Exercise Files
Today, we will do a few things:
- First, we will go over a few questions that came up around the concept of the
INNER JOIN. - Next, we will discuss REST APIs (representational state transfer) – an architectural style for creating, update, reading, and deleting data over HTTP.
- Finally, we will take a look at some existing REST APIs (e.g. Spotify, YouTube, Twitter, etc.) in order to study how they organize their REST interfaces.
