What must be true for network paths when a template has a required network parameter?

• A. The network path must be configured for all columns.
• B. Only the first column uses the path.
• C. You can disable the path for all columns.
• D. The network path must be available for all columns when a required parameter exists.

Answer: (D)

When a template has a required network parameter, every column that uses that parameter must have a network path available. This ensures the parameter can be resolved everywhere it’s referenced; if any column lacks a path, the template cannot function because the required information isn’t accessible in that context. So the network path must be available for all columns whenever a required parameter exists.

The other ideas don’t fit because they either ignore the conditional nature of the requirement (configuring there for all columns even when not needed) or imply you can leave some columns without a path or disable it entirely, which would break the requirement by leaving some contexts without a usable path.
