Apigee API Jam Lab Guides

Note: For the previous version of the API Jam archived on 18th October 2019, please navigate to supporting material in the Archives folder.

This repository contains the supporting material for Apigee hands-on workshops that introduces users to API Management concepts and the Apigee API Management Platform. We call these events "API Jams". These hands-on workshops take into account the experience of hundreds customers who have used Google's Apigee platform to implement successful API programs. By the end of these workshops, attendees will walk away with practical experience using our platform, along with an understanding of its comprehensive capabilities.
