The Dynamics 365 Customer Insights (Data) Specialty credential, commonly associated with exam MB-260, validates that a professional can stand up and operate the data side of Customer Insights: connecting source systems, shaping and deduplicating records into unified customer profiles, enriching them, building segments, and then configuring measures, predictions, and exports that downstream systems consume. It suits data engineers, CRM and marketing-operations consultants, and analytics specialists who own the pipelines and configuration behind a customer data platform rather than the campaign creative on top of it. The MB-260 case studies are 5 cases and about 3,488 words.
