200-901 Cisco Platforms and Development Practice Question
Which three components are required to set up a Webex webhook for message creation events? (Choose three.)
⚠ Common exam trap
Cisco often tests the distinction between required fields (resource, event, target URL) and optional filters (like roomId), leading candidates to incorrectly select optional parameters as mandatory components.
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
✓
Resource type (e.g., "messages")
A is correct because every Webex webhook must specify a resource type to define which API resource triggers the webhook. For message creation events, the resource type must be "messages" to indicate that the webhook listens for changes to message resources. Without this, the webhook cannot know which data model to monitor.
