MuleSoft Certified Integration Architect – Level 1 — Question 59

A team would like to create a project skeleton that developers can use as a starting point when creating API implementations with Anypoint Studio. This skeleton should help drive consistent use of best practices within the team.
What type of Anypoint Exchange artifact(s) should be added to Anypoint Exchange to publish the project skeleton?

Answer options

• A. A RAML archetype and reusable trait definitions to be reused across API implementations
• B. A custom asset with the default API implementation
• C. An example of an API implementation following best practices
• D. A Mule application template with the key components and minimal integration logic

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because a Mule application template provides the essential components and structure needed for developers to start their projects effectively. Options A, B, and C, while potentially useful, do not offer the same comprehensive starting point as a template, which is crucial for establishing consistency in API development.
