MCSD Web Applications is Inactive

Hello,

In 2013 I got the MCSD Web Applications. When I check at my transcript this MCSD is marked as inactive and my MCSA is converted into a Charter member :

I guess my MCSD expired and I have something to do like retaking one of my exams to get the new MCSD App Builder certification. This is the list of all the exams I succeeded :

Here are the exams needed for the MCSA Web Applications :

and here for the MCSD App Builder :

According to the MCSD App Builder page, I am already MCSA Web Applications (70-480 + 70-486) AND I already got an exam from the list (70-487). Thus I should still be MCSD App Builder.

This is what is shown on my Dashboard (and exams unrelated to the MCSD App Builder and some are retired):

I tried to register to an exam I already got (e.g. 70-487) in order to maybe reactivate my MCSD but I cannot:

Today I don't know if I am an MCSD App Builder and if my profile will be counted for my company as an MCSD App Builder for its Gold Partnership (which my MCSD certification is vital for us).

Please advice me on what should I do to reactivate my MCSD App Builder.

My MCID: (removed)

Hi GillesLautrou,

 

I understand the certification requirements are quite confusing, but this is a way for Microsoft to make sure that the candidates are are equipped with the proper skills to get certified.

 

Furthermore, for the meantime Exam 70-357 as your elective is the only way that you can re-earn MCSD App Builder. You may also refer to the image given below:
