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

The API endpoint must be reachable from the search service

Correct options are A, D, and E. Custom skills must have an API endpoint reachable from the search service (public or via private endpoint) [A]. They must handle payloads up to 16 MB due to data size limits [D]. They must complete within 230 seconds (the default timeout) [E]. Option B is incorrect because custom skills can accept multiple inputs and produce multiple outputs. Option C is incorrect because custom skills can be written in any language that supports JSON.
