The instructional video above covers the basics of using BitScoop to create relationships between various endpoints of an API. Dynamically referencing data between API endpoints allows you to simplify your data pipeline.

APIs often don’t specify the relationships between data in different endpoints. However, you can describe those relationships in your API Map. This allows you to standardize formats and more efficiently query data from an API. Streamlining your data retrieval helps minimize calls to the API.

API Map concepts covered: Populate Directive

This video builds upon the previous post related to modeling and filtering.

This series of videos uses some very basic sample data and a local API, but you can use any API you want. Should you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out at https://bitscoop.com/support.
