Blogger is a popular web publishing platform built and maintained by Google. Many popular websites use the content management system, including the Python Software Foundation, Girl Scouts, and Flipboard.

This course introduces the Blogger API, which allows users to search and manage user data and blog content. After learning to view user profiles and their blog entries, you’ll start creating and managing your Blogger-based website. You’ll learn how to create and update pages, search your blog index, and publish blog posts. You’ll also learn how to edit, revert, and delete content.
