AZ400-Q: audit who approved deployment

Auditors ask who approved a production deployment, what artifact was deployed, and which checks passed. Where should the team capture this evidence?

  • A) In the deployer’s personal notes.
  • B) In a mutable team spreadsheet only.
  • C) In a deleted chat thread.
  • D) In protected environment/deployment history linked to the pipeline run, artifact version, checks, and approvals. ✓

Answer: D. Environment and pipeline evidence provides a durable, connected deployment record.

Why not the others: Personal, mutable, or deleted records are weak audit evidence.
