A
GET /dna/intent/api/v1/network-device/{id}
This would return a single object, not an array.
B
GET /dna/intent/api/v1/network-device
Why wrong: This is the correct endpoint for listing devices, but because the response is an array, Option A is correct. Actually this is the correct answer; wait adjust.
C
POST /dna/intent/api/v1/network-device
Why wrong: POST requests return a task or creation result, not an array of devices.
D
PUT /dna/intent/api/v1/network-device/{id}
Why wrong: PUT requests return the updated object, not an array.

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/network-device/{id}

The response is an array (list) of network devices, indicating a GET request to the collection endpoint. A GET request to the specific device endpoint would return a single object, not an array. POST and PUT do not return such arrays.

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

Common exam traps

Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword

Many certification questions include familiar terms but test a specific constraint. Read the exact wording before choosing an answer that is generally true but wrong for this case.

Detailed technical explanation

How to think about this question

This question should be treated as a scenario, not a definition check. Identify the problem, the constraint and the best action. Then compare each option against those facts.

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.
Use explanations to understand the rule behind the answer.

TExam Day Tips

Underline the problem statement mentally.
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 practitioner preparing for the 200-901 exam encounters this exact type of scenario on the job. The correct answer here is not the most general option — it is the best answer for the specific constraint described. Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option. Real exam questions reward reading the full scenario before eliminating options, because the constraint defines which answer fits.
