vinni shree Hi,
Using postman I made a rest api call and now I have a requirement to show that data in a screen in salesforce. So how do I store that data in salesforce.
Thank you
To store the data from your REST API call in Salesforce, you can use Apex to create a custom object and insert records into it. Here are the general steps to achieve this:
1) Create a custom object in Salesforce that corresponds to the data you received from your REST API call. Make sure to add necessary fields.
2) Write an Apex class that uses the HTTP callout to retrieve data from the REST API and then parse the response. (https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/apex_integration_services/apex_integration_rest_callouts?tb_cmp=growth_paid_search&gclid=Cj0KCQiA6fafBhC1ARIsAIJjL8lg5JdpSx74ZzwuREsvTPZlUSqIIGFGBpv0bLDgR2PA37wKXx7KPfoaArb2EALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds)
3) In the Apex class, create new instances of the custom object and populate the fields with the data retrieved from the REST API.

Use the DML (Data Manipulation Language) statements in Apex to insert the records into the custom object.
Optionally, create a Visualforce page or a Lightning component to display the data in Salesforce.
