AI-200 practice questions — Developing AI Cloud Solutions on Azure

The exam

What AI-200 tests

AI-200 validates the skills of an Azure AI developer who builds, deploys, and operates the back-end services and components of AI cloud solutions. Covers containerized hosting (Container Apps, AKS, App Service), AI-oriented data services (Cosmos DB for NoSQL, Azure Database for PostgreSQL with pgvector, Azure Managed Redis), event- and message-based integration (Service Bus, Event Grid, Azure Functions), and securing, monitoring, and troubleshooting the resulting solution. It succeeds AZ-204 (Azure Developer Associate) as Microsoft's certification for developers delivering AI-infused Azure applications.

Who it is for

Built for associate-level candidates

As a candidate for this Microsoft Certification, you're responsible for contributing to all phases of implementing AI solutions on Azure, with an emphasis on back-end services and components. You're also responsible for supporting all phases of the development lifecycle, including requirements gathering, design, development, deployment, security, and monitoring. You should be proficient in Azure SDKs and third-party SDKs used in Azure, Azure data management services, Azure monitoring and troubleshooting, Azure messaging and eventing, vector databases, Python programming, and implementing containerized applications on Azure.

753 questions

Across every domain above, in 5 formats: concept, scenario, ordering, multi-select, matching. Each one explains why the right answer is right and every distractor wrong.

A readiness map

Per domain, whether you are ready, weak, or not started — the same domains and weights as the exam itself.

Try one

One of each format AI-200 uses, from the same bank.

Answer on the page. The explanation appears when you submit; use Next to move through the formats.

Sample 1 · Concept

You are implementing a change feed processor for Contoso that must process changes from an orders container using multiple compute instances running in parallel for scalability. Each instance must automatically be assigned a distinct subset of partitions, and the workload must rebalance automatically when an instance is added or removed. What should you specify when building the processor?

Pick one, then submit.

Sample 2 · Scenario

You are the Azure developer for Contoso, Ltd. You need to push container images to an Azure Container Registry instance named acr1 from a build agent that runs outside Azure. The solution must follow the principle of least privilege and must not require storing a long-lived password in the build pipeline.

Pick one, then submit.

Sample 3 · Ordering

You are the developer for Contoso, Ltd. You have a Service Bus queue named payments-queue. A message on the queue has failed processing repeatedly and has been moved to the dead-letter queue. You need to inspect the dead-lettered message, correct the payload, and resubmit it to the main queue for reprocessing. Which four actions should you perform in sequence?

Drag an item onto another to swap them, or use the arrows, then submit.

1Send a new message with the corrected payload to payments-queue by using a ServiceBusSender.
2Create a ServiceBusReceiver scoped to the dead-letter subqueue of payments-queue.
3Complete the dead-lettered message to remove it from the dead-letter subqueue.
4Receive the message from the dead-letter subqueue and inspect its body and properties.

Sample 4 · Multi-select

Select all that apply: You are the developer for an AI ingestion service at Contoso that uses the OpenTelemetry .NET SDK. Distributed traces show spans for the API layer but no spans for outbound HTTP calls to a downstream Azure Function. You must ensure the downstream calls appear as child spans in the same trace without modifying the downstream service. Which two actions should you perform?

Select all that apply, then submit.

Sample 5 · Matching

Match each App Service configuration mechanism to the runtime behavior it produces for a container:
