Developing Applications and Automating Workflows Using Cisco Platforms (DEVASC) — Question 300

An engineer needs to collect information about 20,000 Bluetooth clients using the Cisco Meraki API. The API returns only 1,000 results. One of the HTTP response headers has the data:

Link: https://api.meraki.com.info/api/v0/networks/ABC/bluetoothClients?perPage=1000&startingAfter=1000>;rel=“next”

Which RFC is implemented by the API to apply the restriction?

Answer options

• A. RFC 5988 – Web Linking
• B. RFC 5890 – Response Constraints
• C. RFC 5005 – Feed Paging and Archiving
• D. RFC 5446 – Content Limits

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, RFC 5988 – Web Linking, which is relevant for indicating relationships between resources, such as pagination in API responses. The other RFCs listed do not address the specific mechanism of linking to additional pages of results, making them inappropriate in this context.
