Correct Answers: C and E

When you create a new custom table in the Power Apps portal using a New table panel, you can select from two types of tables: Standard - this is a default custom table type user can create.

Activity - this is a special custom table type for storing activity information like appointments, phone calls, emails, tasks, etc.

There is the third table type: Virtual.

This custom table type has columns that bring data from external sources, like Azure SQL Database or Azure Cosmos DB.

You need to use a classic interface for the creation of the virtual table.

When creating a new Dataverse custom table in the Power Apps portal, you have several options for the table type. The two table type options that you can choose from on a New table panel are:

  1. Standard
  2. Custom

Here's a detailed explanation of each of these options:

  1. Standard: A standard table is a pre-built table that is included in the Dataverse environment. It contains a set of predefined fields that are common to most businesses. Examples of standard tables include Account, Contact, and Opportunity. When you create a standard table, you can customize it by adding additional fields, changing the layout, or creating relationships with other tables.

  2. Custom: A custom table is a table that you create from scratch. You define the fields, data types, and relationships. This option gives you complete control over the table's structure and allows you to create a table that meets your specific business needs.

The other options listed in the answer choices (Admin, Business, and Activity) are not table type options that you can choose from when creating a new table.

  • Admin refers to the administrator role in the Power Apps portal and is not related to table creation.
  • Business is a term that could refer to a business entity, but it is not a table type option.
  • Activity is a type of entity in the Dataverse environment that is used to track interactions or events. However, it is not a table type option that you can choose from when creating a new table.
