• B

• C

• D

Explanation

Adding the Fabrikam users to the application group that contains App1 is the correct first action because Azure Virtual Desktop automatically applies Per-user access pricing to guest/external users who lack qualifying Microsoft 365 licenses - no separate license assignment is required to satisfy that billing requirement. This single step simultaneously grants App1 access to Fabrikam users while keeping costs minimal, since the existing Pool1 infrastructure handles both internal and external users without any new resources.

Option B (new host pool in Sub1) and Option D (new host pool in a new subscription) are wrong because Pool1 already exists and can serve all users - adding infrastructure is unnecessary and increases cost. Option C (assigning Microsoft 365 F3 to Fabrikam users) directly contradicts the requirement to use Per-user access pricing, and paying per-seat licenses for partner users when Per-user access pricing is available would not minimize costs.

Memory tip: Think of Per-user access pricing as AVD's "guest pass" - it automatically kicks in for unlicensed external users the moment you add them to an application group, so your first move is always to grant access, not to provision new infrastructure or buy licenses.
