This is great information, thanks. I learned more about APIs in the first 30 minutes of this video than hours spent reading and watching other material. I'd be interested to learn more about what you're talking about around @33:00 - where you have to log in to a site then you do you API calls. Do you have any resources on this?
Not specific to that. Like we mention in the video, every site is different. I do have an API AutoHotkey syntax writer which can definitely save a lot of time though. It's available here www.the-automator.com/webservice-api-calls/

Thank you for sharing this information I'm sure it will be extremely useful for me when I get around to that aspect of my work-script. I've been meaning to ask if you have a moment. Why Fiddler? On the one hand, why not, but on the other, I've known Wireshark as the most popular and powerful.
I believe Wireshark is much more powerful. But as with most things that are powerful, they're complex. To me both Fiddler & Fiddler Everywhere present you with the relevant data in a usable way. 99% of the time, Fiddler has what I want and in a much easier to understand way.
For anyone else curious, Fiddler Everywhere went subscription-only about 2 months after this video released. Real bummer. Free version is no longer available at all, although Fiddler Classic is still available for free.
Fantastic video! Looking forward to more API videos. Cheers!
Thanks Dillon!

Yep, that really annoyed me! Glad I stuck with the original one
