You can build lots of cool stuff. Getting corporate IT to allow api access is like pulling teeth. We have Outlook and Teams, which have APIs that can do things. But no one has the ability to access them. So much for automating your workflows.

Reminds me of Lotus Notes back in the day. It could do anything and had great potential, but there were only 3 developers who had access. In a company of 50k employees.
