Suggested Answer: H 🗳️
Advanced Viewing of Target Data from Extended Events in SQL Server
When your event session is currently active, you might want to watch the event data in real time, as it is received by the target.
Management > Extended Events > Sessions > [your-session] > Watch Live Data.
The query_post_execution_showplan extended event enables you to see the actual query plan in the SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) UI. When the
Details pane is visible, you can see a graph of the query plan on the Query Plan tab. By hovering over a node on the query plan, you cansee a list of property names and their values for the node.

H. Create an Extended Event. The difference is that in question 50 you were asked about general performance metrics. Here you need to look at multiple servers and check actual Query Plan and make sure that is works quite similar on every server.
