What is REST API?

A REST API works in a similar way. You search for something, and you get a list of results back from the service youâre requesting from.
An API is an application programming interface. It is a set of rules that allow programs to talk to each other. The developer creates the API on the server and allows the client to talk to it.
RESTÂ determines how the API looks like. It stands for âRepresentational State Transferâ. It is a set of rules that developers follow when they create their API. One of these rules states that you should be able to get a piece of data (called a resource) when you link to a specific URL.
Each URL is called a request while the data sent back to you is called a response.
