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.

API questions are best answered on Stack Overflow (www.stackoverflow.com) with the smartsheet-api tag.
Issues are best entered on GitHub

What language are you using?
