Answer is B. To see the details, it is easier to query this data using the Web API in your browser using the following query with the plugintracelog EntityType, using the typename property to filter results in the messageblock property based on the name of the plug-in class: GET <your org uri>/api/data/v9.0/plugintracelogs?$select=messageblock&$filter=typename eq 'BasicPlugin.FollowUpPlugin'

Selected Answer: C

It can't be B. Because here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/data-platform/debug-plug-in It says: "Before you will be able to use this service, you must enable tracing in your Microsoft Dataverse environment." And in the question and in B answer there is no any word about enable tracing.

Question says it's a confidential data. If you get logs by using GET, those data will be exposed? So C seemed more proper way to me.

Answer is C Installing Plug-in profiler in the production environment by using the Plug-in Registration tool is another viable option. It allows you to collect detailed profiling information about the plug-in’s execution1.

B is correct. By sending a GET request to retrieve the "plugintracelogs" records, you can access the detailed tracing information and error logs generated by the plug-in in the production environment. This information will help you diagnose and troubleshoot the issues reported by users. Option C (Installing Plug-in profiler in the production environment) is typically used for profiling and debugging during development, and it may not be suitable for diagnosing production issues.

Selected Answer: B

It could even be D if you get errors and debug in the right way buy, by profiling in production you can make a mess, slow the system and block triggers for users that are not facing those errors... It's really looks like Microsoft want us to go for B here
