    Times asked 4
    Official solution

    SimpleAuthentication: tu kaun hai? (login). Authorization: tujhe permission hai? (role check).

    Example

    # auth
if check_password_hash(user.password, pwd):
    session['user_id'] = user.id

# authz
if user.role != 'admin':

  2. 2
    Different HTTP methods
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleHTTP verbs REST ke tools. Methods HTTP ke hain, REST unhe convention se use karta hai.

    GET read cacheable. POST create payload. PUT replace. PATCH patch. DELETE remove.

    GET exists bina REST ke bhi — browser address bar.

    HTTP verbs + status REST ki zabaan. GET read, POST create, PUT replace, PATCH partial, DELETE remove. GET typically no body.

    Status: 200 OK, 201 created, 202 accepted (Celery task), 400 bad input, 401 no/bad token, 403 role nahi, 404 missing, 409 conflict (double book), 500 server.

    AJAX/fetch page reload nahi. SPA poori isi pe. Postman se bina Vue ke API prove karo — examiner pasand.

    Example

    GET /api/venues
POST /api/venues
PUT /api/venues/1
DELETE /api/venues/1

    Project example: resources.py methods list. Postman 4-5 calls.

    Viva tipGET typically no body (cacheable). POST/PUT/PATCH haan payload. PUT idempotent, POST nahi.

Advice: Very friendly proctor. He waits patiently for you to think and then code or answer. Also better to demonstrate downloading the project file from the vivabooking website submission page itself. You mostly wont need to perform checksum if thats the case. Just be confident and answer with conviction.
