The AZ-2002: Develop an ASP.NET Core web app that consumes an API course is designed to provide learners with the skills and knowledge needed to create web applications using ASP.NET Core that can interact with APIs. This course is divided into three modules, each focusing on different aspects of web development and API consumption.
In Module 1, learners are introduced to ASP.NET Core APIs, the use of Swashbuckle to document APIs, and how to interact with an API through practical exercises. This module lays the foundation for understanding how APIs work within the ASP.NET Core framework.
Module 2 delves into implementing HTTP operations within ASP.NET Razor Pages, exploring .NET Core HTTP clients, and providing hands-on experience with performing HTTP operations in a web application context.
Finally, Module 3 focuses on rendering API responses effectively using Razor Pages. Learners will explore the project structure, syntax of Razor Pages, and apply their knowledge in a practical exercise that emphasizes displaying API data within a web page.
This course will help learners to build robust and interactive web applications, enhancing their ability to consume APIs and present data seamlessly to end-users.

ASP.NET Core is a modern, open-source framework for building web applications and APIs. Developed by Microsoft, it allows developers to create high-performance, cross-platform applications that can run on Windows, Linux, and macOS. The framework is a part of the wider .NET ecosystem, offering tools and libraries to build dynamic web experiences efficiently. ASP.NET Core simplifies the development process by integrating dependency injection, a modular HTTP request pipeline, and configuration APIs out of the box, making it a powerful choice for enterprises aiming to enhance their web presence.
APIs, or Application Programming Interfaces, are tools that allow different software applications to communicate with each other. They enable features or data from one system to be used by another application, facilitating interaction and data exchange between different software products. Essentially, APIs define the methods and data formats that applications use to communicate. This means you can leverage capabilities from multiple sources seamlessly, enhancing functionality without creating new software from scratch. They are fundamental in modern software development, aiding in everything from web service integrations to enabling app functionalities such as posting on social media or processing payments.
Swashbuckle is a tool used with ASP.NET Core applications to automatically generate documentation for web APIs. It creates a visually engaging interface for developers to interact with the API by visualizing its resources, trying out various API methods, and viewing correct request and response examples. Swashbuckle simplifies the integration of the Swagger framework and provides tools to customize and extend API documentation, making it easier for developers to understand and consume APIs within their applications.
HTTP operations, commonly known as methods, help define the action to be performed on a given resource on a web server. The most frequently used methods are GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and HEAD. GET is used to retrieve information from the server. POST sends data to the server to create a new resource. PUT updates an existing resource. DELETE removes existing resources. HEAD fetches only the headers of a resource. Each of these methods facilitates different tasks needed for interactive, dynamic websites and forms the backbone of data communication in web development.
.NET Core HTTP clients allow developers to send HTTP requests and receive responses from a server. Essential for web-based applications, these clients interact with APIs or web services, fetching data or executing operations over the internet. Built into the .NET Core framework, they support asynchronous operations, meaning they can perform tasks without blocking other functions, improving performance. The HttpClient class is most commonly used, offering a variety of methods for different HTTP methods such as GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE, making it versatile for different web communication needs.
Razor Pages is a feature of ASP.NET Core, a framework from Microsoft for building web applications. It makes coding page-focused scenarios easier and more productive. Razor Pages uses a simplified programming model with a webpage containing both the server code and the user interface. Each page is self-contained with its views and logic organized together, which promotes clean coding and makes it easier to understand and manage. Ideal for constructing web UIs, it combines the power of MVC architecture with the simplicity of a single-page programming model.
API consumption refers to the process of utilizing Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to connect and access functions and data from external software services or applications. This allows developers to integrate features and data from other services into their own applications without having to build those functions from scratch, streamlining development and enhancing functionality. Through APIs, an application can request services, pull data, or communicate with external software, creating interoperability and enhancing user experiences by connecting different technology platforms efficiently.
API responses are messages that a server sends back after receiving requests from an application. These responses can inform the application if the request was successful or not and often include additional data. For example, when an app asks for user information, the API response might return that data if the request is valid, or an error message if something went wrong. Handling these responses accurately allows applications to function smoothly and provide a seamless user experience, by updating data, fixing issues, or displaying necessary information to the user. API responses are fundamental in network communication between applications and servers.
