Question
A company is configuring a Power Apps portal using Microsoft Dataverse.
The company requires the following:

✑ Authenticated users must have varying degrees of access to the different parts of the portal.
✑ Users must enter one of several external identities when creating an account during the open registration process.
You need to configure user authentication and permissions.
Which component should you use? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:
Explanation
Required for each authenticated user before security can be assigned: Contact table record. Every portal (Power Pages) user is represented by a contact record in Microsoft Dataverse, and the external identity chosen during open registration is linked to that contact. Web roles and other permissions are assigned to the contact, so the contact must exist first. Account records represent organizations, not sign-in users, and 'Local user' and 'Microsoft work or school account' are only ways to authenticate.
Required for authenticated users to access restricted pages of the portal: Web roles. A web role is a collection of permissions to site content; before authenticated users can be granted access to restricted pages (page permissions) or restricted tables (table permissions), they must be assigned to a web role. The authentication options control how someone signs in, not what they can open.
