Paths

The path of an HTTP listener can be static, which requires exact matches, or feature placeholders. Placeholders can be wildcards (*), which match against anything they are compared to, or parameters ({param}), which not only match against anything but also capture those values on a URI parameters map.

Take the following example paths for three listeners using a configuration that establishes api/v1 as the base path:

account/mulesoft/main-contact: only match the exact path request 

account/{accountId}/main-contact: matches all path requests structured similarly, such as  , and save salesforce as the value of accountId.

account/{accountId}/*: matches all path requests different from main-contact, such as  , and save mulesoft as the value of accountId.

URI parameter (Path Param) is basically used to identify a specific resource or resources . For eg : the URL to get employee details on the basis of employeeID will be GET /employees/{employeeID} where employees is resource and {employeeID} is URI parameter. Hence option 1is the correct answer
