Actual exam question from Microsoft's PL-200
Question #: 19
Topic #: 3
[All PL-200 Questions]

HOTSPOT -
A company uses Power Apps and Power Automate.
There is an issue with the existing flow in the test environment. Development changes are allowed in the test environment.
You need to troubleshoot the issue with the flow.
Which command should you use? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Suggested Answer:
Box 1: Add existing -
When you include your dataflows in a solution, their definitions become portable, making it easier to move them from one environment to another, saving time required to author the dataflow.
Dataflows added to a solution are known as solution-aware dataflows. You can add multiple dataflows to a single solution.
Add an existing dataflow to a solution
Follow these steps to add a dataflow to a solution.

Add the dataflow -
1. Sign in to Power Apps.
2. Select Solutions from the navigation bar.
3. Screen showing the left navigation bar with the Solutions option highlighted.
4. Select the solution you'll add your dataflow to, and from the context menu select Edit.
5. Screen showing the list of solutions.
6. Select Add Exiting > Automation > Dataflow.
Note: A typical use case is for an independent software vendor (ISV) to develop a solution containing a dataflow, that extracts and transforms data from a data source to Dataverse tables, in a sandbox environment. The ISV would then move that dataflow and destination tables to a test environment to test with their test data source to validate that the solution works well and is ready for production. After testing completes, the ISV would provide the dataflow and tables to clients who will import them into their production environment to operate on client's data. This process is much easier when you add both the dataflows and tables they load data to into solutions, and then move the solutions and their contents between environments.

Box 2: Turn off -
After you create a cloud flow, it's turned on by default.
At times, you might want to turn off a cloud flow to prevent it from running.

I first agreed, and maybe I still agree. Turning off the flow seems a good practice and even is in the help, however its not mandatory. There is a situation that you need to add the flow to another solution before editing because its managed. So going for another best practice that solutions need to be managed when transferred from dev to test. I could also argue for 1. Add Existing 2. Edit the flow I cannot read the mind of the misguided person who created the question and we don't have enough context. I'm inclined to choose the add existing for 1 but....

good point, but it does not litterally enable the change to the flow. it adds the flow (fixed or not) to a (new?) (managed?) solution. it changes the solution. but not the flow.

To troubleshoot the issue with the flow in the test environment, you should use the following commands: Enable changes to the flow: C. Edit: This command allows you to make changes to the existing flow. Enable changes to the object: A. Edit: This command allows you to make changes to the object within the flow.

I'd go with these as well because I have no clue what the question talks about. I wish I could have a talk with the "genius" who wrote the question.

the correct answers are edit for both. Add existing doesn't allow you to edit the flow, turn off will literally turn off the object so it doesn't enable editing.

At work when a need to fix a Flow: 1) Edit, no need to turn off first 2) Edit when in edit (1) you can edit every object in the Ms-Flow (if that is what meant here?)

difficult to understand. Development changes are allowed in the test environment --> oh noo.. means this you should edit the flow on tst? I assume so. enable changes to the flow (make changes, save changes, enable(activate) changes? or just implement changes? --> i must assume: implement ---> only optin 1 or 3 could enable ... what is the object? Flow= object. or is it an object within the flow? or is object=environment? bing ai says: For Action 1, you should select Option 3: Edit. This option allows you to modify the flow in the test environment. For Action 2, you should select Option 2: Publish. This option enables you to publish the changes made to the flow in the test environment.

The edit button does not require turn off somehow you don't need to publish the flow (to test it) but maybe if ever you publish from test to production, you may have to publish this to the solution xml? Action 2: Enable changes to the 'object.' Action 2, gpt suggests: Option 1: Edit This assumes that the term 'object' refers to an entity or component that you want to modify within the context of Power Apps or Power Automate.

first, i want to fix it, then i want to test it. if fixed, apply it to dev too. Turnoff can't be right in both cases

this is worded terribly. given it specify's power apps and automate, when you say flow, i think power automate, as such you would edit and then publish (assuming its in a solution which isnt stated) or just save which isnt an option, which is why i suspect solution. That said the overwhelming amount of comments saying turn off and edit is really making me question the context in which i am viewing this question

My understanding is that the question is looking for the actions required to modify a flow in the Power Apps solution: 1. Turn Off > enable making changes/before making changes to the FLOW. 2. Edit > actually get into the flow and modify the OBJECT within the flow. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/edit-solution-aware-flow

1) i don't need to turn off. just edit button is sufficient. 2) edit flow no longer needed -> edit component?

It's not specified that it's a solution-aware flow, nor that the flow is in a solution but considering the options, I agree with fadouayahia 1-Turn off the flow 2-Edit the flow

Totally confused with the answer given. it says 'There is an issue with the existing flow in the test environment...You need to troubleshoot the issue with the flow.' so why do you need to 'add existing' its already there right?

Can anyone explain since the answers provided dont make sense.? My vote is: 1. Turn Off 2. Edit Flows can still be edited if they are not in a Flow. Flows can only be edited if they are switched off though. It's unclear what 'the object' refers to in the second question.. Is the object a table, the Flow? I haven't encountered this terminology before..

Or a JSON object inside the Flow?

"Flows can only be edited if they are switched off though." Did you mean a flow in a solution? A flow can be edited when they are on in Power Automate.
