Certification Aid wants to trigger and email send in Marketing Cloud when a purchase is made on their website. Which API should be used for this? (Choose 2.)

A. Subscriber API

B. Email API

C. REST API

D. SOAP API

C.   REST API
D.   SOAP API

Explanation:

✅ C. REST API
REST API is well-suited for modern, lightweight integration needs and supports Triggered Sends, including transactional emails after an event like a purchase. REST is recommended for web apps due to its lower overhead and modern design.

✅ D. SOAP API
SOAP API also supports TriggeredSend functionality and is widely used in enterprise systems. It allows email send definitions and contact data to be dynamically provided.

❌ A. Subscriber API
There is no standalone "Subscriber API" in Marketing Cloud. Managing subscriber data happens via SOAP or REST APIs, but "Subscriber API" is not a valid option.

❌ B. Email API
“Email API” is not a specific SFMC API. Triggered sends are implemented via SOAP or REST, not a separate “Email API”.
