SC-300 Certification Practice Question #244

Question

You have an Azure subscription that contains a registered app named App1.

You need to review the sign-in activity for App1. The solution must meet the following requirements:

•	Identify the number of failed sign-ins.
•	Identify the success rate of sign-ins.
•	Minimize administrative effort.

What should you use?

Accepted Answer

The requirement is to see failed sign-ins AND the success rate for one app with minimal administrative effort. The Microsoft Entra application activity report in Usage & insights is purpose-built for this: it lists applications and lets you sort directly by successful sign-ins, failed sign-ins, and success rate — no filtering or manual math required. Sign-in logs (A) contain the raw events but show only per-event Status, so the admin would have to filter to App1 and calculate the success rate themselves, which is more effort and the basis for the tie-breaking "minimize administrative effort" clause. Access reviews (B) and Audit logs (C) don't surface sign-in success metrics at all. Suggested Answer, the 39-vote community majority, and MS Learn all converge on D.
