Microsoft GH-200 Exam Topics - You’ll Be Tested in Actual Exam
When you study GitHub Actions for the GH 200 exam, think in terms of four practical skills that connect day to day automation with governance. Author and maintain workflows by understanding how events trigger runs, how jobs and steps execute on runners, and how to use expressions, contexts, and secrets safely. You should be comfortable with environment variables, artifacts, caching, and controlling execution with conditions and job dependencies. Consuming workflows means you can reuse approved automation through workflow calls, pass inputs, inherit or map secrets, and pin versions so behavior stays predictable over time. You also need to judge when reuse is appropriate and how to debug failures by reading logs, rerunning jobs, and narrowing down which step changed. Author and maintain actions by knowing the difference between composite, JavaScript, and container actions, how metadata defines inputs and outputs, and why versioning and tagging matter for stability and supply chain safety. Finally, manage GitHub Actions in the enterprise by setting policies for which actions can run, configuring runner groups and permissions, controlling access to secrets, and using auditing and usage insights to balance security, cost, and reliability. Taken together, these topics help you design automation that is reusable, secure, and maintainable at scale.
