MCPA - Level 1 Exam - Question 31


An API experiences a high rate of client requests (TPS) with small message payloads.

How can usage limits be imposed on the API based on the type of client application?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: D

To impose usage limits on an API based on the type of client application, a rate limiting policy and a client ID enforcement policy configured by client application type are effective. This approach ensures that requests are regulated according to the unique identifier tied to the type of client, providing precise control over request rates and preventing misuse.
