200-901 Question #674: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

In which way do webhooks notify a client about server or application changes by default?

Options

• AAsynchronously
• BPeriodically
• CIn real time
• DSynchronously

Explanation

Webhooks push event notifications to a client in real time the moment a triggering event occurs on the server, with no polling required.

Common mistakes.

• A. Asynchronous describes a processing model but not the timing characteristic of webhooks - the notification is sent immediately at the time of the event, not with arbitrary or scheduled delay.
• B. Periodic notification describes polling, where the client checks for updates on a fixed schedule, which is the opposite of the server-initiated webhook model.
• D. Synchronous means the client blocks waiting for a response within the same connection - webhooks are outbound server-initiated pushes, not responses within a synchronous request cycle.
