Labs are not available for AZ-500
I think mostly because it’s a high-level, conceptual exam that’s multiple choice. So there isnt’ that much scope for practical labs as there might be for a subject that’s more concrete. Would they help? Perhaps. But you’d still have the boil that all down to multiple choice questions for purposes of the exam.
AZ-104 has labs, even though it is an MCQ exam. The practical labs really helped me learn faster and more effectively. I started with AZ-104 and expected AZ-500 to also include labs since I am preparing for cloud security, so it’s quite disappointing that it doesn’t offer the same hands-on experience.
