Description: Generate realistic 5-10 minute admin scenario walkthroughs through M365 admin centers. Each walkthrough is a guided simulation of a real AB-900 admin task with numbered steps, exact navigation paths, correct settings, and exam relevance notes. This skill replaces hands-on Azure lab tasks; AB-900 is an admin fundamentals exam, not a hands-on Azure lab exam.

Grounding

Required sources:

• Microsoft Learn (primary truth source for admin center navigation, feature behavior, and correct settings; access via Microsoft Learn MCP server and Copilot web search)
• Context7 MCP (when M365 PowerShell cmdlets or Graph API syntax appears in a step)

Style

Microsoft style:

• Use Microsoft instruction formatting conventions for UI labels, menu names, and dialog names.
• Bold clickable UI elements (buttons, menu items, portal names).
• Use exact product names and portal URLs.

Guardrails

• Keep every walkthrough within AB-900 scope (M365 admin tasks, not Azure infrastructure).
• No contractions.
• No ambiguous "navigate around until you find it" steps. Every step must name the exact portal, blade, menu item, or button label.
• Always use current Microsoft product names and navigation paths. Apply all mappings from the agent terminology table silently.
• Use fictional company names (Contoso, Fabrikam, Tailwind Traders, Northwind Traders, Adventure Works) for scenario context in the scenario_context field.
• No cleanup section is required. Admin configurations can be noted as reversible with a brief note; no Azure resource deletion is needed.

AB-900 accuracy rules (non-negotiable)

These navigation paths must be exact every time they appear. Do not approximate or invent alternative paths.

• DSPM for AI portal path: purview.microsoft.com > Solutions > DSPM for AI (classic)
• Copilot PAYG billing: admin.microsoft.com > Copilot > Billing & usage
• Agent approval queue: admin.microsoft.com > Agents > All agents > Requests
• Researcher and Analyst block: admin.microsoft.com > Agents > All agents (separate block entry; not controlled by general agent toggle)
• SharePoint oversharing remediation: purview.microsoft.com > Solutions > DSPM for AI (classic) > Oversharing reports
• Sensitivity label creation: purview.microsoft.com > Solutions > Information protection > Labels
• DLP policy management: purview.microsoft.com > Solutions > Data loss prevention > Policies
• Conditional Access: entra.microsoft.com > Protection > Conditional Access > Policies
• PIM role activation: entra.microsoft.com > Identity governance > Privileged Identity Management
• Copilot license assignment: admin.microsoft.com > Users > Active users > [user] > Licenses and apps

Supported scenario types

Select one of the following scenario types per walkthrough:

• Copilot licensing: Assigning or removing Microsoft 365 Copilot licenses, reviewing license consumption, or understanding subscription vs. pay-as-you-go models.
• Agent approval: Reviewing, approving, or blocking an agent submission in the agent approval queue; separately blocking Researcher or Analyst.
• DSPM for AI review: Opening the DSPM for AI (classic) dashboard, reviewing sensitive data signals, interpreting oversharing reports, or reviewing AI interaction logs.
• SharePoint oversharing: Identifying overshared SharePoint sites or files through DSPM for AI (classic) and remediating access.
• Sensitivity labels: Creating or modifying a sensitivity label, configuring label settings (encryption, marking, scope), and publishing a label policy.
• DLP policy: Reviewing a DLP policy alert, creating a DLP policy scoped to Copilot interactions, or configuring a policy tip.
• PIM/Conditional Access: Activating a PIM role for a Copilot-related admin task, or reviewing a Conditional Access policy that affects Copilot-licensed users.

Timebox guidance

A walkthrough should contain 5-10 numbered steps across all tasks. If the walkthrough requires more than 10 steps, split the content into two separate walkthroughs, each focused on a narrower objective. Estimated time is 5-10 minutes (admin center navigation only; no Azure resource creation).

Workflow

1. Choose a single AB-900 objective and state it at the top.
2. Select a scenario type and draft a fictional company context.
3. Ground every navigation path and setting in Microsoft Learn via the Microsoft Learn MCP server.
4. Draft 5-10 numbered steps. Each step must include: what to navigate to, what to configure or observe, what the correct setting or action is, and why it matters for AB-900.
5. Confirm that all portal URLs and navigation paths match the AB-900 accuracy rules above.
6. Map each step to an exam domain (Domain 1, 2, or 3) in the exam_connection field.
7. Add Microsoft Learn references.

Output format

walkthrough:
  title: "<Action-oriented title, e.g., 'Review DSPM for AI oversharing signals for a SharePoint site'>"
  domain: "<Domain 1 | Domain 2 | Domain 3>"
  objective: "<One sentence outcome tied to AB-900>"
  scenario_context: "<2-3 sentence fictional company scenario that sets the admin task context>"
  estimated_time: "<5 min | 10 min>"
  prerequisites:
    - "<Microsoft 365 admin access or specific role required>"
    - "<Any required license or configuration already in place>"
  steps:
    - step: 1
      action: "<What the admin does in this step>"
      portal: "<Portal URL, e.g., admin.microsoft.com | purview.microsoft.com | entra.microsoft.com>"
      navigation: "<Exact menu path, e.g., Copilot > Billing & usage>"
      correct_setting: "<What the correct value, toggle state, or selection is>"
      exam_relevance: "<One sentence explaining why AB-900 tests this step>"
    - step: 2
      action: "<...>"
      portal: "<...>"
      navigation: "<...>"
      correct_setting: "<...>"
      exam_relevance: "<...>"
  exam_connection:
    domain: "<Domain number and name>"
    key_objectives:
      - "<Objective line 1 from AB-900 study guide>"
      - "<Objective line 2 if applicable>"
    common_distractors:
      - "<Distractor 1: real but wrong path or setting a test-taker might choose>"
      - "<Distractor 2: real but wrong role or tool>"
  references:
    - "<Microsoft Learn URL 1>"
    - "<Microsoft Learn URL 2 if needed>"

Delivery rules

Walkthroughs are delivered in full (all sections in a single message). Unlike practice questions, there is no interactive hold-back of answers. If multiple walkthroughs are requested, deliver each walkthrough sequentially in the same message.

Quality checklist

• "Single objective, single scenario type."
• "All portal URLs and navigation paths match AB-900 accuracy rules exactly."
• "Every step has an action, portal, navigation path, correct setting, and exam relevance note."
• "Estimated time is 5-10 minutes."
• "No invented admin center paths or fake settings."
• "All product names and portal names use current terminology."
• "No contractions in any walkthrough text."
• "Fictional company name is used for scenario context."
• "At least one Microsoft Learn reference is included."
