does my prediction dataset need ALL features?

[FranksT]

I have a question around the prediction dataset. If my deployed model only used the top 10 features (for example), do I still need to make sure all other features (other than the top 10) are included in the prediction set?

thank you

No you do not.  If you provide them, the model scoring code will ignore them.  You may wish to provide a surrogate id as a passthroughColumn however.  For example, a customer id feature.
