What is the issue with this APIView method?

class SampleView(APIView):
    def get(self, request):
        return Response('Hello World')

AAPIView does not support the get method

BThe method should be named 'post' instead of 'get'

CResponse should return a dictionary or list, not a plain string

DResponse must include a status code explicitly

Step-by-Step Solution

Step 1: Understand Response data types
DRF's Response expects data types like dict or list to serialize to JSON.
Step 2: Analyze the code
Returning a plain string without wrapping it in a dict or list can cause serialization issues.
Final Answer:
Response should return a dictionary or list, not a plain string -> Option C
Quick Check:
Response data must be serializable [OK]

Quick Trick: Always return dict or list in Response, not raw strings [OK]
