Rest API - Error Handling

A developer sends this validation error response:

{"errors": {"email": "Invalid format", "email": "Required field"}}

BThe error messages are too long

CThe JSON is missing a root object

DThe HTTP status code is incorrect

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Identify duplicate keys in JSON
The 'email' key appears twice, which is invalid in JSON objects.
Step 2: Understand JSON behavior with duplicates
Only the last 'email' key value will be kept, so one error is lost.
Final Answer:
Duplicate keys cause only one error to appear -> Option A
Quick Check:
Duplicate JSON keys overwrite previous values [OK]

Quick Trick: JSON keys must be unique; duplicates overwrite [OK]
