# Unemployment Data Viz with an API

> Goal: To build an interactive data visualization that relies on a dynamic API backed by cloud services.

The tutorial will walk you through the process of creating a Vega-Lite chart that shows unemployment rates over time for a given county. The app allows the user to supply name of a county and state; once submitted, the app calls a custom API built with a Google Cloud Function. In turn, this cloud function runs a SQL query on a BigQuery data table containing county-level data from the Bureau of Labor of Statistics.
