You need to ensure that users can apply retention labels to individual documents in their Microsoft SharePoint libraries.
Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
- A . From Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps, create a file policy.
- B . From the SharePoint admin center, modify the Site Settings.
- C . From the SharePoint ad min center, modify the records management settings.
- D . From the Microsoft Purview portal, publish a label.
- E . From the Microsoft Purview portal, create a label.
D, E
Explanation:
To allow users to apply retention labels to individual documents in Microsoft SharePoint libraries, you need to create a retention label and publish the label.
In Microsoft Purview, retention labels define how long content should be retained or deleted. You must first create a label that specifies the retention rules. After creating the label, you must publish it so that it becomes available for users in SharePoint document libraries. Once published, users can manually apply the retention label to individual documents.
You have a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription.
You need to prevent users from uploading data loss prevention (DLP)-protected documents to the following third-party websites:
● web1.contoso.com
● web2.contoso.com
The solution must minimize administrative effort.
To what should you set the Service domains setting for Endpoint DLP?
- A . *.contoso.com
- B . contoso.com
- C . web1.contoso.com and web2.contoso.com
- D . web*.contoso.com
C
Explanation:
The Service domains setting in Microsoft 365 Endpoint Data Loss Prevention (Endpoint DLP) allows administrators to block or allow specific domains for file uploads. The goal is to prevent users from uploading DLP-protected documents to web1.contoso.com and web2.contoso.com.
Setting the Service domains to "web1.contoso.com and web2.contoso.com" precisely targets the two specific third-party websites, minimizing administrative effort while ensuring strict control.
You have a Microsoft 365 E5 tenant.
You need to add a new keyword dictionary.
What should you create?
- A . a trainable classifier
- B . a retention policy
- C . a sensitivity label
- D . a sensitive info type
D
Explanation:
To add a new keyword dictionary in Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP), you must create a Sensitive Information Type (SIT).
Sensitive Info Types (SITs) allow you to define custom detection rules, including keyword dictionaries, regular expressions, and functions for identifying sensitive content in emails, documents, and other Microsoft 365 locations. A keyword dictionary is a list of predefined words/phrases that Microsoft Purview can use to identify and classify content for DLP policies.
Steps to add a keyword dictionary:
You have a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription that uses Microsoft Purview.
You are creating an exact data match (EDM) classifier named EDM1.
For EDM1, you upload a schema file that contains the fields shown in the following table.
What is the maximum number of primary elements that EDM1 can have?
- A . 1
- B . 2
- C . 3
- D . 4
B
Explanation:
In Microsoft Purview Exact Data Match (EDM) classifiers, a primary element is a unique, identifying field used for data matching. EDM allows up to two primary elements per schema.
From the provided table, the Match mode indicates how data is analyzed:
● PP (EU Passport Number) → Likely a primary element because it’s unique.
● Name (All Full Names) → Typically not a primary element as names are common.
● DateOfBirth (Single-token) → Usually a secondary element, not unique.
● AccountNumber (Multi-token) → Can be a primary element, as it’s a unique identifier.
● Since EDM supports a maximum of two primary elements, the correct answer is 2.
DRAG DROP
You have a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription that uses Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps.

Which filter should you use for each condition? To answer, drag the appropriate filters to the correct conditions. Each filter may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
