PL-900 Practice Questions

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.

Box 1: automated

Automated flows start with an event or trigger, such as an email being received. These also support a multitude of actions in the 200+ Flow connectors.

Box 2: business process

The business process flow that creates stages or screens that enforce a certain sequence of steps. It collects data from users for each step in the stage and can kick off automated workflows.

Box 3: scheduled

Scheduled flows run regular reports that are sent out to a team and summarize everything that’s happened in the past week. This includes everything from simple daily scheduling to more complex scheduling like “every 3rd Monday.”

Box 4: instant

An instant flow is triggered when you click a button inside of the Flow mobile app, SharePoint, Dynamics, PowerApps, or Excel that passes context directly into your flow.

Note: There are four different Flow types that you can choose from when starting out. You can create a scheduled flow, automated flow, instant flow, or a business process flow.

Box 1: Yes

Only if you would like to share your connector with all users of Logic Apps, Microsoft Flow, and PowerApps, you can submit your connector for Microsoft certification. Microsoft will review your connector.

Box 2: Yes

Connectors created in Microsoft Flow are available in PowerApps. Likewise, connectors created in PowerApps are available in Microsoft Flow.

Box 3: No

If you would like to share your connector with all users of Logic Apps, Microsoft Flow, and PowerApps, you can submit your connector for Microsoft certification. Microsoft will review your connector.

Box 1: Trigger

A trigger is something that triggers or starts the workflow. It could be a new file uploaded to a document library, a new item created in the list or an email sent to your Inbox – something that will start (kick-off the workflow).

There are two types of triggers:

Automatic trigger is pre-programmed into the workflow based on a certain rule (i.e. new document or item created, email sent, etc.)

Manual Trigger is a trigger initiated by a user. Unlike with automatic trigger above, the workflow will only start when initiated manually by the end user (for example, from the Document Library for a selected file). Manual trigger is only supported for certain types of workflows (i.e. Get feedback from your manager for the selected file)

Box 2: action

An action is something that occurs as a result of the workflow.

Box 3: expression

Sometimes users just need to do basic operations like getting the current time, adding numbers together, or replacing a part of a string of text. That’s possible inline in any flow action. Microsoft Flow leverages the same Workflow Definition Language used by Azure Logic apps. For new users who are unfamiliar with the expression language, there is an inline help experience that shows how to use each expression as they build out their flow.

Box 4: flow type

There are four different Flow types that you can choose from when starting out. You can create a scheduled flow, automated flow, instant flow, or a business process flow.

Triggers like When a record is created, When a record is updated, and When a record is deleted initiate your flow within a few minutes of the event occurring. In rare cases, your flow can take up to 2 hours to trigger.
