Google Cloud for Student Developers: Accessing G Suite REST APIs
Blog post from Google Cloud
In a blog post by Wesley Chun, Google Cloud introduces a video series aimed at encouraging STEM students to gain practical experience with industry APIs, beginning with a focus on G Suite's RESTful APIs like Google Drive. The series provides detailed guidance on using these APIs, starting with a codelab that helps users create a Python script to list files in Google Drive, showcasing the simplicity and potential of coding with Google Cloud APIs. The blog highlights the minimal code required to achieve this functionality and offers additional resources, such as open-source code repositories and comprehensive walkthroughs. It also previews the exploration of other G Suite APIs, including Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides, and sets the stage for future content on the Google Apps Script developer platform, inviting developers to expand their skills and creativity with Google Cloud tools.
