REST APIs for FDEs

Quick answer

How systems talk to each other over HTTP. Almost every customer integration is a REST API on one side and your product on the other.

Practise it

  1. 1. Authenticate and paginate through a real API
  2. 2. Handle rate limits and timeouts
  3. 3. Read an OpenAPI spec and generate a client

Where it sits

Stage 2 of the roadmap: Data and APIs. You can move data between two systems and keep it correct.
