Chapter 1 in full: Prepare the data

28% of the exam, about 14 questions. These are its key points, as in the guide.

  1. Connect using the correct source connector; document credentials and privacy requirements before combining sources.
  2. Choose storage from requirements: Import stores a copy, DirectQuery queries a source, and Direct Lake is a Fabric-specific option. Check feature prerequisites rather than assuming all sources support all modes.
  3. Profile the relevant dataset scope before fixing errors. Distinguish null values, conversion errors and business-rule violations.
The rest of chapter 1, on this page
  1. Set data types deliberately and check locale when parsing dates or decimal separators. Keep the original values until you have validated the result.
  2. Use grouping to aggregate rows. Pivot creates columns from categories; unpivot turns repeated attribute columns into attribute-value rows.
  3. Merge combines tables using matching keys and a join kind. Append stacks rows; verify column names and compatible types.
  4. Build fact and dimension queries at a defined grain. Compare reference versus duplicate queries and turn off model loading for staging queries when appropriate.

Common mistakes in this chapter

  • Do not remove every error row before checking whether the error reveals a source or locale problem.
  • Append is not a key-based join. A reference query is not a guaranteed cached materialisation of its upstream result.
