Recording of the session on June 29th 2023 / In English Language
We will discover what REST APIs are, and wrap one as vvvv nodes to use it in our projects. We’ll use the VL.SimpleHTTP 1 library. We’ll also see how to read the documentation of a REST API, and test it in external tools such as Postman.
What you will learn:
- HTTP basics
- What a REST API is
- How read an API documentation
- How to test an API outside of vvvv
- How to communicate with this API in vvvv
- How to build a nodeset to re-use later
