What is the Compute Engine metadata key that allows you to run code at startup?

startup-code
init-script
bootstrap-code
startup-script

The correct answer is: startup-script

The Compute Engine metadata key that allows you to run code at startup is "startup-script". This key is specifically designed to run code when your instance boots up. Option A is incorrect because there is no Compute Engine metadata key called "startup-code". Option B is incorrect because it refers to MetaData as "init-script" whereas it should be "startup-script". Option C is incorrect because "bootstrap-code" is not a Compute Engine metadata key. Make sure to use the correct metadata key "startup-script" to run code at startup.
