SOMMAIRE
1. What is an API ?
An “Application Programming Interface” is a computer solution that allows you to consult and interact with other computer systems in a simple and secure environment. Simply put, an API allows one application to connect to another to exchange data and information.
An API exposes the calls that it allows and thus makes features or data available.
The main advantages of APIs are:
- Industrialize exchanges
- Safe exchanges
- Simplify access to information
APIs can take several forms:
- Private APIs: can only be used by members of the company
- Partner API: can only be used by certain partners
- Public APIs: can be used by everyone
There are many APIs that have various uses:
- Youtube
- Microsoft
- Slack, etc.
