Troubleshooting APIs With A RESTClient

When it comes time to connect to APIs, I find that it is a lot easier to test them using a REST client before you start writing any code. Using a REST client allows for you to make sure that you are able to connect to it successfully, and it allows for you to try out different parameters of the API.

One of the best tools that I was introduced to is, the Firefox RESTClient Plugin. This plugin is very easy to use, and it allows for you to save your request for quick reference.

This article discusses how you can use the RESTClient connect to an API and it goes through the different settings. To read the article, click here: https://connect.liveperson.com/content/troubleshooting-apis

Update For March

Hi Everyone,

I know it has been awhile since my last post here, so I just wanted to give everyone a quick update. I haven't had a lot of time to create content rich posts since I have had a few life changes in the past 2 months. I ended up fracturing my ankle mid February, so my daily routine has changed quite a bit, and I had been asked to create blog posts for the new support community at LivePerson, so I have been focusing on creating content there.

I plan to start sharing those post here, and to start making new content for this blog shortly. In the mean time, I appreciate all of the readers that have still been dropping by.

In case you are interested, here is a link to the Experts Blog on the new support community at LivePerson: https://connect.liveperson.com/blogs/expert-blog
