Welcome! In today's lesson, we're going to build upon our API knowledge by exploring GET
requests with parameters. This crucial tool fetches specific API data. What's the goal for today? It's to understand how to use these requests and to uncover the request query structure.
Do you recall making basic API GET
requests? We can specify data in these requests, much like ordering a specific snack. Parameters in GET
requests are included after the ?
in the URL, and they are created as key-value pairs.
This is a query string where name
is the parameter key, and value
is the requested asset.
Request queries follow a structure focused on detail. After the ?
, we create key-value pairs and use &
to add parameters.
