Sample DP-700 Exam Questions & Explanations

Practice with real question formats, multiple choice options, and detailed answer explanations for Microsoft DP-700.

Question #1 Verified Q&A
You need to ensure that the data analysts can access the gold layer lakehouse.<br />
<br />
What should you do?
A Share the lakehouse with the DataAnalysts group and grant the Build reports on the default semantic model permission.
B Share the lakehouse with the DataAnalysts group and grant the Read all Apache Spark permission.
C Share the lakehouse with the DataAnalysts group and grant the Read all SQL Endpoint data permission.
D Add the DataAnalyst group to the Viewer role for WorkspaceA.
Correct Answer: Share the lakehouse with the DataAnalysts group and grant the Read all SQL Endpoint data permission.
Explanation:
Explanation: Data Analysts' Access Requirements must only have read access to the Delta tables in the gold layer and not have access to the bronze and silver layers. The gold layer data is typically queried via SQL Endpoints. Granting the Read all SQL Endpoint data permission allows data analysts to query the data using familiar SQL-based tools while restricting access to the underlying files.
Question #2 Verified Q&A
HOTSPOT You need to recommend a method to populate the POS1 data to the lakehouse medallion layers. What should you recommend for each layer? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer<br />
<br />
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.<br />

A screenshot of a computer Description automatically generated Bronze Layer: A pipeline Copy activity The bronze layer is used to store raw, unprocessed data. The requirements specify that no transformations should be applied before landing the data in this layer. Using a pipeline Copy activity ensures minimal development effort, built-in connectors, and the ability to ingest the data directly into the Delta format in the bronze layer. Silver Layer: A notebook The silver layer involves extensive data cleansing (deduplication, handling missing values, and standardizing capitalization). A notebook provides the flexibility to implement complex transformations and is well-suited for this task.
Question #3 Verified Q&A
You need to ensure that usage of the data in the Amazon S3 bucket meets the technical requirements.<br />
<br />
What should you do?
A Create a shortcut and ensure that caching is enabled for the workspace.
B Create a shortcut and ensure that caching is disabled for the workspace.
C Create a workspace identity and use the identity in a data pipeline.
D Create a workspace identity and enable high concurrency for the notebooks.
Correct Answer: Create a shortcut and ensure that caching is disabled for the workspace.
Explanation:
To ensure that the usage of the data in the Amazon S3 bucket meets the technical requirements, we must address two key points: Minimize egress costs associated with cross-cloud data access: Using a shortcut ensures that Fabric does not replicate the data from the S3 bucket into the lakehouse but rather provides direct access to the data in its original location. This minimizes cross-cloud data transfer and avoids additional egress costs. Prevent saving a copy of the raw data in the lakehouses: Disabling caching ensures that the raw data is not copied or persisted in the Fabric workspace. The data is accessed on-demand directly from the Amazon S3 bucket.
Question #4 Verified Q&A
HOTSPOT You need to create the product dimension.<br />
<br />
How should you complete the Apache Spark SQL code? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.<br />
<br />
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

<br />
Join between Products and ProductSubCategories: Use an INNER JOIN. Use an INNER JOIN. The goal is to include only products that are assigned to a subcategory. An INNER JOIN ensures that only matching records (i.e., products with a valid subcategory) are included.<br />
<br />
Join between ProductSubCategories and ProductCategories: Similar to the above logic, we want to include only subcategories assigned to a valid product category. An INNER JOIN ensures this condition is met.<br />
WHERE Clause<br />
Condition: IsActive = 1 Only active products (where IsActive equals 1) should be included in the gold layer. This filters out inactive products.
Question #5 Verified Q&A
You need to populate the MAR1 data in the bronze layer.<br />
<br />
Which two types of activities should you include in the pipeline? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.<br />
<br />
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
A Stored procedure
B Copy data
C WebHook
D ForEach
Correct Answer: Copy data, ForEach
Explanation:
MAR1 has seven entities, each accessible via a different API endpoint. A ForEach activity is required to iterate over these endpoints to fetch data from each one. It enables dynamic execution of API calls<br />
for each entity.<br />
The Copy data activity is the primary mechanism to extract data from REST APIs and load it into the bronze layer in Delta format. It supports native connectors for REST APIs and Delta, minimizing development effort.
