Description
Too many APIs are just built on an as-needed basis. In this course, Designing RESTful Web APIs, you will design your API to meet your needs before you embark on implementing the service. First, you will explore the design philosophies of creating an API on top of REST without the dogma. Next, you will discover how to design APIs to take URIs, verbs, message bodies, versioning and security into account. Finally, you will examine how creating an API can stand up to the test of time instead of extending your proof of concept into a supported API you can't get rid of. By the end of this course, you will have complete understanding and knowledge to produce useful APIs for your project.
