[Rdap] RDAP Town Hall “Ask Me Anything” webinar - Using APIs for Non-Programmers - Greg Janée

[Agnes Jasinska]

Hi,

I would be very interested in attending and in learning the topic, but I
have another meeting I cannot move during that time. Would it be possible
to access a recording? But if not, I completely understand.

Thank you, and I hope you are doing well.

Agnes
