How does one configure / specify blocked file types from solution system settings?... System settings are not even solution aware... My vote would be environment variable for both, simply because the question specifies "You need to ensure that the business process works the same anywhere the SOLUTION is deployed." Changes to system settings are not deployed to other environments. Environment variables are solution aware. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/data-platform/environmentvariables

Your answer seems right, from ChatGpt: - Blocked file types: Use an environment variable. This allows you to store information that varies between deployments, such as the types of files that are blocked. - URL to a web service: Use an environment variable. This ensures that the URL to the web service is consistent across all environments where the solution is deployed. Environment variables are solution-aware, which means they are included when the solution is exported and imported into a different environment. This ensures that the business process works the same way anywhere the solution is deployed.

Can environment variable block file types?

Good point. It can't, I was thinking in terms of using a Flow and validating file types. But this is probably not what MS is asking..

I thought of this as solution system settings : Power Platform Admin Center -> Environments -> Specific Environment -> Settings -> Pricacy + Security -> Blocked Attachments -> Block these file extensions.

just tested it from: Power Platform Admin Center -> Environments -> Specific Environment -> Settings -> Pricacy + Security -> Blocked Attachments -> Block these file extensions. it worked, and i double and trible checked if their remained with different settings. worked! thought i had to search for Privacy, security not found in the menue. then i opened every environment -> advanced settings - > solutions, publish All Customisations. back again to PPAdmin Center, checked every envrioment, the blocked settins still differen (i thought, maybe the publish would overwrite it). but would deployment do? dev->test->prod?

Both answers are correct although it shouldn't say solution system settings as that prob confusing people. My reasonings Environment variable: Sense its web link (this link would be the same you can use the environment variable to reference in all environments i.e dev - test - prod) Environment setting - You can block types of files you do not want to accept

the answer "solution system settings" should be only "system settings" considering this, answers are correct

the answers are not correct because it doesn't only say "system settings". it says "solution system settings". those little details are important. furthermore, even if it said "system settings", should we interpret that as "environment settings"? if so, then it would still be the wrong answer because the question says it needs to "work the same way anywhere the solution is deployed" which means the file type restrictions need to be contained within the solution, not the environment.

The given answers are correct, through the old export there is an extra step to export system settings. I never used it but I think you need to select the 'general' checkbox. I have no been able to find this feature in the make portal

Should be: Blocked file types - Environment Variable; You can specify blocked file types in power platform admin centre by selecting your environment and going to the settings. URL to a Web Service - Environment Variable

Why No connection reference for the URL of the webservice? I think a connection reference suits better for API's and other connection strings

As Nyanne is writing below, blocked file types are not controlled in any solution system settings, but from the environment settings, located in powerplatform admin center. So the answer for the first question is for sure Environment Variable.
