Exam 200-901 topic 1 question 298 discussion

A is correct

The option A is incorrect because it misrepresents the typical authentication methods used by RPC and REST APIs. In reality: >>RPC APIs can indeed use various authentication methods, including HTTP headers, tokens, or other mechanisms, similar to REST APIs. >>REST APIs commonly use HTTP headers for authentication, but they can also utilize other authentication methods such as tokens, API keys, or OAuth. Therefore, while there may be some differences in how authentication is implemented between RPC and REST APIs, the statement in option A is not a definitive distinction between the two. So the correct option is C

RPC (Remote Procedure Call) APIs are procedure-focused, meaning that they are designed to expose a specific function or set of functions to be called over a network. The interface of an RPC API is focused on the procedures that can be called, and the input and output parameters of those procedures. On the other hand, REST (Representational State Transfer) APIs are resource-focused, meaning that they are designed to expose a set of resources that can be manipulated using a fixed set of operations (such as create, read, update, delete). The interface of a REST API is focused on the resources that are available, and the operations that can be performed on those resources.

can you provide where it talks about this in the book?
