Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B
Explanation
To integrate a third-party application for custom analytics, Cisco DNA Center provides Intent APIs to retrieve network-related data and Event Notifications APIs to subscribe to network events. These APIs enable external systems to interact with and analyze data from Cisco DNA Center, making them the most relevant choices for this use case.
- A. Correct.
Intent APIs are designed to retrieve and manipulate network management data, such as network device information, which is useful for custom analytics.
- B. Correct.
Event Notifications APIs allow applications to subscribe to network events in real-time, enabling integration with third-party analytics tools.
- C. Incorrect.
Telemetry APIs are not a concept within Cisco DNA Center APIs. Telemetry data in Cisco solutions is typically associated with other platforms like Cisco vManage.
- D. Incorrect.
Configuration APIs are used to apply templates and configurations to devices but are not directly related to integrating third-party analytics tools.
- E. Incorrect.
Platform APIs are used for managing Cisco DNA Center itself, such as software updates, and are not relevant to this scenario.
