medium📝 Debug Q6 of 15
AWS - API Gateway
You created a usage plan but forgot to associate any API stages with it. What will be the effect on API key usage?
AAPI keys can access all API stages by default
BAPI keys bypass usage plan limits
CAPI Gateway automatically associates all stages
DAPI keys linked to the usage plan cannot access any API stages
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:

  1. Step 1: Understand usage plan and stage association

    Usage plans must be linked to API stages to apply limits on those stages.

  2. Step 2: Analyze missing stage association

    Without stage association, usage plan limits do not apply, and keys cannot access APIs via that plan.

  3. Final Answer:

    API keys linked to the usage plan cannot access any API stages -> Option D

  4. Quick Check:

    Missing stage association = No API access [OK]
Quick Trick: Usage plans need API stages linked to enforce limits [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Assuming keys access all stages without association
  • Thinking API Gateway auto-links stages
  • Believing keys bypass limits without stages
