200-301 Question 504
Select 3You are working with a network automation script that retrieves JSON data from a RESTful API. Below is a snippet of the JSON response:
{ "device": { "hostname": "Router1", "interfaces": [ { "name": "GigabitEthernet0/0", "status": "up", "ip_address": "192.168.1.1" }, { "name": "GigabitEthernet0/1", "status": "down", "ip_address": "192.168.1.2" } ] } }
Which of the following statements correctly identifies a component or structure of this JSON data?
- A
"device" is an object.
- B
"interfaces" is an array.
- C
"name" is a key within the "interfaces" array.
- D
"192.168.1.1" is a key within the "interfaces" array.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, C
Explanation
In JSON, data is structured using objects, arrays, keys, and values. Objects are enclosed in curly braces {}, arrays in square brackets [], and key-value pairs are used to represent data relationships. Understanding these components is crucial for interpreting and working with JSON data.
- A. Correct.
"device" is an object because it contains key-value pairs enclosed in curly braces {}.
- B. Correct.
"interfaces" is an array because it is enclosed in square brackets [] and contains multiple objects.
- C. Correct.
"name" is a key within the "interfaces" array, as it is defined inside each object in the array.
- D. Incorrect.
"192.168.1.1" is not a key but a value associated with the "ip_address" key within the objects in the "interfaces" array.
