DP-600 Deployment Pipelines and CI/CD 3

Question 1

Which Microsoft Fabric REST API operation is used to programmatically trigger a deployment between pipeline stages?

Accepted Answer

POST /v1/pipelines/{pipelineId}/deploy

Answer

The Fabric REST API exposes a deploy operation on the pipeline resource that accepts the pipeline ID and target stage configuration to trigger programmatic deployments.

Question 2

What is the recommended approach for handling different data source connections across Development, Test, and Production stages in Fabric deployment pipelines?

Accepted Answer

Configure deployment rules to automatically override data source parameters per stage

Answer

Deployment rules allow stage-specific parameter overrides so each stage automatically uses the correct connection string without manual intervention after each deployment.

Question 3

What does the selective deployment feature in Fabric deployment pipelines allow you to do?

Accepted Answer

Deploy only specific items from a stage rather than deploying all items at once

Answer

Selective deployment lets you choose individual items within a pipeline stage to promote, giving granular control over what gets deployed in each operation.

Question 4

How can Fabric deployment pipeline deployments be incorporated into an Azure DevOps CI/CD release pipeline?

Accepted Answer

By calling the Fabric REST API deploy endpoint from a script task in the Azure DevOps pipeline

Answer

Fabric deployment pipelines are triggered via REST API calls, which can be incorporated into Azure DevOps release pipelines using PowerShell or Bash script tasks.

Question 5

What is the primary advantage of combining Git integration with deployment pipelines in a Fabric CI/CD strategy?

Accepted Answer

Git provides version history and branching for collaboration while pipelines handle stage promotion with environment-specific configuration rules

Answer

Git integration and deployment pipelines serve complementary roles: Git manages source control and collaboration while pipelines manage environment promotion with stage-specific configurations.
