Explanation

Note: This question asks for two answers - a GET request URL and a dictionary update. Only one correct answer (B) is listed here, so the second answer (most likely C) appears to be omitted from what you've shared.

Why B is correct (GET request): Option B properly constructs the Intersight REST API URL using OData query parameters - $select to specify which fields to return (including DeviceMoid, Model, and AssetTag) and $filter to narrow results to the server with AssetTag eq 'DMZ-R-L2-ADJM', which is the required syntax for filtering Intersight API queries.

Why A is wrong: A appears structurally similar but has an unclosed string literal on the final line (missing closing "), making it a Python syntax error that would crash before the request is ever made.

Why C is the likely second correct answer: The firmware body's Server key needs to be populated with the server's DeviceMoid (the Managed Object ID - Intersight's unique object reference), retrieved via json.loads(RESPONSE.text)['Results'][0]['DeviceMoid'].

Why D and E are wrong: D incorrectly uses AssetTag as the server reference - the Intersight API expects an MoRef (object reference), not a human-readable tag. E uses the correct key path (firmware_json_body['Server']), but looks for a nonexistent 'Server' key in the API response rather than 'DeviceMoid'.

Memory tip: Think DeviceMoid = Database ID for Intersight objects - any cross-reference between resources (like linking a server to a firmware job) always uses DeviceMoid, not display fields like AssetTag or Model.
