Adding an API to find the skills for a job listing

In this recipe, we add an additional operation to our API which will allow us to request the skills associated with a job listing. This demonstrates a means of being able to retrieve only a subset of the data instead of the entire content of the listing. While we will only do this for the skills, the concept can be easily extended to any other subsets of the data, such as the location of the job, title, or almost any other content that makes sense for the user of your API.

Become an O’Reilly member and get unlimited access to this title plus top books and audiobooks from O’Reilly and nearly 200 top publishers, thousands of courses curated by job role, 150+ live events each month,
and much more.
