Learners will develop, apply, and evaluate API-based solutions for managing customer data using Postman and Flask. By the end of this course, learners will be able to build backend logic, implement HTTP methods, test APIs effectively, and validate real-world customer data operations through structured API workflows.

This hands-on project-based course is designed to help learners gain practical experience in customer data management using industry-relevant tools. Learners begin by setting up the required environment and understanding the role of Postman, Python libraries, Anaconda, and Flask. As the course progresses, they implement backend functions step by step, connect APIs with Postman, and apply POST and GET methods to manage customer records. The course also covers updating existing data and validating final outputs to ensure end-to-end API functionality. What makes this course unique is its strong focus on applied learning through a complete, guided project rather than isolated concepts. Learners work through realistic development scenarios that mirror professional API workflows, building confidence in designing, testing, and managing APIs. This course is ideal for learners who want to strengthen their practical API skills and apply them directly to customer data management use cases in real-world projects.

This module introduces learners to the fundamentals of API-based customer data management using Postman and Flask. Learners set up the development environment, understand essential tools and libraries, and establish communication between backend APIs and Postman to prepare for building and testing customer data operations.
