Designing RESTful APIs

Discover the foundation of Web APIs, the common systems for passing and updating information to web applications.

Practice gathering and reading information from web APIs that already live on the internet.

Begin creating your own API endpoints and learn to serialize your data to package it up for transfer across the web using HTTP.

Control access to your APIs by limiting who can access the resources behind them and ensuring that only authorized users can read and modify data.

Customize your APIs to be usable and approachable by the developers who will consume them.
