Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
GET /v1/people/me
Why this is correct
GET /v1/people/me returns the authenticated user's own profile, resolving identity directly from the bearer token rather than requiring a person ID. This satisfies the stem's requirement to retrieve the current user's details without first querying another endpoint to discover their identifier.
- ✗
GET /v1/rooms?me=true
Why it's wrong here
The rooms endpoint returns room objects, and the me query parameter filters rooms the authenticated user belongs to, not the user's own profile. It would be correct for listing a user's meeting rooms, not retrieving their details.
- ✗
POST /v1/people
Why it's wrong here
POST /v1/people creates a new person record, so it cannot return the authenticated user's details. It is tempting because POST to a collection endpoint is the standard way to create resources, and would be correct if the task were provisioning a new Webex user rather than reading the current one.
- ✗
GET /v1/people?email=current@user.com
Why it's wrong here
The people endpoint lists people, and email filters by a specific address; current@user.com is a placeholder, not a resolvable value, so no user is returned. It would be correct if you already knew the target user's actual email address.
