Which of the following is the correct way to specify a GET operation for the path /pets in OpenAPI YAML?

Apaths:\n get:\n /pets:\n summary: List all pets

Bget:\n paths:\n /pets:\n summary: List all pets

Cpaths:\n /pets:\n get:\n summary: List all pets

Dpaths:\n /pets:\n method: GET\n summary: List all pets

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Review OpenAPI YAML structure for operations
The correct structure places the path under paths, then the HTTP method (like get) as a nested key, followed by operation details.
Step 2: Check each option's syntax
paths:\n /pets:\n get:\n summary: List all pets correctly nests get under /pets inside paths. Others misplace keys or use invalid keywords like method.
Final Answer:
paths:\n /pets:\n get:\n summary: List all pets -> Option C
Quick Check:
Correct YAML nesting = paths:\n /pets:\n get:\n summary: List all pets [OK]

Quick Trick: HTTP methods go under paths, not above [OK]
