MuleSoft MCD-Level-1 Dumps

Correct answer is Nothing needs to be changed in the other APIs or their associated applications

This is the benefit of having separate interface layer. As there are no changes to interface , no changes are required on the API's which consumes this API in context

Logs would look like:

CloudHub Workers

Workers are dedicated instances of Mule runtime engine that run your integration applications on CloudHub. The memory capacity and processing power of a worker depends on how you configure it at the application level.

Worker sizes have different compute, memory, and storage capacities. You can scale workers vertically by selecting one of the available worker sizes:

Correct answer is Add required headers to RAML specification and redeploy new API proxy

MuleSoft Doc Ref :

Steps are as below :

Add the Required RAML Snippet

SLA-based rate limiting requires adding a RAML or OAS snippet to your API. This procedure demonstrates adding a RAML snippet.

Specify the client ID and secret as query parameters.

Add a section called traits: at the RAML root level to define query parameters:

traits:

- client-id-required:

queryParameters:

client_id:

type: string

client_secret:

type: string

Add the client-id-required trait to every method that requires these query parameters:

/users:

get:

is: [client-id-required]

description: Gets a list of JSONPlaceholder users.

Step 2 : Add the SLA Tier in API Manager

Step 3 : Apply the policy and redeploy

As can be seen in RAML, POST expects input in application/json format which eliminates two of the options as two options are in xml format.

Now out of the two remaining options, one has id field in request which is only mentioned for get response and not for POST request. Hence id field is not expected in POST request.

Hence correct answer is

{

"name": "GoerdiLa Forge",

"address": "1 Westland CA",

"customer_since": "2014-01-04",

"balance": "4829.29",

"bank_agend_id": "12556"

}

Correct answer is The API interfaces are specified at a granularity intended for developers to consume specific aspect of integration processes

Correct answer is as below. Attributes in the incoming xml payload are always accessed using @.Similarly *item is required as we have multiple items in the request

%dw 2.0

output application/csv

---

payload.sale.*item map ((value, index) -> {

index: index,

sale: value.@saleId,

itemName: value.desc,

itemPrice: (value.quantity) * (value.price),

item: value.@itemId

} )

Correct answer is A global element

Global error handlers are to be created in global element .

Quick note to remember here is Global error handlers come in to picture only when there are no error handlers specified as flow level.

Steps to create Global error handler

1) Click Global Elements to open Global Configuration Elements. Global Elements is located below the Studio canvas

2) In Global Configuration Elements, click Create to open the Choose Global Type dialog

Correct answer is [[5, 10, 15, 20], 5]

Key thing to note here is that any changes made to payload in for each loop are not available outside for each scope where as variable value updated in for each loop is visible out side for each loop too.

In this example , sequence can be described as follows

1) Payload is set to the value [5, 10, 15, 20]

2) Variable is set to the value of 1

3) For each loop is executed four times and in each loop payload value is updated to append "Req" and variable is count is increased by 1

4) Once control comes out of for each , payload changes made within for each are not visible. Hence payload at this point of time is equal to payload available before entering for each loop which was  [5, 10, 15, 20]. Similarly variable value updated in for each loop is also available outside hence variable value is 5 as it was updated in loop.

5) Hence correct answer is [[5, 10, 15, 20], 5]

For Each Scope

The For Each scope splits a payload into elements and processes them one by one through the components that you place in the scope. It is similar to a for-each/for loop code block in most programming languages and can process any collection, including lists and arrays. The collection can be any supported content type, such as application/json, application/java, or application/xml.

General considerations about the For Each scope:

By default, For Each tries to split the payload. If the payload is a simple Java collection, the For Each scope can split it without any configuration. The payload inside the For Each scope is each of the split elements. Attributes within the original message are ignored because they are related to the entire message.

For Each does not modify the current payload. The output payload is the same as the input.

For non-Java collections, such as XML or JSON, use a DataWeave expression to split data. Use the Collection field for this purpose.

For such questions always look for Syntax:

I call it "Wrap the Map"

trains:

{(

When mapping array elements (JSON or JAVA) to XML, wrap the map operations in {(..)}

-{ } are defining the object

-( ) are transforming each element in the array as a key/value pair

In this case as outbound call is made using HTTP: POST /child , all attributes will be replaced by this invocation. Hence query parameter will not be accessible at logger. Hence correct answer is option 2

Correct answer is ${training.host}

Correct answer is Validation modules Is Number operation.

Mule 4 does not use filters anymore. The functionality provided by filters in Mule 3 can be achieved by using the Validation Module.

Correct answer is 200.1234 as String {format: ".0#"} . Rest all options are not syntactically correct.

PUT replaces the original version of the resource, whereas the PATCH method supplies a set of instructions to modify the resource

Paths

The path of an HTTP listener can be static, which requires exact matches, or feature placeholders. Placeholders can be wildcards (*), which match against anything they are compared to, or parameters ({param}), which not only match against anything but also capture those values on a URI parameters map.

Take the following example paths for three listeners using a configuration that establishes api/v1 as the base path:

account/mulesoft/main-contact: only match the exact path request 

account/{accountId}/main-contact: matches all path requests structured similarly, such as  , and save salesforce as the value of accountId.

account/{accountId}/*: matches all path requests different from main-contact, such as  , and save mulesoft as the value of accountId.

Mule Ref Doc : 

Choice router finds the FIRST true condition, then distribute the event to the ONE matched route.

MuleSoft Doc Ref :

The Choice router dynamically routes messages through a flow according to a set of DataWeave expressions that evaluate message content. Each expression is associated with a different routing option. The effect is to add conditional processing to a flow, similar to an if/then/else code block in most programming languages.

Only one of the routes in the Choice router executes, meaning that the first expression that evaluates to true triggers that route’s execution and the others are not checked. If none of the expressions are true, then the default route executes.

You can define your own DataWeave functions using the fun declaration in the header of a DataWeave script. Sample is as below. ----------------------------------------

toUpper("hello")

MuleSoft Doc Ref :

Option 1 is the only correct choice due to two reasons. 1) Concatenation is always with ++ sign and not with + sign which makes option 2 and 3 wrong 2) hearders can be accessed with attributes. headers and not with only headers which makes option 4 incorrect

Correct answer is as below. In this case address will be stored in a variable. Hence payload will not be overwritten and will contain order details

{

orderkey: "payload.order",

addresskey: "vars.address"

}

Note that private flow has error scope defined as On Error Continue . So when error occurs in private flow , it is handled by this On Error Continue scope which sends success response back to main flow and does not throw back an error. So main continues normally and payload is set to Success - main flow.

Hence correct answer is Success - main flow

1) HTTP listener received request

2) The Flow Reference calls the child flow

3) The Is Number validator creates an Error Object because the payload isn’t an integer. Child Flow execution stops

#[error.description] = “payload is not a valid INTEGER value”

#[error.errorType] = VALIDATION:INVALID_NUMBER

4) The On Error Continue handles the errorThe payload is set to “Error – Sub Flow”

5) “Error – Sub Flow” is returned to the main flow as if the child flow was a success. The Set Payload is executed. The payload is reset to “Success – Finished Main Flow”

6) “Success – Main Flow” is returned to the requestor in the body of the HTTP request. HTTP Status Code: 200

As you can see, in the above example, because the error was caught by an On Error Continue scope in the child flow (RED in, GREEN out) when the Mule Message returns to the parent flow, the parent flow knows none-the-different that there was a failure because the on error continue returns a 200 success message. Note that because, to the mainFlow, the childFlow appeared to succeed, the processing of mainFlow resumed after the flow reference.

Mule Ref Doc : Variables in Mule Apps | MuleSoft Documentation

The List operation returns an array of messages in which: Each message holds the file’s content in its payload. The file’s attributes section carries the file’s metadata (such as name, creation time, and size). The payload is empty if the element is a folder.

This question validates you knowledge on Batch Processing. Before we analyze the question , lets revise a bit about batch filters.

Batch Filters

You can apply one or more filters as attributes to any number of batch steps.Imagine a batch job whose first batch step checks if a Salesforce contact exists for a record, and a second batch step that updates each existing Salesforce contact with new information. You can apply a filter to the second batch step to ensure it only processes records that didn’t fail during the first batch step.By having batch steps accept only some records for processing, you streamline the batch job so the Mule runtime engine can focus only on the relevant data for a particular batch step.

A batch step uses two attributes to filter records:

acceptExpression

acceptPolicy

Each batch step can accept one acceptExpression and one acceptPolicy attributes to filter records.

Use the acceptExpression attribute to process only records that evaluate to true; if the record evaluates to false, the batch step skips the record and sends it to the next one. In other words, the records with an accept expression that resolves to false are the ones that Mule filters out.

The example below filters out all records where the age is less than 21; the batch step does not process those records.

• ...

Mule Ref Doc : Refining Batch Steps Processing | MuleSoft Documentation

As we are clear with above concepts , now lets understand this solution step by step.

1) Batch Step (Less than 50)

Accept expression for this batch step is less than 50. Hence elements which will go in this batch step are amount value 40 and 2. Hence output of logger in first batch step is

{amount=140}

{amount=102}

2) Batch Step (Greater than 20)

Accept condition for this batch step is greater than 20. Note that input amount values for this batch step are 100 , 140 and 102 (last two values have been updated in batch step less than 50)

As all values satisfy this condition out put of second logger is

{step2amount=100}

{step2amount=140}

{step2amount=102}

Hence correct answer to this question is

• {amount=140}
• {amount=102}
• {step2amount=100}
• {step2amount=140}
• {step2amount=102}

2) Batch Step (Greater than 20)

Accept condition for this batch step is greater than 20. Note that input amount values for this batch step are 100 , 140 and 102 (last two values have been updated in batch step less than 50)

As all values satisfy this condition out put of second logger is

{step2amount=100}

{step2amount=140}

{step2amount=102}

Hence correct answer to this question is

{amount=140}

{amount=102}

{step2amount=100}

{step2amount=140}

{step2amount=102}

Flow Reference Component

Flow Reference routes the Mule event to another flow or subflow, executes all processors in the referenced flow, and then routes the event back within the same Mule application. The following diagram shows the order of processing when one flow references another:

When the main flow is triggered, the Mule event travels through and executes the flow until the event reaches the Flow Reference. The event then travels through and executes the referenced flow from beginning to end, and then returns to the main flow.

This process enables you to treat the entire referenced flow like a single component in your current flow.

Mule Ref Doc : 

Correct answer is

• payload
• quantity var
• color query param

Correct answer is Merges elements of two lists (arrays) into a single list

MuleSoft Doc Reference :

The APIkit Router is a key message processor that validates requests against the provided definition, enriches messages (for example by adding default values to the messages) and routes requests to a particular flow. Also, the Router raises errors messages if errors occurs while routing, validating or processing the user request.

Correct answer is API manager

As dependency is not present in Mulesoft Maven repository, we need to install the dependency on computer's local Maven repository.

Returns an array that is the result of applying a transformation function (lambda) to each of the elements.

MuleSoft Doc Ref :

The map operator is a function in Dataweave which iterates over the items in an array and outputs them into a new array. It basically accepts input as a list of items in an array and manipulates the items in the array in order to form a new array as an output.

Correct answer is Mule runtime

DataWeave is the MuleSoft expression language for accessing and transforming data that travels through a Mule app. DataWeave is tightly integrated with the Mule runtime engine, which runs the scripts and expressions in your Mule app.

Mule Doc Reference :

In this case both the flows can start without any error and requests can be received on both ports. Flow names httpListener1 can call other flow using HTTP request without any issues.

Hence correct answer is

The mule application start successfully

Web client requests can  be received at URI on port 2222 and on port 3333.

Lets check why other options are incorrect

1) The mule application fails to start. There is URL path conflict because both HTTP Listeners are configured with same path  ---- This is incorrect as port value is different in both listeners

2) The mule application start successfully. Web client requests can only be received at URI on port 2222 but not on port 3333  --- This is incorrect as there is no reason for not receiving requests on port 3333

3) The mule application fails to start because of the port binding conflict as HTTP request also use same port i.e. 3333 --- Port binding conflict will not happen in this case. It would have if both listener configurations would have been on same port . But that is not the case here.

Mule Ref Doc : HTTP Listener Reference - Mule 4 | MuleSoft Documentation

Option 3 is the only corect answer as it concatenates payload with String.

Below option wont work.

#["The payload is " ++ payload]

Concatenation function expects both arguments to be string. As the question says payload is json object , this will throw error while running it. You can try this in Anypoint Studio and you will get the same result which I mentioned.

hence correct answer is

The payload is: #[payload]

Correct answer is Request access to the API in Anypoint Exchange. This way we can get clientId and Client secret which we can use to access the API
