We still have a few seats left in the API Workshop. As a reminder, below is the topic description. Please register today if you would like to attend, as this workshop will likely sell out soon as well.

There are only a handful of seats available for our preconference workshops on API and Security topics, so we will be closing registration very soon due to capacity limitations. Please register today if you haven't yet!
As a reminder, these workshops are full day hands-on labs so it's a great learning opportunity for your teams. Below is a summary of the workshop descriptions:
Topic 1
