Querying external APIs with XML data using WordPress

Welcome to part 4 of our series on querying external APIs with XML data using WordPress! In this video, we'll be learning how to use recommended and native WordPress methods like wp_remote_post() to make API requests.
We'll start off by discussing the requirements for this tutorial, and then we'll delve into XML and SOAP in WordPress. From there, we'll take a look at the WordPress HTTP Requests class and its various methods.
We'll also be using Postman to make API query requests, and then we'll move on to making an external WordPress API XML request. Along the way, we'll use error_log to debug in WordPress and learn how to get the WordPress API request response body.
Finally, we'll wrap up the video by converting an XML string to JSON in PHP and then converting that JSON string to a PHP array.
Thanks for watching!
