Exam AB-900 Topic 2 Question 86 Discussion

Actual exam question for Microsoft's AB-900 exam
Question #: 86
Topic #: 2
Your organization has a Microsoft 365 subscription.
The HR department at your company asks for a copy of all the recent files that were modified by a user named User1.
What should you use in the Microsoft Purview portal? To answer, select the appropriate solutions in the answer area.

Suggested Answer:


Explanation:

The correct answer is eDiscovery . In Microsoft Purview, eDiscovery is the solution used to search for content and export copies of that content from Microsoft 365 locations such as SharePoint and OneDrive.
Microsoft Learn states that when you export search results from eDiscovery, copies of native Office documents and other documents are exported . That directly matches the requirement to provide HR with a copy of files .
By contrast, Audit is primarily used to investigate user and admin activity records and can export those audit records to CSV , but it does not export the actual files themselves. Audit would help identify that User1 modified files, but the question asks for copies of the recent files modified by User1 , which is an eDiscovery content search and export scenario rather than an activity-log reporting scenario.
So, among the Microsoft Purview solutions shown, the appropriate selection is eDiscovery because it is the Purview tool designed to find and export the actual content items HR wants to receive.
