NET Developer Certification Exam Questions

When you are working with a multisite implementation, what is the recommended practice for creating
each site’s tree structure?

Use the default Sites folder to store each site folder, and create a Home item for each site within the
folder.

Put all website content under the default Home item, prefixing the content with the name for each
website.

Create a specific site definition configuration, a folder for each site under the Content item, and a
Home item for each site within the folder.

Create the content for each site anywhere within the content tree and have it sorted by the <sites>
section of Sitecore.config.

Which two of the following statements are reasons for assigning security rights to roles instead of
individual users?

Assigning permissions to individual users can be confusing and create risk.

Roles enable you to control security access for groups of users and roles simultaneously.

User-level rights allow you to change security rights without altering an entire site.

Roles do not allow the ability to assign access restrictions to content created by other users.
It is more secure to manage access rights for individual users.

When is template inheritance not recommended for fields with the same name?

When the fields need to be validated

When the fields require the same field sources

When the fields are image field types

When the fields require different field sources

Sitecore recommends defining an item's presentation details as part of the standard values child item of
a data template. Why is it important to define presentation details in the standard values item?

Without the presentation details being defined on the standard values of the template, content creators
cannot create items from the template.

Items created from a template inherit the standard values, including presentation details, and NULL
fields default to the template standard values.

Defining the presentation details on the standard values is necessary for documentation and nothing
more.
This will force Sitecore to prompt content creators to set the specific presentation details for each item
they make upon creation.

The component you just completed is statically bound to a page. What is one implication of static
binding components like this?

Authors cannot select the component in the Content Editor in designing mode.

The component will not render when an Author views it in the Experience Editor.

The component will not render when the site is deployed and can be viewed live.

Authors cannot select the component in the Experience Editor in designing mode.

ItemAndDescendants

07/14

What is the purpose of a .env file when deploying Sitecore to containers?

The .env file is used to build the appropriate Docker containers when the command docker-compose up is
run.

The .env file contains the back-up settings needed to deploy the same environment on a new workstation.

The .env file is loaded as a volume to your containers to ensure the deployment of a consistent
environment.

The .env file allows you to declare environment variables for your Docker containers.

08/14

What is the purpose of the Sitecore Core database?

To serve as a backup of all users and passwords for the Sitecore editing tools.

To store only the published content for the entire Sitecore environment.

To store all draft and published versions of content for the website or websites.

To store settings and content for the Sitecore application itself.

09/14

With what are you synchronizing the Master database when using Sitecore's Publish command?

Items included in a selected workflow

The Web and Core databases

The Core database and Serialization source control

One or more identified publishing targets

10/14

You've been assigned the development task of setting the insert options for items in the content tree.
According to Sitecore best practices, where should you establish insert options for items?

Insert options are established as needed when new content item groups are created in the content tree.

Insert options are established in the item definition settings under the Configuration node of the content
tree.

Insert options are established on the root item of the content tree and are inherited by new items added
underneath the root.

Insert options are established on the standard values of an item template.

11/14

Which statement describes the difference between layouts and components?

The layout provides the base structure for a given delivery channel, while components are smaller
structure items added to the presentation details.

A layout and a component do not have any functionality difference, and users can use either term
interchangeably.

A layout is an item that is created from a template, while a component is an item that is not created
from a template.
A layout is a markup for smaller parts of the page, while a component is the general structure that uses
layouts to create parts of a page.

12/14

What is the primary function of the Layout Service?

To provide structured data about Sitecore-based pages including components and their associated
content

To provide the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript formatting necessary to render component data in a browser

To combine the content data with the formatting data provided by the rendering host when a HTTP call is
made

To render the components assigned to a given layout from the Content Delivery instance

13/14

When using Sitecore Content Serialization, what is the sitecore.json file in your development solution?

The configuration file for global development plugins and module locations

An alternative configuration file for headless environments instead of web.config

The solution integration file needed for deploying code changes to the environment

The environment variables file for your Sitecore Docker deployment

14/14

What will happen if you do not add the hostnames of your Sitecore environment to your Windows hosts
file?
You will not be able to access the Sitecore environment via the IP address in a browser.

Running the docker-compose up command will fail and the container environment will be unhealthy.

Nothing, this is an optional step in setting up your environment and is mainly used for record-keeping
purposes.

You will not be able to develop the environment using Sitecore MVC and must use headless methods,
like JSS.
