Hello,

Pretty new on strapi, i get started with a blog. So easy with nuxtjs.

For now, i’d like to go a step further. I get a collection (books). This collection get a field (isbn).
On a new record, i’d like to fulfill the isbn field, onchange, call an external api to fetch data (title, description, author, …) and get other fields fulfilled.

Any idea to achieve this please :-).

Thanks for any help.

Regards
