Exam overview
About the Exam MS-300: Deploying Microsoft 365 Teamwork Exam
Teamwork administration involves matching collaboration structures to how people need to communicate and manage files. In Teams, administrators and owners work with team templates, channels, apps, and membership; private channels can separate access and files from the rest of a team. SharePoint tasks include grouping site collections for management, defining reusable document metadata with site columns and content types, and configuring versioning and approval workflows. Administrators also make decisions about tenant-level external sharing and retention policies that protect content when users edit or delete it. These skills connect Teams experiences to their SharePoint storage locations and require attention to permissions, discoverability, and lifecycle controls. Practice scenarios can help distinguish which setting or construct addresses a specific collaboration or content-management need.
Sample Practice Questions
Review a selection from this exam's published US Practice Tests practice bank.
An organization wants to make a Teams environment easier for employees by providing a consistent set of channels and pinned apps when a new team is created. Which feature can provide this starting configuration?
Show answer
Correct answer: ATeams templates provide predefined or customized structures, including channels and apps, to help create teams consistently for common work scenarios.
A SharePoint administrator needs to make a set of related sites discoverable and manageable under a common administrative boundary. Which construct is designed to group site collections for shared management?
Show answer
Correct answer: BA site collection is a group of SharePoint sites managed together under a common top-level site and administrative boundary. A hub site associates sites for shared navigation and discovery, but does not group them into one site collection.
A business process requires a structured set of fields on documents, such as owner, review date, and document category. Which SharePoint feature provides reusable definitions for these fields?
Show answer
Correct answer: ASite columns define reusable metadata fields that can be added to content types and lists or libraries. This supports consistent metadata across locations.
A team wants to discuss a subject separately from its other work, with its own conversation area and related resources. What should a team owner create in Microsoft Teams?
Show answer
Correct answer: AA channel provides a focused collaboration area within a team for conversations and related work. Meeting policies, retention rules, and calling queues serve administrative or telephony purposes rather than organizing team discussions.
A company wants documents in a SharePoint library to be approved before they become visible as a major version to readers. Which library capability should be configured?
Show answer
Correct answer: AContent approval lets a designated approver accept or reject items before they are published for readers, often in conjunction with versioning and draft visibility settings. Checkout reserves editing of a document, audience targeting personalizes visibility, and managed metadata navigation supports browsing.
A user reports that a Teams channel's files are missing from the channel view, but the team still exists. Where are standard channel files stored?
Show answer
Correct answer: AFiles shared in a standard Teams channel are stored in a folder in the SharePoint site associated with the team. Teams provides the collaboration interface, while SharePoint stores the channel's files.
An organization wants to ensure that important SharePoint content is retained according to a defined schedule, even if a user deletes or edits it. Which Microsoft Purview capability is designed for this purpose?
Show answer
Correct answer: ARetention policies can specify how long content is retained and what happens when the retention period ends. Sensitivity labels classify and protect content, while Conditional Access governs access and DLP detects or restricts specified data use.

Preparation tips
- Map standard and private Teams channels to their membership boundaries and associated SharePoint file locations.
- Practice choosing among SharePoint site columns, content types, library approval, and versioning for document-management scenarios.
- Compare tenant-level external-sharing controls with site or library permissions, and identify where each applies.
- Review how retention policies address content lifecycle requirements, including edits and deletions.
- For Teams app and team-creation scenarios, distinguish app permission controls from team templates and channel configuration.
