200-901 Cisco Platforms and Development Practice Question

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.

An organization uses Cisco DNA Center and wants to use its Intent API to retrieve the health score of all wireless clients. Which API endpoint and method should be used?

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 /dna/intent/api/v1/client-health

Option C is correct because the Intent API for retrieving client health scores uses the GET HTTP method on the `/dna/intent/api/v1/client-health` endpoint. This endpoint returns the aggregated health data for all wireless clients, aligning with the read-only nature of the operation and the Intent API's resource-oriented design.

Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • PUT /dna/intent/api/v1/client-health

    Why it's wrong here

    PUT is for updates, not retrieval.

  • GET /api/v1/health

    Why it's wrong here

    This is not a valid DNA Center endpoint for client health.

  • GET /dna/intent/api/v1/client-health

    Why this is correct

    This endpoint returns client health information.

    Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.

  • POST /dna/intent/api/v1/client-detail

    Why it's wrong here

    POST is not used for retrieval, and client-detail is for specific client details.

Common exam traps

Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword

Cisco often tests the distinction between Intent API endpoints and the correct HTTP verb for read operations, trapping candidates who confuse the client-health endpoint with the client-detail endpoint or who incorrectly assume that POST or PUT can be used for data retrieval.

Detailed technical explanation

How to think about this question

The Intent API follows RESTful principles where GET requests are used for safe, idempotent data retrieval. The `/dna/intent/api/v1/client-health` endpoint internally queries the Cisco DNA Center's assurance engine, which aggregates telemetry from wireless controllers and access points to compute a composite health score (0–100) based on metrics like signal strength, packet loss, and connection latency. In a real-world scenario, a network operations dashboard would poll this endpoint periodically to monitor overall wireless health without modifying any state.

KKey Concepts to Remember

  • Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
  • Find the constraint that changes the correct option.
  • Eliminate answers that are true in general but not in this case.

TExam Day Tips

  • Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
  • Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.

Key takeaway

Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

Real-world example

How this comes up in practice

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.
