200-901 Practice Question: A developer is working with the Cisco SD-WAN…

A developer is working with the Cisco SD-WAN vManage API to monitor overlay tunnels. They need to retrieve a list of all devices with their site IDs and IP addresses. Which API endpoint is most appropriate?

⚠ Common exam trap

Cisco often tests the distinction between device inventory endpoints and monitoring/overlay-specific endpoints, leading candidates to choose 'monitor' or 'overlay' when they only need basic device information.

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

GET /dataservice/device

The GET /dataservice/device endpoint returns a list of all devices managed by the Cisco SD-WAN vManage, including their site IDs and IP addresses. This is the correct endpoint for retrieving device inventory details, as it provides the necessary fields like 'deviceId', 'system-ip', and 'site-id' in the response.
