The video is about how to send a request to a website and map the response to a custom variable. The website also has an API that can be used to get an access token, which is then used to post content on the website's Facebook page. In order to get the access token, the user needs to get their API key from their account, and then visit the mmio developer documentation to find the path and API server for the Facebook pages API. The user then needs to encode the path and API server, and add it to the request url. They also need to add an authorization bearer access token to the headers. After setting up the headers, the user can click the send test button to test the request.
