I want to make a small web app, in which i need to call on an external WEB API. It exists with Ruby, Python and Javascript bindings, and then theres a JSON version.

I was wondering if anyone has tried referencing a Javascript or JSON WEB API this way? I am simply not sure how to create a "client for interaction, as I have only done this with WCF.

I would prefer a solution that works with VSCode

What I have tried:

A log of googleing, but i've had no luck finding a descriptive article on the subject.

Thank you. This is great info, albeit not what i was looking for. As far as i can tell, this tells me how to create my own WebAPI

What i really want is to make use of an existing WebApi (in one of the specified formats), calling it from my own .NET Core project.

What is the exact issue in calling an external API?
