NEW QUESTION 18
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?
- A. Add the HR managers as members of the existing workspace that hosts the reports and the datasets.
- B. Publish the reports in an app and grant the HR managers access permission.
- C. Create a new workspace, copy the datasets and reports, and add the HR managers as members of the workspace.
- D. Publish the reports to a different workspace other than the one hosting the datasets.
Answer: D
Explanation:
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.

Start with CALCULATE and use a SUMX.
CALCULATE evaluates an expression in a modified filter context.
Box 2: SUMX
SUMX returns the sum of an expression evaluated for each row in a table.
The following sample creates a measure with the sales of the top 10 sold products.
= SUMX(TOPN(10, SUMMARIZE(Product, [ProductKey], "TotalSales", SUMX(RELATED(InternetSales_USD[SalesAmount_USD]), InternetSales_USD[SalesAmount_USD]) + SUMX(RELATED(ResellerSales_USD[SalesAmount_USD]), ResellerSales_USD[SalesAmount_USD])) Box 3: TOPN TOPN returns the top N rows of the specified table.

NEW QUESTION 23
You are developing a report page. Some users will navigate the report by using a keyboard, and some users will consume the report by using a screen reader. You need to ensure that the users can consume the content on a report page in a logical order. What should you configure in Microsoft Power Bl Desktop?
- A. the tab order
- B. the X position
- C. the layer order
- D. the bookmark order
Answer: A
Explanation:
If you find yourself unable to navigate to an object or visual while using a keyboard, it may be because the report author has decided to hide that object from the tab order. Report authors commonly hide decorative objects from the tab order. If you find that you cannot tab through a report in a logical manner, you should contact the report author. Report authors can set the tab order for objects and visuals.

NEW QUESTION 24
You publish a Microsoft Power BI dataset to powerbi.com. The dataset appends data from an on-premises Oracle database and an Azure SQL database by using one query.
You have admin access to the workspace and permission to use an existing On-premises data gateway for which the Oracle data source is already configured.
You need to ensure that the data is updated every morning. The solution must minimize configuration effort.
Which two actions should you perform when you configure scheduled refresh? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
- A. Configure the dataset to use the existing On-premises data gateway.
- B. Deploy an On-premises data gateway in personal mode.
- C. Set the refresh frequency to Daily.
- D. Configure the dataset to use the personal gateway.
Answer: B,C
Explanation:
B: The on-premises data gateway acts as a bridge to provide quick and secure data transfer between on-premises data (data that isn't in the cloud) and several Microsoft cloud services. These cloud services include Power BI.
On-premises data gateway (personal mode) allows one user to connect to sources, and can't be shared with others. An on-premises data gateway (personal mode) can be used only with Power BI. This gateway is well-suited to scenarios where you're the only person who creates reports, and you don't need to share any data sources with others.
C: For Power BI users, refreshing data typically means importing data from the original data sources into a dataset, either based on a refresh schedule or on-demand. You can perform multiple dataset refreshes daily, which might be necessary if the underlying source data changes frequently.

You need to create a visualization that compares revenue and cost over time.
Which type of visualization should you use?
- A. donut chart
- B. waterfall chart
- C. line chart
- D. stacked area chart
Answer: C
Explanation:
A line chart or line graph displays the evolution of one or several numeric variables. Data points are connected by straight line segments. A line chart is often used to visualize a trend in data over intervals of time - a time series - thus the line is often drawn chronologically.
Example:
Incorrect Answers:
A: Stacked area charts are not appropriate to study the evolution of each individual group: it is very hard to substract the height of other groups at each time point.
Note: A stacked area chart is the extension of a basic area chart. It displays the evolution of the value of several groups on the same graphic. The values of each group are displayed on top of each other, what allows to check on the same figure the evolution of both the total of a numeric variable, and the importance of each group.
