You have a deployment pipeline for a Power BI workspace. The workspace contains two datasets that use import storage mode.
A database administrator reports a drastic increase in the number of queries sent from the Power BI service to an Azure SQL database since the creation of the deployment pipeline.
An investigation into the issue identifies the following:
One of the datasets is larger than 1 GB and has a fact table that contains more than 500 million rows.
When publishing dataset changes to development, test, or production pipelines, a refresh is triggered against the entire dataset.
You need to recommend a solution to reduce the size of the queries sent to the database when the dataset changes are published to development, test, or production.
What should you recommend?

• A. Turn off auto refresh when publishing the dataset changes to the Power BI service.
• B. In the dataset, change the fact table from an import table to a hybrid table.
• C. Enable the large dataset storage format for workspace.
• D. Create a dataset parameter to reduce the fact table row count in the development and test pipelines.

HOTSPOT You manage a dataset that contains the two data sources as shown in the following table.

When you attempt to refresh the dataset in powerbi.com, you receive the following error message: [Unable to combine data] Add Columns is accessing data sources that have privacy levels which cannot be used together. Please rebuild this data combination.
You discover that the dataset contains queries that fold data from the SharePoint folder to the Azure SQL database.
