API and Data Basics
Wednesday July 16, 2025 9:00am - 10:15am EDT

Feedback Survey
APIs are fun and powerful! Have you ever wished you could have a way to “push that button a hundred times” or search the data in your management systems in ways that the built-in search just can’t do? APIs are a great way of doing this, and many of the systems you already use come with them built-in! The goal of this session is to give a very basic understanding of APIs, how they may be discovered and used, and some strategies for working with the data you may get back.
