Selected Answer: ADE
A. Collect D. Set E. UpdateContext These functions allow you to work with variables within the scope of a screen. Here's a brief explanation of each: A. Collect: This function is used to add records to a collection variable. While it primarily deals with collections, you can use it to create and update variables by storing values in a collection. D. Set: The Set function is used to create and update variables. You can set the value of a variable using this function. E. UpdateContext: This function is used to create and update context variables, which are often used for temporary storage of values within a screen's context. B. Patch: The Patch function is primarily used to modify or create records in a data source (e.g., SharePoint list or SQL database). It's not typically used for managing variables within a screen's scope. C. Navigate: The Navigate function is used for screen navigation and doesn't directly create or update variables.

All variables are created implicitly when they appear in a Set, UpdateContext, Navigate, Collect, or ClearCollect function. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/power-fx/variables#create-and-remove-variables But question need to select 3, so CDE

Yes that is true, that is why we have to ask extra questions to chat GPT. Sometimes I also ask for sources. When it really is making it difficult then i search the answers manually. I am glad we have Examtopics otherwise it would be so hard to get these certifications.
