The talk explains how API Platform can handle use cases like French election results, baccalauréat scores, and medication sales that share a need for flexible data models. It shows how to deploy API Platform when the API schema must be dynamic and defined by platform users rather than the technical team, i.e., schemaless or user-driven schemas.
