Exam AZ-400 topic 7 question 79 discussion

Verified - its correct

This is D for sure

The procurement of licenses typically involves purchasing additional licenses from Azure DevOps or Microsoft, and this process usually requires manual intervention. However, once licenses are procured, tasks such as adding users, modifying group memberships, and assigning entitlements can be automated through scripting or through Azure DevOps administrative interfaces, such as Azure Active Directory integration or REST APIs. So, the correct answer is D. Procuring licenses.

Agree with D

D - procurring licences is an only manual process. You cannot automatize this (at least at this point)

D is the correct answer. There is a similar question in the beginning.

i select d

This is nearly the same question as #3 (https://www.examtopics.com/exams/microsoft/az-400/view/1/), there "License procurement" is the correct answer

D is correct answer - IMO. All other tasks can be setup using dynamics membership. "Procuring" means purchasing i.e. submitting purchase orders for additional licenses. Unless you have a very "smart" ERP platform linked to AAD/ADO then someone would need to manually "procure" these to your DevOps Org agreement.

Correct answer is A Group rules provide a great way to automate access level assignment for your organization. This way, you don't have to manually assign access each time a user gets added or removed Show the link below : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/organizations/billing/buy-basic-access-add-users?view=azure-devops&viewFallbackFrom=azure-devop

IMHO the correct answer is A. 1. Many of you points to the difference between assigning and procuring licenses. But actually there no difference. "We simplified Azure DevOps billing, so now rather than complete a purchase process, you assign and remove users. You get billed according to those assignments. This article helps you take advantage of the tools we have for managing paid access for users. This way you only pay for what you need." https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/organizations/billing/buy-basic-access-add-users?view=azure-devops 2. You can easily automate user adding to Azure Devops Teams by assigning AAD groups to the DevOps Teams. 3. The same could be with entitlements 4. You could automate azure devops users group memberships using group rules. Yes, you can do it but only the first time you ASSIGN the membership to the users. If after some days you want to change this membership how do you think to di it automatically? Of course you can't, because now you can't know which group you want to assign a particular user to in several days. This operation, "modifying group memberships" is to be done manually.

licenses can be automated by applying it to all members of a group in AD or all AD users in a tenant.

D is the right answer

Group rules are also used to add users to team projects and other specific groups, like Contributors, Readers, and Administrators. When users leave the group, the licenses get freed and returned to your pool. You don't need to automate license management . Clearly mentioned that adding users are automated. Once license management is automated and not procurement. So answer is 'D'

The answer, from my perspective, should be 'Adding user'. More specifically, Adding Azure AD User (either to AD if synced, or AAD user). Group Membership can be automated by using Dynamic Group and Rule. And License and payment can be automated if we link the Azure DevOps to Azure Subscription. If we link Azure DevOps to Subscription, License payment for Basic user can automatically charge to Azure Subscription dynamically. Out of all the option, only manual process as part of people on-boarding process should be 'Adding User'. You may say that your People On-boarding is automated but I almost certain that you will require someone providing User's detail and/or at least an approval process before the user is created in AD or AAD. Therefore only manual process that I can see is 'Adding User'.

The question is asking what must you do manually .... it's D that you have to purchase the license depending on requirements.

The question has two main points: 1. You need to automate the management of users and licenses whenever possible. 2. Which task must you perform manually? If you choose answer D you don t automate the flow but every time you need to do the task manually. If you choose the answer A you automate the flow and to do that you need to perform the task manually one time. A is the correct answer
