You are managing a Dataplex environment with raw and curated zones. A data engineering team is uploading JSON and CSV files to a bucket asset in the curated zone but the files are not being…

Question

Options

• AMove the JSON and CSV files to the raw zone.
• BEnable auto-discovery of files for the curated zone.
• CUse the bg command-line tool to load the JSON and CSV files into BigQuery tables.
• DGrant object level access to the CSV and JSON files in Cloud Storage.

• A
  83% (20)
• B
  4% (1)
• C
  8% (2)
• D
  4% (1)

Explanation

Moving files to the raw zone (A) is correct because Dataplex curated zones are designed exclusively for structured, schema-compliant data (such as BigQuery tables or Hive-partitioned structured formats) - raw file types like JSON and CSV are only auto-discovered in raw zones, which are built to accept data in its original, unprocessed format.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B is wrong because there is no "enable auto-discovery" toggle for curated zones that overrides the zone's structural requirements; the zone type itself governs what Dataplex discovers.
• C is wrong because loading files into BigQuery is a transformation step, not a discovery solution - it also sidesteps the Dataplex zone architecture entirely.
• D is wrong because this is a permissions concern, not a discovery configuration issue; Dataplex not discovering files is a zone-type mismatch, not an access problem.

Memory tip: Think of the zone names literally - raw zones hold raw files (CSV, JSON, etc.), curated zones hold curated/structured data. If your data hasn't been structured yet, it belongs in raw.
