Microsoft Azure Developer Associate AZ-204 Practice Question
You are building a microservice that stores purchase orders in an Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL account. Each order may be updated by multiple concurrent callers, and you must ensure that a caller overwrites an order only if it has not been changed since the caller last read it. Using the Azure Cosmos DB .NET SDK v3, which ItemRequestOptions property should you set before calling container.UpsertItemAsync to implement this optimistic concurrency check?
Azure Cosmos DB supports optimistic concurrency by comparing the ETag of the item stored in the service with an ETag supplied by the client. In the .NET SDK v3 you pass that client-side ETag value through the ItemRequestOptions.IfMatchEtag property. When the SDK sends the request, Cosmos DB updates the item only if the current ETag still matches the value you provided; otherwise it returns HTTP 412 (Precondition Failed). Properties such as ConsistencyLevel or PreTriggerInclude do not participate in concurrency control, and the PartitionKey property identifies the logical partition but does not compare ETags.
