Exam 350-501 topic 1 question 370 discussion

Sensor Path The sensor path describes a YANG path or a subset of data definitions in a YANG model with a container. In a YANG model, the sensor path can be specified to end at any level in the container hierarchy. An MDT-capable device, such as a router, associates the sensor path to the nearest container path in the model. The router encodes and streams the container path within a single telemetry message. A receiver receives data about all the containers and leaf nodes at and below this container path. Subscription A subscription binds one or more sensor paths and destinations. An MDT-capable device streams data for each sensor path at the configured frequency (cadence-based streaming) or when the sensor-path content changes (event-based streaming) to the destination. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/optical/ncs1001/telemetry/guide/b-telemetry-cg-ncs1000/core-components-model-driven-telemetry-streaming.html#id_36300

The sensor path is where you configure what you want to send. This blog isn't from Cisco, but it was written by a former Cisco employee while he worked there. He describes the Sensor Path with the exact wording from this question. https://xrdocs.io/telemetry/tutorials/2017-10-25-ncs1002-telemetry-deep-dive/
