Caling a RESTful API from R

API Code-Along 1

Warning

This page is under construction and will be updated as the materials are posted online.

We are going to use R and in particular the {httr2} package to interact with the Metropolitan Museum of Art Collection API. In particular, we will leverage the API to answer the following questions:

• What are the departments contained in the museum?
• How many art pieces contain a shield?
