Our end goal is to send a text message 24hours before it rains in New York City. First, we will work with the Twilio SMS API and send a text message. We will learn how to test an API with Postman. Second, we will incorporate the Weather API to trigger an if/else response.

By the end of the talk, you will have:

Called to Weather API and Twilio SMS API
Learned how to use Postman, a popular API testing tool
Coded a logic statement involving the API’s data

Looking for people who maintain MANY (10+) external APIs.
My questions are:

Name some 3rd party API tools you use to manage your stack
What's your biggest pain point dealing w APIs?
What solution have you hacked together to solve that pain point?
What is your ideal solution?

Thanks for sharing! Here's one of my favorite gifs for the road.
