Hi all,
I am totally green in terms of creating API and programming stuff, but keen very much to learn it. Do you know any places to recommend as a good start points?

Hi Marcin,
Is it for Smartsheet or in general? Below you have some info when it comes to Smartsheet.
Please see the attached link/screenshot for more information.

Hi Andree,
I must say: both ;].
You know, to learn how to use it with Smartsheet, I assume I have to learn how to create an API in one of coding languages etc. but which one is the best to choose? Which one is the easiest for me? I have no idea
Also, I would like to know what can I obtain by using APIs with Smartsheet, any exaples? Probably because I have no knowlegde about it, I can't see what kind of extension (in terms of scope of using Smartsheet) I can get. Or maybe it is only for highly specialized functions that I will never use?
So confused...
I'm also interested in learning API, but I don't have the time and use case to justify it. Except that it would be fun and useful to know. If that's your situation as well, I would recommend looking at other options but first, go through what you need.
There are many resources, Linkedin Learning, Skillshare, Udemy, Youtube.
Heres a great starting point and then Craig and others that are familiar with API in the community can most definitely give better resources.

I have been using the API to send rows to sheets. Recently I have seen single row submissions showing up as duplicate rows, randomly. Not always. Has anyone else been seeing this phenomenon, or do I have some sort of bug in my code. Using .NET SDK.
