more about certification

hi, why does it appear that taking the exam is different from earning the certification at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/certifications/power-bi-data-analyst-associate/  ? .    also, i assume its $165 per try but how many times can you try?  Also is the embedded functionality part of the exam?

Hi @db042190 

 

What that means is you take the exam and if you pass you get the certification.

 

As far as I know sometimes if you do not pass you can try again for a reduced fee.
