[All PL-400 Questions]

You need to connect to the background check API.
Which mechanism should you use?

  • A. JavaScript
  • B. Flow with a custom connector
  • C. Azure Function
  • D. Plug-in
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
While Azure Logic Apps, Microsoft Power Automate, and Microsoft Power Apps offer over 325+ connectors to connect to Microsoft and verified services, you may want to communicate with services that aren't available as prebuilt connectors. Custom connectors address this scenario by allowing you to create (and even share) a connector with its own triggers and actions.
Note:
Each of the third-party services charge per result. Northwind wants to perform the background check processes only when necessary to minimize costs.

Very confusing question... I would suppose you would first create a soap based API Connector from within an Azure function, and then use a custom connector within a flow to pull data. Honestly a 50/50 B/C

On second thought, there is a difference between a connection and a connector. You would create the connection to a SOAP based API in an Azure Function, and then use a custom connector within a PA flow to pull data. As such my answer is C

you cant create custom connector for SOAP API, you can only create some workarounds for PA to consume SOAP API, so I really doubt that B is correct.

Flow seems correct - first reply in the thread: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Power-Automate/HTTP-Action-in-Power-Automate-to-Call-SOAP-Webservices/td-p/549948

background check service uses WSDL secured by client authentication certificate. Does custom connector have the option to apply a client cert for authentication?

Background Check is SOAP-based API, Can you a Logic App with a custom connector but the Option says Flow with a custom connector which is not valid.

I will go with Azure function Since it says The solution must connect to the service and update the background check stage for candidates at least once per hour for incomplete background checks.
