The answer is "yes and no". While we CAN in fact store the raw body response from an API call, we cannot store the API call object itself. I show why this is and I show the (slightly complicated to explain, but ultimately rather simple) way that we can recover (or "rehydrate") an API call object from the raw JSON body. Also, I talk about potential alternatives to fetching and storing raw body responses and talk about some of the data type issues that are involved.
