What is REST API?

Overview

REST is an architecture principle that enables data exchange between two systems using HTTP requests. A REST API uses standard HTTP methods such as PUT, GET, PATCH, DELETE, etc.

A REST API OR RESTful API is an application programming interface (API or web API) that conforms to the constraints of the REST architectural style. REST is an abbreviation for representational state transfer.

It allows for interaction with RESTful web services and provides a flexible, lightweight way to integrate applications, and has become the most common way of adding components to microservices architectures.
