Advanced Visualizations with D3.js for Hierarchical Topics with Symbl’s APIs in Postman
D3.js is not famous for the interactive hero banner on their website but for their data driven documentation library called D3.js. Written in JavaScript their library enables developers to visualize data in three dimensions.
Added to tests in Postman, the D3.js library enables developers interested in displaying advanced visualizations from hierarchical topics from Symbl.ai’s APIs.
In the following blog you use D3.js to create an advanced visualization for mind mapping topics from a Symbl.ai conversation. You sign up with Symbl.ai. After sign up you download Postman’s collections for Symbl.ai. Inside of Postman you create a script. With the script you visualize the hierarchy of topics.
