Exam Vault Associate 002 topic 1 question 39 discussion

This statement is partially correct. The command is indeed using the AppRole authentication method to log in with a specified role ID and secret ID. However, it’s not configuring the AppRole auth method; it’s using it to authenticate and obtain a token. Configuration of AppRole involves setting up roles and associated policies, which is not what this command is doing. So, based on the information provided, the accurate description of the command and its output is not fully captured by any of the listed statements. The closest accurate statement is D, but it should be noted that the command is for authentication, not configuration.

A is more correct

auth/my-path/login API endpoint is used for authentication, but not configuring custom/static role_id/secret_id, so the right answer here should be A, since default policy is missing from the output. Answer A

Correct statement as per https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault/docs/auth/approle#authentication and https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault/docs/auth/approle#credentials-constraints
