Rest Api

A RESTful web API (also called a RESTful web service) is a web API implemented using HTTP and REST principles. It is a collection of resources, with four defined aspects: the base URI for the web API, such as http://example.com/resources/ the Internet media type of the data supported by the web API. This is often JSON but can be any other valid Internet media type provided that it is a valid hypertext standard. the set of operations supported by the web API using HTTP methods (e.g., GET, PUT, POST, or DELETE). The API must be hypertext driven.[14]
