This 200-901 practice question tests your understanding of cisco platforms and development. Read the scenario carefully and evaluate each option against the stated constraints before committing to an answer. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.
A developer is using Cisco Meraki API to retrieve a list of networks. What is the correct HTTP method and endpoint path for listing networks in an organization?
DELETE /organizations/{orgId}/networks
Why wrong: DELETE is used to remove a network.
POST /organizations/{orgId}/networks
Why wrong: POST is used to create a new network, not list.
PUT /organizations/{orgId}/networks
Why wrong: PUT is used to update an existing network.
GET /organizations/{orgId}/networks
Correct HTTP method and endpoint for listing networks.
Answer choices
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
GET /organizations/{orgId}/networks
Option D is correct because the HTTP GET method is used to retrieve or list resources, and the endpoint /organizations/{orgId}/networks is the standard Meraki API path for fetching all networks within a specified organization. This follows RESTful conventions where GET requests are idempotent and safe for data retrieval.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Answer analysis
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
DELETE /organizations/{orgId}/networks
Why it's wrong here
DELETE is used to remove a network.
POST /organizations/{orgId}/networks
Why it's wrong here
POST is used to create a new network, not list.
PUT /organizations/{orgId}/networks
Why it's wrong here
PUT is used to update an existing network.
GET /organizations/{orgId}/networks
Why this is correct
Correct HTTP method and endpoint for listing networks.

Common exam traps
Cisco often tests the fundamental RESTful mapping of HTTP methods to CRUD operations, and the trap here is confusing the GET method with POST or PUT because candidates may think 'listing' requires sending data in the request body, when in fact GET is the correct method for read-only retrieval.
Detailed technical explanation
The Meraki API is RESTful and uses standard HTTP methods: GET for read operations, POST for create, PUT for update, and DELETE for delete. The endpoint /organizations/{orgId}/networks returns a JSON array of network objects, each containing fields like id, name, type, and tags. A subtle behavior is that the Meraki API enforces rate limiting (typically 5 requests per second per API key), so developers must handle pagination via the 'perPage' and 'startingAfter' query parameters when listing large numbers of networks.
Key takeaway
Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Real-world example
A small business has 20 workstations on the 192.168.1.0/24 network and one public IP from its ISP. The router uses PAT (NAT overload) so all 20 devices share one public address using different source ports. NAT questions test whether you understand the four address terms and which direction each translation applies.
