You have completed the API University course.

1

Find the business need

Start with the outcome: better data, less manual work, a new product feature, faster decisions, or a new workflow.

2

Find the API capability

Review what the API accepts, what it returns, how it authenticates, and how pricing or usage limits work.

3

Test, then integrate

Run a small example first. Once the request and response make sense, connect it to the business process that needs it.
