    I been using app scripts to try and learn to code. I am super familiar with spreadsheet and their built in functionality but I am pushing myself to learn to code for more advanced customization. I want to learn how to work with API’s and wow this was such an amazing tutorial. Absolutely perfect. Cant wait to check out more of your content.

      I don't know. Does Sharepoint have an API you can use?
      When you wan to use an API, you always have to A) check if the creator of the system provides an API and B) check their documentation on how to use the API.
