When dealing with APIs and documentation I think it's easy to try to get the information as quickly as possible. But taking some time to go through documentation and ask questions like if there are more efficient ways to pull something can help with efficiency.

plus it's good to know what other possible things you could do with the API. i almost always find something surprising in API docs.

It's a nice way to see if there is something in API that can make your work a little easier! It's also cool to see what kind of perspective influenced the design of the API.
