Microsoft refresh group 2 of 5 — October 28, 2026

This group refreshes ten guides and maps 883 current detailed objectives. 28 guides in three groups remain in the frozen 48-guide refresh after this group. The coordinator owns shared edits; three read-only role researchers supplied complete-guide/objective review and selected technical and learning-resource body evidence.

The operations ledger records exact final guide, objective and teaching-span hashes, opened URLs, source limits and history preservation. This is bounded AI-assisted review. Human review, a complete independent semantic audit and live product execution remain separate.

Objective acceptance and history

Nine current outlines are accepted after complete teaching reconciliation: DP-800 (October 19), SC-100/SC-200/SC-900/MB-330 (October 21), MD-102/MS-700 (October 27), and SC-300/SC-401 (October 28). Exact prior bytes are archived under their old hashes. Historical source and AI-audit records change only their pointers to those byte-identical files; earlier verdicts, checks, dates, counts and hashes remain unchanged.

MS-721 retains its April 28 accepted objective and status bytes. The October 29 future outline is mapped separately with 173 future bullets; it is not accepted as current on October 28. The initial historical matrix maps 831 bullets, while the final current matrix maps 883. Seventeen worked-example packets repair 44 teaching gaps. These counts describe different scopes.

SC-401 October 14 was credential LastUpdated metadata, not a separate effective-scope announcement; the current effective outline is October 28. SC-300 retains the unresolved authentication-domain weighting conflict: 25–30% in the summary versus 20–25% in the detailed heading.

DP-800

Clarify vector datatype dimensions, index v3 prerequisites and platform GA/preview boundaries. Separate versioned BACPAC support from contradictory DACPAC statements. Keep change event streaming as an integration objective, with platform/authentication requirements and the unresolved destination-table discrepancy. Correct fuzzy collation guidance. Add CTE, regex, fuzzy and tool-configuration examples.

MB-330

Add asset-loan, planning, supply-schedule and safety-stock examples with source-backed answer checkpoints. Retain warehouse quality and implementation prerequisites. Public lab instructions do not establish an executed Dynamics environment.

MD-102

Document the stronger 25-app Autopilot main/release evidence and the inconsistent lower more-than-10-app row. Explain tenant association and precedence. Add profiles, EPM, PKI, Tunnel and device-query examples; prior blocked paid pages remain historical observations.

MS-700

Keep the private-channel Workflows/Flow bot documentation conflict visible. Add app-acquisition and diagnostics exercises and update the publicly readable course metadata. No flow was deployed.

MS-721

Keep April current and October 29 future mappings separate. Update SBA restart/reconnection with cached-authentication and expiry limits. Display app support ended September 3, 2025; a compatibility effort does not extend support. Add phone-policy and optional room-capability matrices. The independent objective sweep adds explicit missing workflows and distinguishes the Windows-only custom-background limitation from the supported Android-specific portal workflow. Queue funding requirements supplement the broad license category.

SC-100

Keep the disappeared English Foundational CSPM default-change notice as a dated, unconfirmed observation; verify actual enabled plans and assessed coverage. No rollout or cancellation is inferred. Add a source-to-architecture learning worksheet.

SC-200

Retain conflicting Continuous/NRT and table-tier hunting guidance, including the supported extended-Analytics history search-job route. Anomaly duplicates start disabled and must be enabled in Flighting. Add tuning and investigation examples without claiming alert execution.

SC-300

Retain both conflicting domain weights. Mark October 30 telephony-provider configuration as future, scoped to the supported scenarios. Add Entra KQL and sign-in branding examples and role/consent checks.

SC-401

Correct metadata/effective-date interpretation. Scope FTP/SFTP Endpoint DLP to supported managed onboarded Windows devices; full-file evidence is a separate decision. Add label-role and file-client exercises. Update the public course outline to 27 modules and the inspected Udemy metadata without claiming paid lesson consumption.

SC-900

Teach current workload identity scope with agent identities as an example. Preserve the unconfirmed CSPM default implementation and actual coverage checks. Distinguish passkey policy evidence from successful enrollment.

Evidence and validation

The initial health pass checked 552 sources: 530 reachable, 22 automation-blocked and zero broken. All 37 new/reused associations returned HTTP 200. Thirty-three useful sources were registered, 83 evaluated learning entries updated and 24 selected technical body notes added. Ten learning routes and 21 technical corrections were applied. Independent-review repairs added 20 further sources; all 24 new/reused repair-source associations returned HTTP 200. Reachability, body reading, public course metadata and product execution are separate evidence. Paid interiors, assessments and videos were not consumed; no new local or cloud lab was executed.

Two fresh-context read-only reviewers read the ten complete final guides and diffs, verified current/future mapping bindings and independently reopened selected primary sources. Their passing bounded findings and repairs are embedded in the operations ledger. SC-300 token protocols and DP-800 CES integration are labeled as related context outside the changed objective bullets. Fifteen additional MS-721 topic omissions affecting 17 distinct objective rows were identified during independent review and the prompted complete semantic re-audit, then repaired with explicit workflows and rechecked. The original 44-gap record is preserved separately; valid hashes alone did not prove sufficient teaching. Two apparent MS-721 conflicts were rejected after independent scope checks: the no-custom-background portal statement is in the Windows tab, and linked funding requirements supplement the broad Calling Plan category. This does not complete a full rubric-2 semantic audit or human review.

All 199 tests, repository validation, reviewed-resource synchronization, strict MkDocs build, generated-site validation and whitespace checks passed. Preservation checks retain all 299 earlier source-review rows, 176 deep receipts and 42 AI-audit batches; only exact old objective pointers move to nine byte-identical archives. MS-721 accepted objective/status bytes remain unchanged. The final report assembly is followed by a repository/site/index gate before commit and push. Retained source conflicts remain blockers; no new product lab execution or production deployment is claimed.
