You can also choose to download the filtered data, up to 250,000 records, by selecting the Download button. You can download the logs in either CSV or JSON format So this question, can be one of those that you will got Corect if you choose any of both csv or JSON, You can use the JSON transform feature in the Power Query Editor in Excel to split each property in the JSON object in the AuditData column into multiple columns so that each property has its own column. So my vote goes to C, JSON https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/compliance/export-view-audit-log-records?view=o365-worldwide

C - Answer is correct - Audit Logs show the fact policies were changed (tested in tenant), Sign-ins only show access was granted/denied

Agree - I confirmed in my tenant too. BUT - why json over csv? Both appear to provide the same information.

it's "D" and not "C" because in Sign-ins you can see the conditional access usage .

But the question says: "The log file must contain changes to conditional access policies" That information is only in the audit logs.
