What is a con of Method 3 (Add a Setup Data Extension to the template)?

• A. It cannot be built without coding in M.
• B. Documentation is sometimes hard to read; you must learn M.
• C. It is always impossible to display data.
• D. It requires no setup.

Answer: (B)

Using a Setup Data Extension to feed a template gives you a flexible way to supply data, but it often means working with the M language to access and shape that data. The main drawback is that the documentation for M can be hard to read, so you must learn M to implement and maintain the integration effectively. This isn’t a blanket rule that you can’t build without M, but deeper functionality and troubleshooting typically require learning M. It’s not true that displaying data is impossible or that no setup is needed—the approach requires setting up the data extension and connecting it to the template.
