Hello,

My name is Jackson and I am keen to learn about programming and coding to create my own flows.

Can someone please give an example of how they used JavaScript library in Adobe Express in their web application.

And is this achieved thru an API?

Hi @JacksonXR --

It is achieved via a web SDK. You can learn more about what the Embed SDK is here: https://developer.adobe.com/express/embed-sdk/

If you want to get started with embedding Adobe Express capabilities in your own app, start with the SDK documentation: https://developer.adobe.com/express/embed-sdk/docs/guides

Best,

Amanda

Hi @amanda_h,

Thank you.
I have already made some headway in the interim of receiving a reply by googling some key phrases from the subject line of the original post.
What had me stumped: and continues to do so is, is disambiguating what a API is and SDK is; my chosen SDK Android Studio - which I use to call an API?
I'm still in the very early stages of development :fu
