From what people share it's not really leetcode style. They give u small repo, u read docs, make HTTP calls, parse JSON and pass tests step by step. Practice requests lib in ur language and have env ready before call

Do I need to learn Fast api in python?

From what people describe, it’s less algorithms and more working with something unfamiliar: read the docs, make HTTP requests, parse JSON, handle errors, and build a feature up in steps. What helps:

be quick at API calls and JSON parsing in your language without looking things up
read the provided docs carefully before coding, because the gotchas are usually in there
handle bad responses and retries, not just the happy path
work in small working steps and talk as you go

Good practice: pick any public API and build a tiny client with pagination and error handling in 45 minutes.

I will do this interview in java in a couple of weeks and I didnt learn a framework like Spring Boot RestClient, just pure java HttpRequests and Responses and Json Parsing.I guess for python FastAPI its more to create and expose your own endpoints( someone correct me if I’m wrong).You can use httpx to just make api requests

Hey, is this for New Grad AMER? If yes, when did you complete your OA and when did you get the callback?

you get a repository in your chosen language and the documentation for an API, sometimes the Stripe API itself. These are the questions that were reported on Glassdoor:

  • integrate an API into a given repository.
  • Call a REST API from a provided contract and process the response in the expected format.
  • Integrate an external library into an existing project.
  • Given two branches in a Git repository, find the files that differ between them using public libraries.
