200-901 Cisco Platforms and Development Practice Question
A developer needs to retrieve the list of all networks in a specific Cisco Meraki organization. The developer has the organization ID and a valid API key. Which HTTP method and endpoint should be used?
⚠ Common exam trap
The trap here is omitting the organization ID or using the singular form of the resource name, which leads to a 404 error.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
GET /api/v1/organizations/{organizationId}/networks
To list networks in a Meraki organization, the developer must use GET /api/v1/organizations/{organizationId}/networks. The organization ID is required in the path, and the API key authenticates the request. The response contains an array of network objects. Other methods like POST are for creating networks, and incorrect paths will fail.
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 /api/v1/organizations/{organizationId}/network
Why it's wrong here
The resource name is 'networks' (plural), not 'network'. Using the singular form results in a 404 Not Found. The Meraki API uses plural nouns for collection endpoints. The developer must use the exact documented path, which is /networks. This is a common mistake when guessing endpoint names.
- ✗
GET /api/v1/networks
Why it's wrong here
This endpoint does not exist in the Meraki API. Networks are always scoped to an organization, so the organization ID must be part of the URL. Without it, the API cannot determine which organization's networks to return. The developer would receive a 404 Not Found. The correct path includes the organization ID.
- ✗
POST /api/v1/organizations/{organizationId}/networks
Why it's wrong here
POST to this endpoint creates a new network within the organization. It does not retrieve the list of existing networks. The developer needs a read operation, so GET is required. Using POST would either create an unintended network or fail if the required body parameters are missing. This is not the correct method for listing networks.
- ✓
GET /api/v1/organizations/{organizationId}/networks
Why this is correct
This endpoint returns the list of networks within the specified organization. The organization ID is included in the path, and the API key is passed in the X-Cisco-Meraki-API-Key header. The response is a JSON array of network objects. This is the correct way to retrieve networks for an organization.
