API Developer Learning Path
4 courses
9 hours
This three-course path introduces learners to Apigee, Google Cloud's full-lifecycle API management platform. Using a combination of presentations, hands-on labs, and supplemental materials, you will explore the full API lifecycle, and learn how to design, secure, and publish APIs using the Apigee API Platform. You will use labs to build APIs that solve real-world scenarios.
Note: We strongly recommend that you take the courses in order. Later lab activities build on APIs you implemented during previous labs. These labs model an API development process that can be used for real-world projects in Google Cloud.
This learning path is intended for developers, architects, or engineers responsible for the solutioning, design, implementation, or management of APIs.
