Question 1: Which PowerShell module is used to manage Microsoft Teams configurations via command line?

The MicrosoftTeams PowerShell module provides cmdlets for managing Teams settings, policies, and resources.

Question 2: Which Teams setting allows an organization to configure a custom URL that users are redirected to when they click 'Get Help' in Teams?

Messaging policy
Help and feedback settings
Customized help URL in Teams admin center (Correct answer)
Teams upgrade policy

Correct answer: Customized help URL in Teams admin center

The Teams admin center allows administrators to set a customized help URL under org-wide Teams settings to redirect users to internal support resources.

Question 3: To meet the security requirements, you must configure the user accounts of the users in the sales department. What must you carry out for every user?

From PowerShell, run the Grant-CsTeamsUpgradePolicy -PolicyName Islands cmdlet.
From PowerShell, run the Grant-CsTeamsUpgradePolicy -PolicyName SfBOnly cmdlet.
From the Microsoft Teams admin center, set the Microsoft Teams upgrade policy to Islands coexistence mode.
From PowerShell, run the Grant-CsTeamsUpgradePolicy -PolicyName SfBWithTeamsCollabAndMeetings cmdlet. (Correct answer)

Correct answer: From PowerShell, run the Grant-CsTeamsUpgradePolicy -PolicyName SfBWithTeamsCollabAndMeetings cmdlet.

To configure specific user accounts with a particular Teams upgrade policy, you must use PowerShell. The `Grant-CsTeamsUpgradePolicy` cmdlet is used to assign a Teams upgrade policy to individual users. Specifying `-PolicyName SfBWithTeamsCollabAndMeetings` ensures that users retain Skype for Business for calling and meetings while gaining access to Teams collaboration features, aligning with a phased migration or specific coexistence requirements.

Question 4: A user wants to use a third-party app within Teams but the app is not listed in the Teams app store. What must an admin do to make it available?

Configure a direct connection to the vendor's app via Azure API Management
Upload the app as a custom app (sideload) and allow custom apps in the tenant (Correct answer)
Enable external access to allow the app to be accessed externally
Ask the vendor to submit the app to the Microsoft Teams app store

Correct answer: Upload the app as a custom app (sideload) and allow custom apps in the tenant

Admins can upload custom apps (sideload) to the Teams admin center and enable custom app uploads in org-wide app settings and app permission policies to make them available.

Question 5: An admin configures an app setup policy that pins the Viva Engage app for all users. Users report they can still remove it from their left rail. What is the most likely reason?

The policy is set to allow user pinning, enabling users to rearrange or remove pinned apps (Correct answer)
The Viva Engage app requires a Teams Only coexistence mode
The Teams version is outdated
The app is not approved in the app permission policy

Correct answer: The policy is set to allow user pinning, enabling users to rearrange or remove pinned apps

If 'Allow user pinning' is enabled in the app setup policy, users retain the ability to reorder or remove admin-pinned apps from their navigation rail.

Question 6: For their teams' file tabs, users have mostly been using Dropbox rather than M365 options like OneDrive or SharePoint. To promote M365 adoption, you must configure Microsoft Teams as an administrator to disable third-party storage solution providers like Dropbox. What should you set up to do this?

App setup policy
Teams settings (Correct answer)
App permission policy
Teams policy

Correct answer: Teams settings

To disable third-party storage solution providers like Dropbox in Microsoft Teams, you need to configure the organization-wide Teams settings. Within the Teams admin center, under 'Teams settings,' there are options to control which cloud storage providers are available for users to add as file tabs. Disabling Dropbox here will prevent users from connecting it to their teams.

Question 7: What Teams Phone feature ensures emergency calls include the caller's physical location when dialed from a corporate building?
