Question

Drag and drop the code snippets from the bottom onto the blanks in the code to create a Cisco Webex CreateMeeting API request. Not all options are used.

Explanation

The question appears to be incomplete - the Options field is empty ({}), meaning no code snippets were included. Without the actual drag-and-drop options, I can't tell you exactly which blanks map to which choices.

That said, here's a thorough explanation of what a Cisco Webex CreateMeeting API request looks like so you can reason through any version of this question:


Overall Goal

You're constructing an HTTP POST request to the Webex REST API to programmatically create a meeting. This is the correct approach because Webex exposes a RESTful interface - you authenticate with a token, send a structured JSON payload, and the API returns a meeting object.


Anatomy of the Request

1. HTTP Method: POST

POST is used to create a new resource. GET retrieves, PUT/PATCH update, DELETE removes. Using GET here would fail - the server expects POST to create a meeting.

2. Endpoint URL

https://webexapis.com/v1/meetings

This is the Webex Meetings API base URL. Wrong URL = 404 Not Found.

3. Authorization Header

Authorization: Bearer <your_access_token>

Webex uses OAuth 2.0 Bearer tokens. Without this header, the server returns 401 Unauthorized. The keyword Bearer (not Token, not Basic) is required by the Webex API spec.

4. Content-Type Header

Content-Type: application/json

Tells the server the body format. Omitting this can cause the server to reject or misparse the payload.

5. JSON Body (required fields)

{
  "title": "My Meeting",
  "start": "2026-05-22T10:00:00Z",
  "end": "2026-05-22T11:00:00Z",
  "timezone": "UTC"
}
  • title - human-readable meeting name
  • start / end - ISO 8601 timestamps; swapping them or omitting causes a 400 Bad Request
  • timezone - without this, times may be misinterpreted

What Goes Wrong If Steps Are Skipped

Skipped StepResult
No Authorization header401 Unauthorized
Wrong HTTP method (e.g. GET)405 Method Not Allowed
Missing Content-TypeBody may be ignored or misread
Missing start/end400 Bad Request - required fields
Wrong URL404 Not Found

Memory Tip

Think of building the request like mailing a package:

  • POST = you're sending (not asking)
  • URL = the address
  • Authorization = your ID at the door
  • Content-Type = "this is a JSON envelope"
  • Body = the actual package contents

If you can share the actual code snippet options from the question, I can map them precisely to the blanks.
