Integrate API into Wordpress site

Hi, I have totally no experience in coding. I have a wordpress site (webcampacker.com) and i wish to build a website like webcamtaxi.com but it seems like have to create a huge content for it.

After that, i found a free API which is https://www.webcams.travel/api/ and it has a lot of useful data for my site. I wondering to know whether i can use this API and build a site like "Webcamtaxi.com".

If it is possible, may i know how much will it cost for this project?

I have no knowledge in coding, will it be difficult to maintain if using API method to build content?

It's pretty straightforward. And it looks like you can integrate their API with the free or paid version pretty easily.

Your server will make calls to https://rapidapi.com/webcams.travel/api/webcams-travel via RESTful HTTP calls and pipe the data back to your site. They version their API so once you've implemented it once, it's likely you won't have to maintain the content. If you have the content theme/layout for your site and know where you want the webcams to go, the API plumbing work should be a light lift. You'd have to supply the API key.

Is it difficult? If hire developer to do this, is it expensive?

You don't need to hire someone for that, it's a 5min job. Just use a plugin that handle http calls.
