AZ-204 Study Guide: Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure

AZ-204 Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure Exam Study Guide

Besides preparing for AZ-104, I am also preparing for the new AZ-204 Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure exam, which was announced to replace the AZ-203 Azure Developer exam. There are many great resources out there to prepare for the exam, that’s why I want to share my AZ-204 Microsoft Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure Certification Exam Study Guide with you. To learn and prepare for the exam, I usually use a couple of online resources, mainly Microsoft Docs and Microsoft Learn, which I am going to share with you. You can find more information about how I prepare for a Microsoft Certification exam on my blog post: How to prepare and pass Microsoft Certification Exam.

Also, check out other Microsoft Azure Certification Exam Study Guides:

Here is my AZ-204 Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure Certification Exam Study Guide

It is essential to get familiar with the exam objectives and skills measured first. That is why I recommend reading the description of the exam and the skills measured.

Exam AZ-204: Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure

Candidates for this exam are cloud developers who participate in all phases of development from requirements definition and design, to development and deployment, and maintenance. They partner with cloud DBAs, cloud administrators, and clients to implement solutions.

    Hi Thomas, thanks for putting together this collection of resources, I’m finding it very useful. Under Implement secure cloud solutions, the Skills measured is missing one item: ‘implement Managed Identities for Azure resources’ when compared to the official list. Perhaps ‘https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/managed-identities-azure-resources/overview‘ would help in this section ?
    Cheers

    1. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      Hi Paul
      Correct. Thank you I added the section and the link.

    for azure az-204 wich book I can use for study? or is the same for az-203?.
    thanks

    1. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      Hi
      It will be similar, but not the same.

    2. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      Az-203 and Az-204 are very similar but not exactly the same. So you will need to see that you learn things which are not in 203 as well. However, it is not completely different, knowing the Az-203 stuff definitely helps (But it is not complete for Az-204)

  9. yhoms Avatar

    for az-204 whcig I can use for study? or is the same for az-203?

    Nice one Thomas really helpful, one question for provision VM topic do i need to prepare create disks, create VM images .. or is it enough prepare till creating and managing VM also for AZ-204 where can i get sample questions for each topic

    Thanks

    1. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      I think creating vm images is int the Az-104 exam.

      In Az-204 you have:
      – provision VMs
      – Creating ARM (Azure Resource Manager Templates)
      see above.

      Again because of the exam NDA I can’t go too deep into the questions. If you want to make 100% Sure I would have a look at how templates work. Even there is nothing specific listed in the guide.

    Hi Thomas can you please respond to my above query

  12. Ryan Avatar

    So if we read through every link posted while taking notes etc, and then perform the labs, how well prepared do you think we will be for the exam. A cakewalk or should we continue learning?

    Thanks for compiling all of this!

    1. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      We will see when my results come back ;) but I believe that this should be good enough to pass the exam.

    Thanks for putting these together. I just finished the Learn modules and started going through these links, but realized some of the tutorials are quite long (the VM tutorial, https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/tutorial-manage-vm?WT.mc_id=thomasmaurer-blog-thmaure spans 15 lessons and the ARM template tutorial is much longer). How far into these do you recommend we go?

    Again, thanks!

    Great compilation of resources! I’d also like to know if its possible to use Azure CLI / Powershell during the exam, e.g. the help (docs), in order to answer particular questions. Thanks

    1. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      Hi Sanjin,
      No, you can’t use any resources during the exam. You can only use the information which is stored in your brain :)

    Hi Thomas,

    It is a very good read. Can python/java developer will be able to take this exam (observed using C# SDK in most of the forums)? I am new to the Azure world and in the process of learning it.

    1. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      Hi
      In my experience, yes it often uses the C# etc. However, in my opinion, the Azrue Developer access doesn’t try to see if you are knowledgable on C# it asks more about the Azure specific things.

  21. Alberto De Natale Avatar
    Alberto De Natale

    Hi Thomas,
    Thank you again for your great post,

    There are some topics, eg. managing blobs tiers, that might be performed using administrative tools (like the Azure CLI) or by code using one of the available SDKs.

    For this exam, do you think we will need to know how to perform the same task using some administrative tools like Azure CLI or PowerShell or being familiar with the SDK will be sufficient?

    For instance, will we need to know that “az storage blob upload” works synchronously while “az storage blob copy” works asynchronously, hence more suited for big blobs?

    Thank you again for your great article,

    Alberto

    1. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      I don’t think the questions will go that deep into details as the example you mentioned :)

    AZ-204 is now live. Anyone who give the test on 18th May onward would be getting the result after the test.

    Hi,
    Has anyone cleared the exam. How was the exam?

    Also please let me know if this AZ-204 is a prerequisite for taking AZ-400 exam – Devops. Can AZ-204 be taken after AZ-400.

    Any idea?

    Regards,
    Karthick

    1. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      Hi Karthick
      The order of what exam you take first doesn’t matter. You can do AZ-400 first, or AZ-204 first. However, with AZ-400 you won’t have a certification until you haven’t done ether AZ-104 or AZ-204.

    Hi Thomas,

    Is it a mistake that the Microsoft Learn path includes several modules on Databricks? It does not appear to be in the skills outline (https://query.prod.cms.rt.microsoft.com/cms/api/am/binary/RE3VJUJ)

    Thanks for this great guide!

      Hi Brett, I am currently checking with the Learning team. I will let you know as soon as I get an answer back. :)

    Hi!

    First of all, thank you very much for your excellent study guide. Great stuff and tips available. I am more of a book person, preferring to read stuff from book so wondering if you guys know – is there going to be an Exam Ref AZ-204 book any time soon? The book that is intended just for the AZ 204 certification.

    Hi,

    “Work with relational data in Azure” is not part of AZ-204 then why it is in learning path.

    Please correct me If I am wrong.

      Thanks for the feedback, I just heard back for the team. This learning path will be removed from the official exam site.

    Hi Thomas, can you share anything more about the format of the exam? How long is it? Are the questions similar to other Azure exams, in the format of a mix of multiple choice questions and lab scenarios? I’m into the final stages of prep now, so it’d be handy to know what’ll be facing, aside from the actual content tested in the exam.

    1. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      Hi Andrew
      Yes the exam is similar to all the other Azure Exams. I wrote a blog about how to take Microsft Exams online, at the end of the blog you can find a link with information to the different questions styles: https://www.thomasmaurer.ch/2020/03/how-to-take-a-microsoft-certification-exam-online/

    Hi Thomas ,
    Thanks for the great stuff here , was looking forward for this to give the exam.
    But i have a small query – Regarding the links you have provided for each section under Microsoft Docs AZ-204 study guide resources , some of the tutorials are quite long.
    Till where are we supposed to study ? , could you please tell us.

    Thanks in advance!

    1. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      Hi Shiny
      It always depends on how much you need to learn or how much you already know. Some people can just read quickly through the tutorials and that is enough. Others need to try them out and go through them step by step. For me it is a mix. Some of the technologies I know, I can go fast, others I like to really try out to see how they work.
      Keep in mind it is not just for studying for the exam, the things you learn, you can also use for work. :)

    Hi Thomas,
    It is really helpful and content is also well structured.
    Just have a query, do we have to completely refer (go through) or as part of preparation to the reference link that are mentioned in between of tutorial.like For more information, see Kudu documentation in Deploy your app to Azure App Service with a ZIP or WAR file or is it ok if we leave i n case we are just aware of them.

    Thanks,

    Hi Thomas,

    Thanks for the post.
    You have been providing great insightful MS contents which are absolutely helpful.

    In relation to Microsoft Certified: Azure Developer Associate, what determines whether this particular certification was earned via AZ-203 or AZ-204? Does it result in the expiration or indicates anywhere?

    Thanks

    1. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      Yes, the exams are valid for a specific time. Both provide you with the same certification and the same duration. If you already have a Certification, you can find the expire date in the exam transcript.

    Hi Thomas, great article!
    I have two questions, thanks in advance!

    The docs: “Configure VMs for remote access”: “Connect to your Azure-based virtual machine” seems not to present anymore. Do you have a replacement article for this?

    And another question, how important is it to click through all the ‘next steps’ (sub)articles and hyperlinks within the articles? Because this seems like a never ending (information) story?

    I had not much AZ experience and I got my AZ-204. It took me 16 days between the day I started studying and the day I passed. Around 4 hours per day
    What did I do?
    1 – Pluralsight videos – https://app.pluralsight.com/paths/certificate/developing-solutions-for-microsoft-azure-az-204 (understand the concepts + right over the target)
    2 – This study guide (deeper knowledge – thanks Thomas it is very good)
    3 – Practice when the instructor/guide is practicing
    4 – Know the order to create things (webapps, cosmosdb and so on) and for the code too
    5 – Take notes for each topic (I have quite some notes for this exam, very useful though)
    6 – After finishing each part (there are 5 parts), do the measure up exam on that part and another with the previous parts you learned

    Hi Thomas,

    Thanks for the awesome guide. It seems like some pretty significant changes have been made to exam skills outline – updated 26th March 2021. For example no more “Logic apps”. More focus on Security.

    Please have a look.

    1. Thomas Maurer Avatar

      Hi Phil, Yes will need to find some time to do an update :) Thanks for mentioning it. I will see if I can do it next week :)

      Hi Peter, thanks. Can you point out which part is not up to date yet?

  58. Peter Avatar

    Sorry, I think I somehow confused a few things because. I couldn’t find FrontDoor in the official exam outline but this is a minor thin – you actually provided more than enough info to cover each part, thank you!

  59. Abdou Avatar

    The link you mentioned for the new “import OpenAPI definitions” part concerns “LogicApp” which has been removed following the new update of 26 March 2021.
    I think these links match better with Management API or FunctionApp

    I knew I was in trouble for this exam when I stumbled onto your web page the night before the exam and I was scared by the information I didn’t know. I thought I would do fine because I read the exam ref book az-204 twice; yeah, I was wrong. I read all the articles you listed along with Microsoft’s AZ-204 guide and passed. Thanks again!!

    Hi Thomas, I am C# .net developer and only familiar with Windows OS. Do I need to learn and practice the modules in Linux OS too, for taking the AZ 204 exam?

    Is this post still relevant in 2023?

      Curious about this too, I am halfway through the guide myself but would love to know if everything is still up to date!

    It was said on an Udemy course I used for training that VMs aren’t a part of this exam since April 2023. Also from 19.7.2023 API management will have a minor change in API management, although, I haven’t found out what is it exactly.

    Hi Thomas,

    Is it safe to stick to only the topics listed in the study guide by Microsoft? For example, logic apps is not a topic mentioned here, could that also be in the exam for example?
