Question 31

You are implementing a scheduled refresh in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Insights. You need to describe scheduled refreshes to your colleague. Which two statements should you make? Each correct answer presents a complete solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  1. When you configure a refresh schedule to run daily, you must define the time zone and time when the refresh needs to run.
  2. Scheduled refresh is not available in trial environments and can only be configured for production instances.
  3. The refresh schedule can be applied to selected data sources or specific entities within these data sources.
  4. To exclude a segment from a scheduled refresh, you must deactivate it before the scheduled refresh run.

Question 32

An organization is using Microsoft Power Query when connecting to data sources in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Insights. You need to load eCommerce Contacts to Dynamics 365 Customer Insights using Power Query. Which is an appropriate action to take when using Power Query to ingest data?

  1. You can only add additional columns to the dataset in Power Query before the data source is created in Dynamics 365 Customer Insights.
  2. You must create a separate Power Query data source for each entity you wish to ingest.
  3. After you save a Power Query data source, you have to manually trigger the initial refresh process.
  4. You must select Power Query as an import method when creating the data source.

Question 33

Historic legacy interactions are ingested using a CSV file as part of the data sources in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Insights. The date when the interaction took place has the column name Interaction Date. After the data is ingested and configured in Dynamics 365 Customer Insights, users are not able to select the logical date operator such as on or after when using the Interaction Date attribute in a segment rule. You need to ensure users can use the correct date operators for the Interaction Date in the segment rules. What should you do?

  1. Ensure that the Interaction date attribute has the calendar.date semantic type.
  2. Ensure that the data type of the column is set appropriately in Microsoft Power Query when setting up the data source.
  3. Ensure that the data type of the attribute is set appropriately in the imported Dynamics 365 Customer Insights entity.
  4. Ensure that the date format in the CSV file matches the format set in the System > General settings of Dynamics 365 Customer Insights.

Question 34

You need to unify the different data sources within Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Insights through the data unification process. After you selected Run on the Merge page, you notice that you still need to rename a merged field. What is the fastest way to perform the correction?

  1. While the merge is running, separate and recombine the merged field. Rename it and run the merge process again.
  2. Wait for the process to finish. Refresh the page, then rename the field and run the merge process again.
  3. View the details of the running job and cancel the job from the side pane. Rename the field and run the merge process again.
  4. Rename the field while the merge is in Refreshing status. Changes are still recorded during the current process.

Question 35

A company has Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Insights set up as the Customer Data Platform. The eCommerce application sends updates on customer purchases to Dynamics 365 Customer Insights through its real-time APIs. You configured eCommerce purchases to show on the customer activity timeline. A marketing user reports that eCommerce purchases for customers seem to be disappearing from the customer activity timelines over time. The marketing user also notices that segments based on eCommerce purchases are not updating. You need to explain why this is happening. Which two explanations should you provide? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  1. Real-time ingested activities will not update segments on the new activity directly.
  2. Real-time ingested activity updates disappear after four hours by default.
  3. Real-time ingested activity updates disappear after 30 days by default.
  4. An additional API call is required to update a segment with real-time activity data.
