Trying To Learn How To Use API To Extract Data

Hello! I’m a complete newbie in Data Science and I’m trying to learn how to get data from an API. I understand an API could be public or could require authentication.

I worked with CVS files and I wanted to experience or practice getting data from APIs.

I’m getting familiar with Python so I was wondering if you could help me with the following issues:

  1. Trying to understand and practice the different methods you can use API to request data (I am not sure if it has to be from a Dataset formar or can it be any kind of format) with Python

  2. What are some good options to get APIs to work on data Science

  3. I am not even close to get to a point where I am able to do Reproducible projects/models but I do wonder how including an API (understanding that it is some kind of “personal Key”) to share my code and people to be able to use it.

Hope I made sense of what my doubts are and I apologize in advance if I seem confused about some terms (I do think I am).
