Learn how to use the Census Bureau’s application programming interface (API) to quickly access data in a standardized way. In just a few easy steps, you can edit a sample URL, save your results, and open it in Excel to get the data you need.

This webinar will serve as an introduction to help get you started and get you familiar with how to navigate the application programming interface. Participants will have the opportunity to get hands on experience of their own building an API request using estimates from the American Community Survey (ACS).
