This course is unique because it will allow you to utilize your current skill set and be confident enough to upgrade your code and web applications for efficiency, speed, and security. By modularizing your code into APIs and implementing ASP.NET Apps that will consume them, you will be able to write less code, with more powerful results. By adding APIs into your environment, you can take advantage of a new type of architecture which will allow you and your team members to easily deploy and share code. HTTP Client Functionality will give you the edge when creating applications that need to work with Add, Edit, and View functionality. After talking this short course, you will be able to strategize and plan the expansion of your ASP.NET applications to include techniques that will simplify your code and result in, beautiful, modern architecture that can communicate with any API, written in any language. Learners with experience in C#, HTML, and CSS who are looking to expand and make their code more efficient should take this course.

An API (Application Programming Interface) is a reusable component that is written in any programming language, and then consumed by Web Applications, Mobile Applications, Desktop Applications, and more. This short course will provide hands-on experience using Visual Studio Code and C# to consume an API that will result in the exchange of data, known as requests and responses.

Frequently asked questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
You will be eligible for a full refund until two weeks after your payment date, or (for courses that have just launched) until two weeks after the first session of the course begins, whichever is later. You cannot receive a refund once you’ve earned a Course Certificate, even if you complete the course within the two-week refund period. See our full refund policy.
