What is REST API?
A REST API is an application programming interface in which the API follows REST design principles or an architectural style of representational state transfer. The REST API provides developers with a high level of flexibility and freedom, which has become the standard way to connect components and applications in a microservice architecture. The REST API is the browser and programming language independent. REST API clients communicate via HTTP protocol to perform standard CRUD operations within a resource.

An Application Programming Interface (API) is a computational interface that describes how multiple software components interact with each other and allows applications to exchange data between them. The APIs are standard-compliant (REST and HTTP), developer and automation-friendly, and easy to test. APIs are usually well documented to use and suitable for version control.
