AZ400-Q: review an infrastructure change before deployment

A Bicep change may delete a production resource if a parameter is wrong. The team wants the deployment pipeline to expose the planned impact before applying it. What should it add?

  • A) A longer agent timeout.
  • B) A what-if/preview step reviewed through the normal change and environment process before the apply stage. ✓
  • C) A public IP on the deployment agent.
  • D) A production deployment without source control so the template stays private.

Answer: B. A preview shows expected create/change/delete effects and supports review before an irreversible deployment stage.

Why not the others: Timeouts and IPs do not reveal deployment impact. Removing source control weakens review and traceability.
