Which statement is correct when multiple DataScripts of the same event type are configured for the Virtual Service?

Question

Options

• AOnly the first DataScript will be executed.
• BThe first DataScript on the list will execute first.
• CThe last DataScript will be processed.
• DThe DataScript order will have no impact on the processing of the traffic.

• B
  93% (39)
• C
  5% (2)
• D
  2% (1)

Explanation

Option B is correct because when multiple DataScripts of the same event type are assigned to a Virtual Service, they execute sequentially in the order they appear in the list - the first DataScript runs first, then the second, and so on. This ordered execution matters because earlier scripts can modify request/response data that later scripts then act upon.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A is wrong because all configured DataScripts execute, not just the first one.
• C is wrong because the last DataScript does not get priority - order goes top-down, not bottom-up.
• D is wrong because order absolutely matters; if Script 1 rewrites a header that Script 2 reads, swapping their positions changes behavior entirely.

Memory tip: Think of DataScripts like a numbered checklist - the system works through them from top (#1) to bottom in strict order. "First on the list = first to run" maps directly to answer B.
