nse7_efw-72 Exam - Question 19


Which two statements about metadata variables are true? (Choose two.)

Show Answer
Correct Answer: AC

The true statements about metadata variables are that the metadata format is $<metadata_variable_name> and they can be used as variables in scripts. Metadata variables often use a specific syntax format, which in this case is described correctly. Additionally, metadata variables are designed to be utilized within scripts to insert dynamic values, making these two statements accurate.

As it is a "choose two" solution, the most correct second answer is A, even though the format isn't entirely correct. A metafield is called upon in a CLI script with $(your_metafield_name), if it's jinja2 it's called upon with {{your_metafield_name}}. C is definitely correct. The format for variables and usage is explained in page 158 in the Study Guide (jinja2 is not described though, only as a side note in comparison with TCL).
