Correct Answer:
Exam PL-400 Question 300

Box 1: pac solution init --publisher-name

Create a new solutions project using the following command. The solution project is used for bundling the code component into a solution zip file that is used for importing into Dataverse. pac solution init --publisher-name developer --publisher-prefix de

Box 2: pac auth create -

Connecting to your environment.

Auth commands are used to authenticate to Dataverse.

Creates the authentication profile for your organization by passing the url parameter. Shows AAD dialog if sign in credentials are not specified.

Example: pac auth create --url https://Myorg.crm.dynamics.com

Box 3: pac pcf push --publisher-prefix

Deploying code components -

After you have successfully created an authentication profile, you can start pushing the code components to the Dataverse instance with all the latest changes.

The push capability speeds up the inner-developer cycle development because it bypasses the code component versioning requirements and does not require that you build your solution (cdsproj) to import the code component.

To use the push capability, do the following:

1. Ensure that you have a valid authentication profile created.

2. Navigate to the directory where the sample component file is located.

3. Run the command.

pac pcf push --publisher-prefix

Incorrect:

Commands for working with Dataverse solution projects include:

Parameter init -

Initializes the solution project. It has the following parameters: publisher-name: Publisher name of the organization. publisher-prefix: Publisher prefix of the organization.

About package, IMO, it is pac solution add-reference. pac solution init -> create a empty project and it does not contain any pcf component yet. pac solution add-reference -> add the pac component to the project, means Package, I think...

wrong, your link says that creates the solution, they still then have to add the reference, no where does the question say that you have to create a solution as well. add ref for the first answer

IMO - Add Reference (The action is Package, not Create, so I don't think the Init empty solution is correct) - Auth - Push
