Being able to write SQL queries, (e.g. SELECT Statements with Table JOINs) and use Aggregation functions are some pre-requisites for this purpose. Having a good understanding of SQL DML statements will be helpful. We recommend below Udemy course to acquire this knowledge. |
Interfacing with Data – using APIs | Developer | Another common way to interface with your data platform(s) is via APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). Note that some APIs may require you to embed SQL within API calls, thus requiring you to have SQL skills noted above. A sound understanding of REST APIs and JSON would be required when working with APIs. To learn more about how to work with APIs we recommend this online Udemy course.

Data Objects - YAML | Developer (optional)
| Data Objects arrange data (exposed by data blocks) in a marketer-friendly manner. YAML is used to arrange data. The Data Object Editor, a low-code tool, automatically generates YAML code corresponding to Data Objects created via the Object Editor Designer View.
If Developers are keen to understand code behind Data Objects, it is possible to navigate to the YAML view of the Object Editor Tool. While YAML skills are optional, we recommend below Udemy course for those interested in learning YAML.
