Build Skills: Explore the art world by using RESTFUL APIs
29 April, 2022 | 3:00 PM - 4:30 PM (UTC) Coordinated Universal Time
- Format:
Livestream
Topic: Coding, Languages, and Frameworks (including GitHub & AI coding)
Language: English
API, short for application programming interface, is a convenient way to interface between a user and a product. In this workshop, we will dive deep into what an API is and how it's used. Then we'll show you how to build your own API using the REST protocols to get images of artwork made public by museums around the world. You will also learn how to connect to external APIs and query two different sets of data. This is a beginner's workshop that will give you the confidence to start using RESTful APIs on your own!
Who is this workshop aimed at?
- Upskilling professionals and students interested in building core, high-demand technical skills.
- Teachers, CS faculty, STEM volunteers, and Microsoft Learn Student Ambassadors whom would like to share or teach this workshop on-campus and online.
