I worked for Apigee Edge as a software engineer (contractor) over 1 year and the material in these 3 courses help to connect the dots between components of the Apigee API Platform.

Course was brief but gives you lots of references to continue learning about OAuth2 which is a kinda hard topic to master, but the course does set you up to real world work,

This course was not so interesting as the previous two modules. Too much of handwritten code all the way using configurations prone to human errors and very cumbersome.
