Develop an ASP.NET Core web app that consumes an API

Microsoft

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.

Lesson 2: Build the Code Environment With the Necessary Tools to Consume an API
In this lesson, you will learn to independently use the tools and components necessary to communicate with and consume API services. You will also gain a clear understanding of the different types of APIs available for application development, and build confidence in integrating this layer into your own environment.

Introduction: Develop an ASP.NET Core Web App that Consumes an API
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.
Lesson 1: Prepare the Microsoft Lab Environment
In this foundational lesson, you will be able to prepare your lab environment with a free trial of Microsoft Azure. We will explore the trial’s features throughout this lesson and short course, to prepare you for real-world scenarios.
Lesson 3: Prepare and develop a C# ASP.NET Core Web Application that interacts with an API
In this lesson, you will learn concepts and skills to work more efficiently using reusable API components. You will also utilize .NET Packages to experience automated code that is both efficient and easy to integrate.
Lesson 4: Develop an ASP.NET Core Razor Page that will Perform HTTP Operations
In this lesson, you will create and build a Razor Page to demonstrate the use of both ASP.NET Web Pages and Razor Pages within the same application. You will also utilize the new Razor Page to interact with a REST API, performing Add, Delete, and View operations. This will showcase how quickly a web application can be developed when an API is already in place. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to apply these skills to your current ASP.NET Web Applications, seamlessly integrating APIs, ASP.NET Pages, and Razor Pages to upgrade your applications without starting from scratch.
Lesson 5: Create a Razor Page that will Render/Trigger API Response Events
In this lesson, you will create an interactive Razor Page that handles communication between your application and the API using Request and Response events.
