Master Microservices with Spring Boot and Spring Cloud - Step 14 – Implementing DELETE Method to Delete a User Resource

The video tutorial explains how to implement a delete method in a service. It covers using an iterator to delete a user by ID from a static arraylist, creating a delete resource, and handling HTTP responses for delete operations. The tutorial demonstrates executing delete requests and verifying their success or failure, adhering to HTTP conventions.

What is the primary reason for using an iterator in the delete method?

• To enhance the speed of the delete operation

• To avoid using a for loop which cannot delete a user during a request

• To simplify the code structure

• To ensure compatibility with all data types

What status code is returned when a delete operation is successful?

• 200

• 500

• 404

• 301

What is the purpose of returning a response entity with no content?

• To indicate a failed operation

• To log the operation details

• To signify a successful operation without returning data

• To provide additional information about the operation

What does the delete method return if the user to be deleted is not found?

• A 200 status

• A 404 status

• A 500 status

• A 301 status

How does the service handle exceptions during the delete operation?

• By using predefined exception handlers

• By retrying the operation

• By logging them

• By ignoring them
