Microsoft Exam DP-203 Topic 10 Question 81 Discussion

Actual exam question for Microsoft's DP-203 exam

Question #: 81
Topic #: 10

You have an Azure SQL database named DB1 and an Azure Data Factory data pipeline named pipeline.

From Data Factory, you configure a linked service to DB1.

In DB1, you create a stored procedure named SP1. SP1 returns a single row of data that has four columns.

You need to add an activity to pipeline to execute SP1. The solution must ensure that the values in the columns are stored as pipeline variables.

Which two types of activities can you use to execute SP1? (Refer to Data Engineering on Microsoft Azure documents or guide for Answers/Explanation available at Microsoft.com)

AStored Procedure

BLookup

CScript

DCopy

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, B

the two types of activities that you can use to execute SP1 areStored ProcedureandLookup.

A Stored Procedure activity executes a stored procedure on an Azure SQL Database or Azure Synapse Analytics or SQL Server1.You can specify the stored procedure name and parameters in the activity settings1.

A Lookup activity retrieves a dataset from any data source that returns a single row of data with four columns2.You can use a query to execute a stored procedure as the source of the Lookup activity2.You can then store the values in the columns as pipeline variables by using expressions2.

Yeah, the Lookup activity might not be the best fit here. I'm leaning towards the Stored Procedure activity as well. It should allow us to execute the stored procedure and map the output columns directly to pipeline variables.

The Lookup activity could also work, but I'm not sure if it would allow us to capture the individual column values as pipeline variables. That's a key requirement in the question.

I think the Stored Procedure and Lookup activities are the two options we should consider here. The Stored Procedure activity seems like the most straightforward way to execute the SP1 stored procedure and get the results.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. We need to find a way to execute the stored procedure in the Azure Data Factory pipeline and capture the output as pipeline variables.
