If you've tried learning about APIs before, most of the information you've found is likely either too technical to understand, or too high-level to really be helpful. This course solves that problem – providing just the right level of depth for Non-Developers to effectively learn about APIs.

This course is designed specifically for Non-Developers. It uses a relatable, real-world analogy to explain APIs in a simple and effective manner and requires absolutely NO coding or knowledge of programming languages.

In not even 2 hours time, you'll learn what APIs are, why they exist, and how they work. You'll acquire practical strategies for learning about a new-to-you API, and even learn how you can try APIs on your own – without writing a single line of code. You'll explore API use cases, see actual APIs in action, and by the end of the course, be able to understand – and even participate in – technical discussions about APIs.
