MuleSoft Certified Developer – Level 1 — Question 90

What does the Mule runtime use to enforce policies and limit access to APIs?

Answer options

• A. API Manager
• B. The proxy created by API Manager
• C. The Mule runtime's embedded API Gateway
• D. Anypoint Access Control

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as the Mule runtime's embedded API Gateway is specifically designed to enforce policies and manage access to APIs. Option A, API Manager, is used for managing APIs but does not directly enforce policies. Option B refers to a proxy, which does not limit access by itself. Option D, Anypoint Access Control, is related to overall access management but is not the primary enforcement tool within the Mule runtime.
