Oh... you need to fill your RDMS with a bunch of JSON responses from your 3rd party API. So you can then decode them in memory because I actually need to select * where identifier = 'banana' to do analytics.

Meanwhile the API returns highly structured data perfect for a RDMS, but we dont know how to query SQL without an API in the frontend. So welcome to my hell.
