A company designs data integration with an external system by using virtual tables.

You need to implement the virtual tables.

Solution: Use a table that has a GUID as its primary key.

Does the solution meet the goal?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: A

For implementing virtual tables, the requirement is for the external data source to have a primary key that can uniquely identify each record. A GUID is a globally unique identifier which fits this requirement perfectly. Using a GUID as the primary key ensures that each record can be uniquely identified across different systems, making it an ideal choice for data integration with virtual tables. Therefore, using a table with a GUID as its primary key meets the goal.

If all the entities in external data source have an associated GUID primary key then we can implement the virtual entities for sure. For Reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customerengagement/on-premises/developer/virtual-entities/get-started-ve?view=op-9-1

Looks like integers can also be used as a primary key. "SQL virtual tables can use a GUID or an Integer field for the Primary Key for functionality." https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/data-platform/limits-tshoot-virtual-tables?tabs=sql
