New Video - easily set up an API in FileMaker. QuickBooks Desktop update!
In this excerpt from Productive Computing University's API Fundamentals for FileMaker Developers course, you'll discover how to easily make an API connection using a free Agify API resource.

If you are just getting started with API development, this is a great place to begin. The Agify API doesn't require an API key, and it provides a simple, easy-to-understand JSON response.

Watch the video to learn how to:
- Set up an API request in FileMaker.
- Create a dynamic URL that queries the Agify API using the first name input.
- Receive and parse JSON responses from the API, so you can extract valuable data.

Take your FileMaker capabilities further with the full API Fundamentals course at Productive Computing University. With over 6 hours and 48 lessons of detailed tutorials, you'll gain the skills needed to create sophisticated API integrations that can transform your applications.
