Contact Event Entry Source? Really? That seems off.

I feel like the API option is more flexible, but I’m not completely confident about how it works in this context.

I practiced a similar question where we had to choose between entry sources, and I think Contact Event Entry Source was mentioned as a possibility.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about CloudPages being used for web forms. Could that be the answer?

I think the API Event Entry Source might be the right choice since it can trigger actions based on form submissions.

I'm a little confused by the wording of the question. Does the "third-party vendor" hosting the web page mean we can't use the CloudPages Entry Source? I'm not sure if that would be a factor in determining the right solution.

I feel pretty confident about this one. Based on the details provided, the Contact Event Entry Source seems like the most appropriate choice to enter the subscriber into the journey when the form is submitted.

Okay, let me think this through. Since the marketing manager wants an email sent as soon as the subscriber submits the form, I'm guessing the Contact Event Entry Source would be the best option to capture that real-time event.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The question mentions a web page and a subscriber form, so I'm not sure if I should be looking at API, CloudPages, or Contact Event as the entry source.

Wait, we're not using a carrier pigeon to deliver the email? Dang, there goes my idea for a 'feathered entry source'.
