AB-100: Agentic AI Business Solutions Architect Expert
The AB-100 exam voucher costs Rs 13,000/= at induwara.lk, payable in Sri Lankan rupees by card or bank transfer. It is an official single-use voucher for the Microsoft exam, not a practice test or a training course. The voucher is valid for 12 months from purchase. After payment our team confirms your order and sends the voucher code by email.
What this voucher is
Sitting AB-100: Agentic AI Business Solutions Architect Expert? This is the Microsoft exam voucher, priced locally. It is the exam fee itself — a single-use code you redeem when you book your exam with the vendor's testing provider. It is not a training course, a practice test bundle or a study guide.
Each voucher is valid for 12 months from the date of purchase, so you can book the exam when you are ready rather than the day you buy.
Who sits this exam
AB-100: Agentic AI Business Solutions Architect Expert is aimed at analysts, data engineers and developers building on data platforms. It is an expert-level exam and is usually taken after the associate certification in the same track. Data and AI roles are the fastest-growing technical postings in Colombo, and most of them name a platform credential.
Why buy it here
Vendor exam fees are quoted in US dollars, which means the rupee price you actually pay depends on your card's rate on the day and whatever your bank adds on top. Here the price is fixed in rupees — Rs 13,000/= — so what you see is what leaves your account.
You can pay by card through PayHere, or by direct bank transfer if you would rather not put an exam fee on a card. Both are confirmed by us before anything is sent.
How delivery works
Delivery is handled by a person, not a script. Once your payment is confirmed, our team contacts you and sends the voucher code to the email address on your order. That usually happens the same day, and you will hear from us either way — if there is any delay sourcing a particular voucher, we tell you rather than leaving the order sitting.
If you need an invoice for an employer or a training budget, say so when you order and we will issue one against the order number.

What you get, and what happens next
What you get
One official single-use exam voucher for AB-100, AB-100: Agentic AI Business Solutions Architect Expert, covering the exam fee in full. It is a code, not a study course and not a practice test. There is nothing physical to ship and no delivery charge.
When it arrives
Emailed to the address on your order once we have confirmed the payment, by a person rather than automatically. In practice that is usually the same day and almost always within one working day. If sourcing a particular voucher is going to take longer, we tell you rather than leaving the order sitting.
How long it stays valid
12 months from purchase. Book and sit the exam before it expires, a code that has simply run out of time cannot be replaced, so do not buy months ahead of when you plan to use it.
How you redeem it
Book the exam with Pearson VUE as normal, then enter this code at the payment step instead of paying the fee. You choose the date, and whether you sit it at a test centre or from home with OnVUE proctoring.
If the code does not work
If the vendor rejects it when you try to redeem it, tell us straight away and we replace it or refund you in full. Contact us before the voucher’s own expiry date.
If you do not pass
A voucher covers one attempt. A retake needs a new voucher, and the vendor, not us, sets how long you must wait before sitting the exam again. Check the vendor’s retake policy before you book.
Changing your mind
Full refund for any reason as long as we have not yet sent the code, including if you realise you have ordered the wrong exam, which is easy to do when codes look alike. Once the code has been sent it cannot be refunded, because the code is the product and it is single-use. Refunds & delivery in full.

Where it leads
This is the expert-level exam in Microsoft's business-applications AI track and is part of the requirements for the Microsoft Certified: Agentic AI Business Solutions Architect certification, so it is positioned for architect and lead-consultant roles rather than entry-level ones. It pairs naturally with the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform associate certifications it requires. Microsoft offers a dedicated instructor-led course, AB-100T00 'Architecting agentic AI business solutions', whose stated audience is solution and enterprise architects, senior functional and technical consultants working with Dynamics 365, Microsoft 365, Power Platform or Azure AI services, AI and digital transformation leads, and application architects and technical leads. Microsoft notes that course is not a test-preparation course.
Sitting this exam in Sri Lanka
Microsoft states that the exam price is 'based on the country or region in which the exam is proctored', so what you pay depends on where you sit it rather than on a single global rate — and the voucher here is settled in rupees, so it does not have to go on a foreign-currency card. AB-100 is booked through Pearson VUE, and Microsoft's exam-experience guidance covers the online-proctored route, so a test-centre trip is not strictly necessary. The exam is offered in English only; Microsoft's study guide states that 'If the exam isn't available in your preferred language, you can request an additional 30 minutes to complete the exam.' In Sri Lanka this suits consultants who already deliver Dynamics 365 or Power Platform work and are now being asked for agentic designs — though note the prerequisite, which means most people will need an associate certification first.
Where these details come from
Every fact on this page was read off the vendor’s own documentation. Vendors change exam content, pricing and retirement dates without notice, so check these before you book.
Do I need another Microsoft certification before AB-100 counts?
Yes. AB-100 is an expert-level exam and Microsoft's page lists fifteen associate certifications that can be used toward the expert certification: MB-280, PL-200, MB-330, PL-400, MB-230, MB-310, MB-500, MB-800, MB-820, AI-300, AI-103, AB-620, AB-210, AB-410 and AB-250. A claim repeated on some exam-prep sites that AB-730 or AB-731 satisfies this is wrong — neither appears on Microsoft's list.
What score do I need to pass AB-100?
700 or greater on a scale of 1 to 1,000. Microsoft states that because this is a scaled score 'it may not equal 70% of the points' — the bar is set against the difficulty of the questions you were served. There is no penalty for guessing, and some unscored trial questions may appear without being identified, so answer every question.
How long do I get to sit it?
Microsoft does not publish a duration on the AB-100 exam page, so we will not quote one. Microsoft's general table gives associate and expert role-based exams without labs 100 minutes of exam time and 120 minutes of seat time, rising to 120 and 140 minutes for exams that may contain labs — and Microsoft deliberately does not publish which exams include labs. Microsoft's own instruction is that 'When you register for the exam, you will be provided with the exam time.' Five minutes of break time is built into the exam time, and the exam clock keeps running through any break.
Is the exam changing on 14 October 2026?
The English version is updated that day, but this is a content refresh rather than a retirement — Microsoft lists the retirement date as 'none'. The change log marks every changed objective as minor and every functional group as unchanged, and the domain weightings are the same before and after. Much of the movement is Microsoft renaming Azure AI Foundry to Microsoft Foundry and Foundry Tools. Localised versions are updated roughly eight weeks later, though AB-100 is currently offered in English only.
Can I use Microsoft Learn during the exam?
Yes. Microsoft allows access to the learn.microsoft.com domain during associate and expert role-based exams, excluding Q&A, practice assessments and your profile. No extra time is added and the timer keeps running — Microsoft says that if you lean on it for every question 'you won't be able to complete the exam in the time allotted, and that is by design.' Web browsing is restricted to the Microsoft Learn domain.
Does the certification expire?
Microsoft associate, expert and specialty certifications expire annually. Renewal is free and is done by passing a short, unproctored, open-book online assessment on Microsoft Learn during a six-month eligibility window, with as many attempts as you need before the expiry date. Once you pass, the certification is extended one year from the expiration date.
If I fail, how soon can I try again?
Microsoft's policy is that you can retake 24 hours after the first attempt. For subsequent retakes the waiting period varies, and each attempt needs its own voucher.
Where to go next
The step before and the step after this one, plus a comparable exam from another vendor.
