A developer writes an application that refines data in temporary secure file storage hosted on the public cloud. Data will be deleted after processing and does not contain any private information. What is the advantage that a public cloud deployment provides to the developer?
Importing Libraries: The script imports the requests and json libraries necessary for making HTTP requests and handling JSON data.
URLs Definition: The url1 variable holds the Webex API endpoint for creating webhooks, and url2 is the target URL where Webex will send the messages.
Token Handling: The token variable contains the OAuth2 token required for authentication with the Webex API.
Setting Headers: The headers dictionary includes the Content-Type set to application/json and the correct Authorization header that uses the Bearer token.
Payload Preparation: The payload dictionary contains the necessary information to create the webhook, including its name, target URL, resource type, and event.
Making the Request: The requests.request method sends a POST request to the Webex API endpoint with the specified headers and payload.
Printing the Response: The response from the Webex API is printed out, encoded in 'utf-8'.

By correctly setting the Authorization header to include the Bearer token, the developer ensures that the script can authenticate and interact with the Webex API as required.
