FAQs
What is an API?
API stands for Application Programming Interface. An API is a list of commands that determines how software applications communicate with each other and the kind of output that is returned to a system user, following a software user inputting a request.
What does an API do?
Generally, API’s are used across many software applications. An API receives requests and sends back the responses allowed for public use. If there is no connection made or resources available following a request, a user may receive and error message. Intentionally designed API’s can be used to control security, reduce the code needed and establish consistency across software applications on the same platform.
How is an API developed?
An API is developed like any other software application. It should be properly planned for, specifications gathered and securely coded. This includes the information that is allowed to be communicated, how it should be communicated, what error messages are seen and specified security policies.
