Contoso has two divisions named Sales and Research. The Sales division contains two departments named Online Sales and Retail Sales. The Research division assigns internally developed product lines to individual teams of researchers and analysts. Existing Environment Identity Environment Contoso has a Microsoft Entra tenant named contoso.com. The tenant contains two groups named ResearchReviewersGroup1 and ResearchReviewersGroup2. Data Environment Contoso has the following data environment: The Sales division uses a Microsoft Power BI Premium capacity. The semantic model of the Online Sales department includes a fact table named Orders that uses Import made. In the system of origin, the OrderID value represents the sequence in which orders are created. The Research department uses an on-premises, third-party data warehousing product. Fabric is enabled for contoso.com. An Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 storage account named storage1 contains Research division data for a product line named Productline1. The data is in the delta format. A Data Lake Storage Gen2 storage account named storage2 contains Research division data for a product line named Productline2. The data is in the CSV format. Requirements Planned Changes Contoso plans to make the following changes: Enable support for Fabric in the Power BI Premium capacity used by the Sales division. Make all the data for the Sales division and the Research division available in Fabric. For the Research division, create two Fabric workspaces named Productline1ws and Productine2ws. In Productline1ws, create a lakehouse named Lakehouse1. In Lakehouse1, create a shortcut to storage1 named ResearchProduct. Data Analytics Requirements Contoso identifies the following data analytics requirements: All the workspaces for the Sales division and the Research division must support all Fabric experiences. The Research division workspaces must use a dedicated, on-demand capacity that has per-minute billing. The Research division workspaces must be grouped together logically to support OneLake data hub filtering based on the department name. For the Research division workspaces, the members of ResearchReviewersGroup1 must be able to read lakehouse and warehouse data and shortcuts by using SQL endpoints. For the Research division workspaces, the members of ResearchReviewersGroup2 must be able to read lakehouse data by using Lakehouse explorer. All the semantic models and reports for the Research division must use version control that supports branching. Data Preparation Requirements Contoso identifies the following data preparation requirements: The Research division data for Productline1 must be retrieved from Lakehouse1 by using Fabric notebooks. All the Research division data in the lakehouses must be presented as managed tables in Lakehouse explorer. Semantic Model Requirements Contoso identifies the following requirements for implementing and managing semantic models: The number of rows added to the Orders table during refreshes must be minimized. The semantic models in the Research division workspaces must use Direct Lake mode. General Requirements Contoso identifies the following high-level requirements that must be considered for all solutions: Follow the principle of least privilege when applicable. Minimize implementation and maintenance effort when possible. You need to ensure that Contoso can use version control to meet the data analytics requirements and the general requirements. What should you do?

Community Insight

The core concept is enabling version control with branching in Fabric workspaces. The common trap is assuming modern support for GitHub applies to older exam questions or that other storage options like OneDrive provide native version control.

This question addresses Microsoft Fabric's Git integration capabilities, specifically regarding version control for semantic models and reports. The correct answer is C because Azure Repos was the exclusive supported option at the time of the exam's creation.

Many learners select Option B (GitHub) because it is a standard industry tool and is now supported in newer Fabric updates. However, based on the specific constraints of this legacy question, Azure Repos is the only valid choice.

When a Microsoft Fabric question requires version control with branching for workspace items, consider Git integration with Azure Repos or GitHub. Both can support branching; choose based on the specific requirements and constraints in the question.

Azure Repos is typically preferred in Microsoft enterprise environments and aligns better with Fabric's integrated DevOps workflows.

The versioning part of the question narrows the answer to B or C, while the specificity of the workspace: "Research Division", just as referenced in the case scenario makes the answer "C"
goldy29 👍 1 Selected: C
You can use both Git and Azure as Repos for version control but if you read the question properly it clearly says that Research Division Workspace. Hence, C is the correct answer.
rafaelfiss 👍 2 Selected: C
Starting in September 2024, GitHub has also been supported for integration with Microsoft Fabric. At the time this question was created, the correct answer was only option C. Currently, both B and C are correct and support branching.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/cicd/git-integration/intro-to-git-integration?tabs=azure-devops Based on the Microsoft Learn new update dated 09/22/2024, both Git in Azure Repos(with the same tenant as the Fabric tenant) and GitHub is supported now. So the right answer for now are Azure Repos and GitHub.

Now Github is also supported. What would be the correct answer now? Github or Azure Repos?

C is the answer Azure Repos
stilferx 👍 9 Selected: C
IMHO, the Azure Repos is the answer. It is directly mentioned here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/cicd/git-integration/intro-to-git-integration Considerations and limitations Currently, only Git in Azure Repos with the same tenant as the Fabric tenant is supported. If the workspace and Git repo are in two different geographical regions, the tenant admin must enable cross-geo exports. Azure DevOps on-prem isn't supported. Sovereign clouds aren't supported.

Most people are voting C but the "correct answer" is B? Who can make sure the answers provided are correct here?
Nefirs 👍 5
dont trust the revealed "correct answer", always check the discussion. I guess the "correct answer" is from the person who took the exam or whatever and uploaded the question and answer sheets. Of course no one except Microsoft knows the real correct answers to these questions.
VAzureD 👍 5 Selected: C
Option C A. Storing semantic models and reports in Data Lake Gen2 storage might provide a storage solution, but it does not address the requirement for version control. B. While GitHub is a popular version control platform and supports branching, it may not integrate seamlessly with Contoso's Azure-based environment. D. Microsoft OneDrive is primarily a file hosting service and is not well-suited for version control of complex datasets, semantic models, and reports.

Expert Analysis

Why the Answer Is Correct

Option C is the correct answer because, historically, Microsoft Fabric only supported Git integration with Azure Repos within the same tenant. This limitation ensures seamless authentication and management via Microsoft Entra ID. While the requirement asks for version control supporting branching, Azure Repos provides this natively within the Fabric ecosystem as defined in the original exam context.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option A (Data Lake Gen2) and Option D (OneDrive) are storage solutions, not version control systems; they do not provide the branching and commit history required by the analytics requirements. Option B (GitHub) is incorrect in this specific context because, although Microsoft announced general availability of GitHub integration in September 2024, this exam question predates that update or relies on the documentation stating 'Currently, only Git in Azure Repos... is supported.'

Community Comment Notes

Community consensus heavily favors Option C, citing official Microsoft Learn documentation. Users note that while GitHub is now supported, the exam key reflects the earlier restriction. As one commenter noted, 'Currently, only Git in Azure Repos is supported,' highlighting the temporal nature of the constraint. Another user clarified that 'Starting in September 2024, GitHub has also been supported,' explaining why some might be confused if using updated docs.

Official Reference

Exam Strategy

Always check the date of the exam question or the specific version of documentation referenced. If the question implies a strict 'only' or uses older phrasing, stick to the historically exclusive feature (Azure Repos) rather than the newly added one (GitHub).

Frequently Asked Questions

Is GitHub still not supported in Fabric?

No, GitHub is now supported as of September 2024. However, this specific exam question relies on older documentation where only Azure Repos was available.

Why can't I use OneDrive for version control?

OneDrive is a file hosting service. It does not provide the structured Git-based version control, branching, and CI/CD pipeline integration required by Fabric workspaces.
