Introduction

The many kinds of individual requests that are transmitted by a webapp or any mobile application make it feasible for clients and the server to communicate with one another. However, in order to properly integrate things together, they make use of something known as an API, which stands for an application programming interface. By default, and the vast majority of the time, our API employs REST in order to communicate with the servers.

REST, which stands for “Representational State Transfer,” is a mouthful implementation. This means that the REST API does not provide any specifications; rather, it is a set of new rules that can be used while implementing or building a new web API. For example, in the screenshot below, we have some implementations, and which implementation an organisation wants to adopt is entirely up to them.

When we work with API, they will typically refer to resources by grouping them together. Therefore, clients will continually send a request to the server in order to gain access to resources in such a format.
