Exam MS-102 topic 1 question 67 discussion

Answer is wrong. To have new features & updates on all users or some/targeted users you need to configure "release preference" for the entire organization/tenant. Only the Global Admins can change this. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/manage/release-options-in-office-365?view=o365-worldwide#set-up-the-release-option-in-the-admin-center

release preferences user1

Answer: Release preferences User1 only "..You have to be a global admin in Microsoft 365 to opt in. .." https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/manage/release-options-in-office-365?view=o365-worldwide User1 is the Global Admin To opt in: M365 admin center>Settings>Org settings>Organization profile>Release preferences>fly-out with choices below: Standard release for everyone Targeted release for everyone Targeted release for select users Select one, and click Save (then click Select users button if so desired).

Given answer is wrong: ChatGPT o3: Answer: User: User1 only Explanation: Why “Release preferences” is correct: This setting controls who gets early access to new Microsoft 365 features and service updates. It's found under Settings > Org settings > Organization profile. Why the other settings are wrong: Office installation options – Controls how Office apps are installed/updated, not feature rollout. Privileged access – Related to Privileged Access Management (PAM), not release schedules. User roles: User1 (Global Administrator): ✅ Can change Release preferences. User2 (Service Support Administrator): ❌ Limited to support tickets and service health—can’t modify org settings. User3 (Cloud Application Administrator): ❌ Manages apps, not tenant-wide settings. Principle of least privilege: Only User1 has the necessary rights—no need to include others.

Consulted with AI Correct selections: Microsoft 365 setting: Release preferences User: User1 and User3 only Explanation: Release preferences control when users receive new Microsoft 365 features (Targeted release). Only users with the Global Administrator or Cloud Application Administrator roles can configure these settings. From the table: User1 – Global Administrator ✅ User3 – Cloud Application Administrator ✅ User2 – Service Support Administrator ❌ (cannot configure release preferences) User4 – No role ❌

User Administrator https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/role-based-access-control/permissions-reference#user-administrator Cloud Application Administrator https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/role-based-access-control/permissions-reference#cloud-application-administrator

I think the answer is right: Requirement 1: only give the user the insider channel (Current) Requirement 2: Principle of least privlidge To do this you would need to visit cloud policy config and be atleast a Cloud apps admin

To provide early access to Microsoft 365 features and service updates, you need to modify the "Release preferences" setting. User2, with the role of "Service Administrator", has the necessary privileges to manage service settings and configurations. This aligns with the principle of least privilege, as they have the required permissions without being a Global Administrator.
