Sample Microsoft Azure mock test questions

One question from each level, the way they appear in the test. A new set comes on the 1st of every month. Try it, then open the answer.

  1. FresherApp Service

    Which domain suffix does a new App Service web app get for its default host name?

    • azurewebsites.net
    • blob.core.windows.net
    • vault.azure.net
    • cloudapp.azure.com
    Show the answer

    Answer: azurewebsites.net. Web apps get a default host name under azurewebsites.net, and you can add your own custom domain. cloudapp.azure.com is used for DNS labels on public IPs, blob.core.windows.net for Blob Storage and vault.azure.net for Key Vault.

  2. Intermediate (1-5 years)Virtual Machines

    How can you install nginx automatically the first time a new Ubuntu VM boots, with no manual login?

    • Turn on boot diagnostics, which runs every script stored in the storage account at startup
    • Add the name of the package as a tag called install on the VM, which the Azure guest agent then reads
    • Pass a cloud-init file as custom data, for example az vm create ... --custom-data cloud-init.yaml
    • Choose a VM size that ends in -nginx, so the image comes with the web server preinstalled
    Show the answer

    Answer: Pass a cloud-init file as custom data, for example az vm create ... --custom-data cloud-init.yaml. Ubuntu images on Azure run cloud-init on first boot, which reads the custom data and can install packages, write files and run commands. For later changes, use extensions, Run Command or configuration tools.

  3. Experienced (5+ years)Entra ID and RBAC

    A user was just given a new role. A colleague confirms it in the portal, but the user's script still gets 403 for a while. What is the likely reason?

    • The role works in the portal only, and scripts need a second role assignment of their own first
    • Azure RBAC is checked only once a week, when the cache of all assignments is rebuilt
    • A new role only works after the user has been signed out of every device for a full day
    • Role changes take time to propagate and cached tokens may be old; refresh the token and retry
    Show the answer

    Answer: Role changes take time to propagate and cached tokens may be old; refresh the token and retry. Assignments are not instant everywhere, and an access token issued before the change can still be in use. Getting a new token, for example az account get-access-token after re-login, usually clears it.

  • 75% or more in a topica strength
  • 50% to 74%worth a revision
