Question 1

While testing a form, you need to verify the contents of a data page in memory. Which tool do you use to view the current contents of the data page?



Answer : A

To inspect and verify the contents of a data page during form testing:

A . The Clipboard tool. This tool is integral for developers to view and manage the current state of data pages in memory, providing a detailed snapshot of all data pages loaded during a session, including their contents and structure. It is invaluable for verifying data integrity and troubleshooting data-related issues in forms.


Question 2

When a user selects a item in a list, the application displays data about that item. Data is copies to a page property using the Copy from a data page options.

After the data has been copies to the property, when is the data copies to the property again?



Answer : C

In the context of copying data from a data page to a page property in Pega:

C . The next time the property is accessed. The data is copied to the property again whenever the property is accessed, ensuring that the most current data from the data page is reflected. This behavior is part of Pega's strategy to maintain updated and relevant data within user interactions, particularly in dynamic environments where data can change frequently.


Question 3

A library application used by staff creates a book request case when a member wishes to borrow one or more books. As part of the case process, the application shows the staff a read only list of outstanding past-due books to remind the member to return late books, select the Data page definition for this use case.



Answer : D

For the use case where a library application displays a read-only list of outstanding past-due books to staff during the book request case process, the appropriate Data Page configuration needs to ensure the data is accessible and specific to each user session without the possibility of modification.

D . List, Readonly, Requestor: This configuration is optimal for the described scenario. A 'List' type is suitable because it involves displaying multiple records (outstanding books). 'Readonly' ensures that the data cannot be altered during the process, maintaining the integrity of the information displayed. The 'Requestor' scope is chosen because the information needs to be specific to the user session, providing a personalized reminder for the staff member to notify the member about their past-due books.

Options involving 'Page' (B, C, E) are not suitable as they are designed for single records rather than lists. 'Editable' (B, E) permissions are unnecessary and potentially problematic for this use case since the data should not be modified. 'Node' scope (F) would not provide the user-specific session data needed for this functionality.


Question 4

In which three situations can you use a data transform? (Choose Three)



Answer : A, C, D

Data transforms in Pega can be used effectively in the following scenarios: A. Setting a destination location to match an arrival location as part of data normalization. C. Automatically calculating and setting a future date based on a specific business logic, such as setting an arrival date five days ahead. D. Merging multiple pieces of data, such as first and last names, into a single property to facilitate easier data management or reporting.


Question 5

University admission application cases automatically advance in the case life cycle if the application standardized test scores are above a certain threshold.

The threshold is determined each year based on the provided national average score.

Which two configurations, when applied together, support this requirement? (Choose Two.)



Answer : A, D

For automating the advancement of university admission application cases based on standardized test scores, the correct configurations would be:

A . Configure a process with a decision shape that continues if the TestThreshold configuration setting is less than the applicant's test score. This configuration directly supports the requirement by placing a decision shape in the process that compares the applicant's test score against a pre-configured threshold. If the score exceeds the threshold, the case advances, automating the workflow based on performance.

D . Configure a TestThreshold Configuration setting with the national average for the test score threshold. This option involves setting a dynamic threshold that adjusts based on the national average each year. It ensures that the decision shape in Option A has a relevant and up-to-date threshold to compare against.

Options B and C are incorrect because B involves calculating the average rather than setting a threshold, and C incorrectly states the comparison logic.


Question 6

Which two control types allow you to display three balance transfer offers on a form with a single control, to prevent the customer from selecting more than one offer? (Choose Two)



Answer : B, D

To display multiple options (like balance transfer offers) on a form where only one can be selected at a time, the suitable control types are:

B . Radio buttons. Radio buttons are ideal for allowing users to select one option from multiple choices. They are mutually exclusive, which means selecting one option deselects any other previously selected option.

D . Drop-down list. A drop-down list also allows users to select one option from multiple choices presented in a compact form. It ensures that only one selection can be made at any time, fitting the requirement to prevent multiple selections.


Question 7

Which two items must be provided by the user to add an external data source to a data object? (Choose Two)]



Answer : A, D

Adding an external data source to a data object in Pega requires specific details to ensure proper integration and functionality:

A . The authenticating information, if required by the corresponding service. Secure access to external data services often requires authentication details, such as API keys or login credentials, to ensure that interactions are authorized.

D . The uniform resource identifier that identifies the web service. The URI is crucial as it specifies the exact location and endpoint of the web service from which data is to be fetched, acting as a link between the Pega application and the external data source.
