Exam 200-901 topic 1 question 105 discussion

FROM NETACAD What is a Webhook? A webhook is an HTTP callback, or an HTTP POST, to a specified URL that notifies your application when a particular activity or “event” has occurred in one of your resources on the platform. The concept is simple. Think of asking someone "tell me right away if X happens". That "someone" is the webhook provider, and you are the application. Webhooks enable applications to get real-time data, because they are triggered by particular activities or events. With webhooks, applications are more efficient because they no longer need to have a polling mechanism.

its C ,webhooks do implement a push model, but the primary benefit is receiving real-time data.

I vote for C, it makes sense based on the wording of the question

Webhooks use the push-model to enable applications to get real-time data. Look carefully at the wording. The question asks what webhooks enable applications to do, not how they function.

I think C , netacad says "Webhooks enable applications to get real-time data"

Simplifying the wording: Webhook enables the app to ( push or receive real time) . The clients should receive real time but the app pushes. Thus D.

D imho

It is D

it should be D

a webhook lets you skip the request step in the request/response cycle So A is correct as it avoids doing a request
