A customer asks an engineer to develop a framework to configure Cisco services that will be used to replace process of manual device configuration. The engineer plans to use a programmatic interface and must keep these considerations in mind:
* The customer's environment requires the script to authenticate before executing further actions.
* The customer's security requirements mandate the use of HTTPS transport.
* The support stall has limited shell scripting knowledge, so the scripts should be easy to read and write and be serf-documenting.
Which two solutions should be used to meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

I feel like YAML could help with configuration, but I'm not sure if it meets all the requirements for authentication and HTTPS.

I practiced with Bash scripts before, but I doubt they would be easy for the support staff to manage.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think REST calls might be necessary for the programmatic interface part, right?

I remember we discussed Python scripts in class; they seem like a good fit since they can handle HTTPS and are pretty readable.
