Within the client security policy, the credential extraction method is set to Form.
Which statement is a requirement in this case?
In IBM API Connect, when the credential extraction method is set to Form in the client security policy, it means that the client credentials (such as the client ID and secret) must be supplied in a specific format using a POST request. Specifically, the credentials are included in the body of the request in a URL-encoded form. This is typical in OAuth 2.0 workflows where client credentials need to be extracted from a form-based submission, often used in situations involving login or token exchanges.
'Client id' and 'secret' are provided in the request body through form fields, rather than being passed in the URL or headers.
This method adheres to secure practices where sensitive credentials are sent via POST to avoid exposing them in the URL.
Therefore, the correct statement is that client ID and secret must be supplied via a POST request when using the Form credential extraction method.

How can a user be added that was previously removed from a Provider organization that uses a Local User Registry (LUR)?
To add a user that was previously removed from a Provider organization that uses a Local User Registry (LUR), the user must re-register using the invitation link sent by the Provider organization owner or a user with the appropriate role. This ensures that the user is added back to the organization with the correct permissions and settings.

What can be done to make sure all errors are caught within an assembly?
To ensure that all errors are caught within an assembly in API Connect, you can add a default catch policy to the assembly. This catch policy will capture any errors that are not handled by other policies in the assembly, providing a centralized location for error handling and logging.

What is the effect of enabled Spaces for the management of Consumer (applications, subscriptions, etc.)?
When Spaces are enabled in API Connect, Consumers, applications, subscriptions approvals, and analytics are now specific per Space. This means that each Space becomes an isolated environment for managing and controlling API usage within that specific context.
