.
Correct
Answer:
Box 1: Yes
-
Those two columns not need in the
analysis.

Box 3: No
-
Tax charged not relevant for the
analysis.

Question 31

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.

Explanation:
Correct Answer: A
from the Microsoft documentation (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/guidance/rls-guidance): "When a report
user is assigned to multiple roles, RLS filters become additive. It means report users can see table rows that represent
the union of those filters." This means that you would see all data where either Role1 OR Role2 applies, so the answer
is A not D.

contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one
correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution.
After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions
will not appear in the review screen.
You are modeling data by using Microsoft Power BI. Part of the data model is a large Microsoft SQL Server
table named Order that has more than 100 million records.
During the development process, you need to import a sample of the data from the Order table.
Solution: From Power Query Editor, you import the table and then add a filter step to the query.
Does this meet the goal?

A.Yes

B. No

Explanation:
Correct Answer: B
A loads the entire table depending on the type of power bi access the user has. So it sorted out at the source.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

Question 33
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.This would load the entire table in the first step.
Instead: You add a WHERE clause to the SQL statement.

You are modeling data by using Microsoft Power BI. Part of the data model is a large Microsoft SQL Server
table named Order that has more than 100 million records.
During the development process, you need to import a sample of the data from the Order
table. Solution: You write a DAX expression that uses the FILTER function. Does this meet
the goal?

A.Yes

B. No

Explanation:
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.

Question 37

HOTSPOT -
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 Azure SQL database. 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:
✑ The count of classes that occur by period
✑ The count of students in attendance by period by day
✑ The average number of students attending a class each month

Question 38

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

There are four departments in the Departments table.

You need to ensure that users can see the data of their respective department only.
What should you do?

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.

Explanation:
Correct Answer: B
Row-level security (RLS) with Power BI can be used to restrict data access for gi ven users. Filters restrict data access at
the row level, and you can define filters within roles
.
