A change manager wants to measure how many licensed users actively use Microsoft 365 Copilot across apps such as Teams, Word, and Outlook, and to see adoption trends over time so the rollout can be justified to leadership. Which capability provides this?
ACopilot Analytics and the adoption reports in the Microsoft 365 admin center, which report active usage and adoption trends across Copilot-enabled apps.check_circle Correct
BThe Microsoft Entra ID sign-in logs, which record each authentication to the Copilot application per user.
CThe Microsoft Purview audit log search, which returns each individual Copilot prompt and response as an auditable event.
DThe Azure Cost Management usage reports, which show Copilot consumption by billing meter over the period.
Copilot adoption and active usage across apps is measured through Copilot Analytics and the adoption reports in the Microsoft 365 admin center. Copilot Analytics and the adoption reporting in the Microsoft 365 admin center aggregate enabled versus active users and usage trends across Copilot-enabled apps, which is the evidence a change manager needs to demonstrate adoption, unlike sign-in, audit, or billing data.
Why A is correct: Correct. Copilot usage and adoption reporting, surfaced through Copilot Analytics and the Microsoft 365 admin center, shows enabled and active users and usage trends across the Copilot-enabled apps.
Why B is wrong: Tempting because sign-in logs show authentication activity, but they do not break down active Copilot usage per app or present adoption trends, which is what the change manager needs.
Why C is wrong: Tempting because the audit log captures Copilot interactions for compliance, but it produces per-event records for investigation, not aggregate adoption metrics or usage trends.
Why D is wrong: Tempting because cost reports show spend over time, but they track billing rather than how many people actively use Copilot in each app, so they do not measure adoption.

Answers that look right on this material and are not. Each one is a distractor from a different question in the AB-900 bank for this domain.
Microsoft Purview Audit, which records each prompt and response for later eDiscovery review.
errorWhy it is wrong: Purview Audit captures individual activity records for investigation and compliance; it is not designed to present adoption trends or active-user counts for uptake analysis.
Register Microsoft 365 Copilot as an application in Microsoft Entra ID so the users can consent to it.
errorWhy it is wrong: App registration is how you add a custom or third-party application identity to the tenant, and it can feel like the way to introduce Copilot. Copilot is a Microsoft 365 service enabled by licensing, not by registering an app, so this does not grant users access.
The Microsoft Purview portal, by editing the departing employee's data governance settings to release the add-on.
errorWhy it is wrong: Tempting because Purview handles Copilot data governance, but licences are not assigned or released there; reassignment happens in the licensing area of the Microsoft 365 admin center.
