Question #13 Topic 1

HOTSPOT -

You have two CSV files named Products and Categories.

The Products file contains the following columns:

✑ ProductID
✑ ProductName
✑ SupplierID
✑ CategoryID
The Categories file contains the following columns:

✑ CategoryID

area.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Hot Area:

Correct Answer:

Box 1: Merge -

There are two primary ways of combining queries: merging and appending.

* When you have one or more columns that you'd like to add to another query, you merge the queries.

* When you have additional rows of data that you'd like to add to an existing query, you append the query.
Box 2: Disable the query load -

Managing loading of queries -

In many situations, it makes sense to break down your data transformations in multiple queries. One popular example is merging where you

merge two queries into one to essentially do a join. In this type of situations, some queries are not relevant to load into Desktop as they are

intermediate steps, while they are still required for your data transformations to work correctly. For these queries, you can make sure they are

not loaded in Desktop by un-checking 'Enable load' in the context menu of the query in Desktop or in the Properties screen:

Question #14 Topic 1

You have an Azure SQL database that contains sales transactions. The database is updated frequently.

You need to generate reports from the data to detect fraudulent transactions. The data must be visible within five minutes of an update.

How should you configure the data connection?

A. Add a SQL statement.

B. Set the Command timeout in minutes setting.

C. Set Data Connectivity mode to Import.

D. Set Data Connectivity mode to DirectQuery. Most Voted

Correct Answer: D

DirectQuery: No data is imported or copied into Power BI Desktop. For relational sources, the selected tables and columns appear in the Fields

list. For multi- dimensional sources like SAP Business Warehouse, the dimensions and measures of the selected cube appear in the Fields list.

As you create or interact with a visualization, Power BI Desktop queries the underlying data source, so you're always viewing current data.
