You have a collection of reports for the HR department of your company. The datasets use row-level security (RLS). The company has multiple sales regions that each 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?

Correct Answer:C
Note: Row-level security (RLS) with Power BI can be used to restrict data access for given users. Filters restrict data access at the row level, and you can define filters within roles. In the Power BI service, members of a workspace have access to datasets in the workspace. RLS doesn't restrict this data access.

You have a collection of reports for the HR department of your company.
You need to create a visualization for the HR department that shows a historic employee counts and predicts trends during the next six months.
Which type of visualization should you use?

Correct Answer:C
The best data for forecasting is time series data or uniformly increasing whole numbers. The line chart has to have only one line.
Try forecasting: Try the new forecasting capabilities of Power View today on your own data or with the sample report available as part of the Power BI report samples. To view your own data, upload a workbook with a Power View time series line chart to Power BI for Office 365.

You have a query named Customer that imports CSV files from a data lake. The query contains 500 rows as shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit tab.)

Each file contains deltas of any new or modified rows from each load to the data lake. Multiple files can have the same customer ID.
You need to keep only the last modified row for each customer ID.
Which three actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.

Solution:
1) Duplicate Customer query
2) Group by CustId by Max ModifiedDate (only 2 columns to keep)
3) Merge two queries on CustId and ModifiedDate inner join (to retreive other customer informations related to latest Date)

Does this meet the goal?

Correct Answer:A

You have a folder of monthly transaction extracts.
You plan to create a report to analyze the transaction data.
You receive the following email message: "Hi. I've put 24 files of monthly transaction data onto the shared drive. File Transactions201901.csv through Transactions201912.csv have the latest set of columns, but files Transactions201801.csv to Transactions201812.csv have an older layout without the extra fields needed for analysis. Each file contains 10 to 50 transactions."
You get data from the folder and select Combine & Load. The Combine Files dialog box is shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit tab.)

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

Solution:
Graphical user interface, text, application Description automatically generated
Box 1: Yes
The four columns used in the 2018 transactions are already displayed.
Box 2: Yes
The columns used are based on the entire dataset. The additional columns in the 2019 files will be detected. Box 3: Yes
Note: Under the hoods, Power BI will automatically detect which delimiter to use, and may even promote the first row as headers. You can manually change the delimiter, or define how Power BI should handle data types. You can set it to automatically detect data types based on first 200 rows, or the entire dataset or you can even opt out the detection of data types.

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?

Correct Answer:C
DirectQuery: No data is imported or copied into Power BI Desktop.
Import: The selected tables and columns are imported into Power BI Desktop. As you create or interact with a visualization, Power BI Desktop uses the imported data.
Benefits of using DirectQuery
There are a few benefits to using DirectQuery:
DirectQuery lets you build visualizations over very large datasets, where it would otherwise be unfeasible to first import all the data with pre-aggregation.
Underlying data changes can require a refresh of data. For some reports, the need to display current data can require large data transfers, making reimporting data unfeasible. By contrast, DirectQuery reports always use current data.
The 1-GB dataset limitation doesn't apply to DirectQuery. Reference:
