Question 1

A developer is working with Sitecore's Authoring and Management API to manage their Sitecore content using GraphQL. They want to explore and interact with the API using the GraphQL integrated development environment (IDE). Which of the following statements is correct about using the GraphQL IDE?



Answer : B

Access to the GraphQL IDE for exploring and managing Sitecore content via the Authoring and Management API requires a developer to have the sitecore\Sitecore Client Users role. This role grants the necessary permissions to use the IDE for various operations, not just read-only access.


Question 2

A developer creates templates and adds standard values; items created from the templates should automatically have the Title field populated with the name of the item. What should they do to ensure this occurs?



Answer : A

In Sitecore XM Cloud, to automatically populate the Title field of items created from a template with the name of the item, the developer should set the $name token in the Title field of the template's standard values. This token is replaced with the actual item name when the item is created, ensuring that the Title field is automatically filled with the correct name.


Question 3

A developer is tasked with creating an item using the Sitecore Authoring and Management GraphQL API. Which of the following GraphQL mutations is the correct way to create a new item?



Answer : C

The correct GraphQL mutation to create a new item in Sitecore XM Cloud is createItem. This mutation allows developers to specify the necessary details such as the item's name, template ID, parent ID, language, and fields to create a new content item within the Sitecore content tree.


Question 4

A developer is updating the security access rights for a new role in the Security Editor. Which of the following permissions are they able to manage? Select all that apply.



Answer : A, D, E

According to the Sitecore XM Cloud Documentation for Developers1, the Security Editor is a tool that allows you to assign access rights to your security accounts, such as users and roles. You can grant or deny the following access rights to individual items in the content tree2:

Write -- grants or denies the right to edit the item and its fields.

Read -- grants or denies the right to view the item and its fields.

Inheritance -- grants or denies the right to inherit the access rights from the parent item.

The other access rights, such as Debug, Access, Rename, Create, Delete, and Administer, are not available in the Security Editor, but can be assigned using other tools, such as the Access Viewer or the User Manager13.

Question 5

Which of the following tasks are performed by the publishing pipeline to create an accurate snapshot of the content available for publishing from the Content Management instance? Select all that apply.



Answer : A, B, D

The publishing pipeline in Sitecore XM Cloud performs several tasks to ensure an accurate snapshot of content is available for publishing from the Content Management instance. These tasks include calculating additional entities to publish, calculating dependencies, and resolving dependencies. These steps are crucial for maintaining the integrity and consistency of the published content.


Question 6

A build to XM Cloud fails. Which options are available for a developer to diagnose the error?



Answer : D

According to the Sitecore XM Cloud Documentation for Developers1, the deployment log files contain the progress, status, warnings, and errors of an XM Cloud deployment. You can access the deployment log files from the XM Cloud Deploy app by clicking the Logs button on the environment page. The log files include information about the provisioning, build, deployment, and post action phases of the deployment. You can also download the log files for offline analysis or troubleshooting2.

The other options are not as useful for diagnosing a build failure:

The Deploy app system status page shows the overall health and availability of the XM Cloud Deploy app, not the status of individual deployments3.

The Content Management instance logs for the environment show the runtime logs of the Content Management instance, not the build logs of the deployment4.

The project details page in the Deploy app shows the general information and settings of the project, not the details of the deployment1.

Question 7

When a developer designates a Sitecore template field multilist type, what should they do next?



Answer : C

After designating a Sitecore template field as a multilist type, the next step is to set the data source for the multilist. This involves specifying the location within the content tree from which the list items will be drawn. The data source defines the scope of items that can be selected and displayed in the multilist.
