What represents the unique identifier of an ACI object?

A universal resource identifier (URI) is a general term for identifying a resource, but in ACI, the specific identifier for an object within the MIT is its distinguished name (DN).

An application programming interface (API) is a set of rules and protocols for building and interacting with software, not a unique identifier for an ACI object.

The management information tree (MIT) is the hierarchical database containing all ACI objects, but it is the structure itself, not the unique identifier for an individual object.

Every object in the ACI Management Information Tree (MIT) has a unique distinguished name (DN) which serves as its absolute identifier. The DN provides the full path to an object from the root of the MIT, clearly specifying its position and unique identity within the ACI fabric.
