Microsoft DP-600 Exam - Topic 1 Question 42 Discussion

Actual exam question for Microsoft's DP-600 exam

Question #: 42
Topic #: 1

You need to provide Power Bl developers with access to the pipeline. The solution must meet the following requirements:

* Ensure that the developers can deploy items to the workspaces for Development and Test.

* Prevent the developers from deploying items to the workspace for Production.

* Follow the principle of least privilege.

Which three levels of access should you assign to the developers? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct answer is worth one point.

ABuild permission to the production semantic models

BAdmin access to the deployment pipeline

CViewer access to the Development and Test workspaces

DViewer access to the Production workspace

EContributor access to the Development and Test workspaces

FContributor access to the Production workspace

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B, D, E

To meet the requirements, developers should have Admin access to the deployment pipeline (B), Contributor access to the Development and Test workspaces (E), and Viewer access to the Production workspace (D). This setup ensures they can perform necessary actions in development and test environments without having the ability to affect production. Reference = The Power BI documentation on workspace access levels and deployment pipelines provides guidelines on assigning appropriate permissions.

Exactly! Just stick to Contributor for Dev/Test and Viewer for Prod.

What about Build permission? We don’t need that for Production.

But not for Production, right? Viewer access there is safer.

Build permission for production models? No way, that’s too much access!

Viewer access to Production makes sense, but I’m surprised it’s even an option.

Wait, why would they need Admin access to the pipeline? Seems risky.

C, E. Haha, the devs are like kids in a candy store. Gotta keep 'em out of the production workspace!

C, E. Ah, the classic "keep the devs away from production" scenario. Good call.

C, E. Definitely the right answer. Developers need to be able to deploy to the non-production environments, but should not have access to the production workspace.

I’m a bit confused about the permissions for the Development and Test workspaces. Should we go with Contributor for both?

I practiced a similar question where we had to limit access. I feel like Viewer access to Production is a safe choice.

I think we need to give Contributor access to the Development and Test workspaces, but I'm not sure about the Production workspace.

I think I've got it - E and C will give the developers the access they need while following the principle of least privilege. Time to lock in my answer.

The key here is to prevent the developers from deploying to Production, so I'm leaning towards E and D as the best solution.

I'm a bit confused on the difference between Viewer and Contributor access. I'll need to double-check the permissions for each to make sure I get this right.

C, E. Developers should have viewer access to the Development and Test workspaces, and contributor access to the Development and Test workspaces. This follows the principle of least privilege.
