Interface<\/strong> and it&#8217;s a particular set of protocols, routines and tools for creating specific software applications.<\/p>\n<p>An API is basically able to <em>specify how different software components should effectively interact.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>An API that does what it&#8217;s supposed to do makes it simpler for programmers to develop a particular product.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/academy.mobidea.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/api.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6026\"

id=\"api-pragmatic-uses\"><\/span>API: Pragmatic Uses<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Yes, indeed!<\/p>\n<p>An API is essentially a method for software programs to send sets of commands and\/or information on a specific format to other software programs.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s used for a simple reason:<\/p>\n<p>To ensure programs are able to <strong>effectively communicate with one another<\/strong>, using each other&#8217;s precious functions and resources.<\/p>\n<p>APIs are actually provided by any such program <em>which allows interaction with other programs.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Imagine you wanna create a program.<\/p>\n<p>You write and develop it like a pro.<\/p>\n<p>Now, what?<\/p>\n<p>You also wanna use functions that belong to other programs.<\/p>\n<p>But how?<\/p>\n<p>Easy!<\/p>\n<p>Just take a look at the API documentation in order to efficiently canvass through it and ultimately find the list of functions which are available.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-happened-before-apis\"><\/span>What Happened Before APIs?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You&#8217;re now wondering:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat went down before APIs created a tech revolution and changed the digital landscape?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In that dark time, publishers would basically aggregate an array of diverse paragraphs of specific content and several images from an affiliate network which represented the merchant or advertiser.<\/p>\n<p>What was the problem?<\/p>\n<p>This content could have been awesome and perfect, but there was a risk:<\/p>\n<p>It could NEVER become stagnant or have outdated links.<\/p>\n<p>If the content had those outdated links, there would be no way to update information without manually diving into the website and <strong>checking or changing that specific information.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With APIs, the process becomes simpler, since the API can sync information between software applications.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-are-apis-used-in-the-context-of-the-world-wide-web\"><\/span>How are APIs used in the context of the World Wide Web?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In the world wide web, APIs allow you to easily gain access to several resources which are basically only available <em>on another software application in a different server.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"heres-an-example-of-how-apis-are-used\"><\/span>Here&#8217;s an example of how APIs are used:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Know how you can rapidly register on different apps using your Facebook account?<\/p>\n<p>That is possible because Facebook has a specific API and companies can implement their code so they can be able to use that API and provide customers with an easy, reliable, and safe way to access a specific platform.<\/p>\n<p>Thinking about what happens when you don&#8217;t use an API?<\/p>\n<p>Simple.<\/p>\n<p>If you choose not to use an API, an application (commonly known as \u201capp\u201d) will &#8211; for instance &#8211; learn about a new Mobidea Academy post by opening <strong>www.academy.mobidea.com<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The application will then actually <strong>read the webpage as if it were a real human being<\/strong> and it will interpret the content located in &#8211; this case &#8211; the Mobidea Academy.<\/p>\n<p>Now let&#8217;s see what happens when you&#8217;ve got an API doing its thing!<\/p>\n<p>With an API, the app would find the info about the web page <strong>www.academy.mobidea.com<\/strong> by sending a message to the Mobidea Academy\u2019s API.<\/p>\n<p>The message is gonna be sent <em>in a pretty specific format, known as JSON.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-the-json-format\"><\/span>What is the JSON format?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The JSON format (JavaScript Object Notation) is an open-standard file <strong>containing data objects and respective attributes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For instance &#8211; when checking for new articles in the Mobidea Academy, the transmitted JSON file could look like<\/p>\n<p>article {<br \/>\ntitle: \u201cNew Article\u201d,<br \/>\ndate: 01\/01\/2017,<br \/>\ncontent: \u201cLots of text.\u201d,<br \/>\nauthor: \u201cJohn White\u201d<br \/>\n}<\/p>\n<p>What, next?<\/p>\n<p>What happens after sending the message using the JSON format?<\/p>\n<p>After sending it, the <strong>www.academy.mobidea.com<\/strong> API then replies with a fairly structured answer, similar to the example above.<\/p>\n<p>But why is this difference important?<\/p>\n<p>Why does it matter how the information is received or interpreted?<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s why:<\/p>\n<p>When you use an API, the specific structure of response and request is documented from the get go by

does and you don&#8217;t use an API?<\/p>\n<p>The app is probably gonna stop working!<\/p>\n<p>Yes!<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because &#8211; due to the change of site structure, design and user experience &#8211; the app fails to recognize it.<\/p>\n<p>It simply won&#8217;t be able to parse (understand) the data from a particular website.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, an API is a <strong>safer and more reliable option.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You know full-well that your app will continue to work continuously with a website.<\/p>\n<p>It wouldn&#8217;t matter whether or not the website decided to

language.<\/p>\n<p>There are also Web APIs.<\/p>\n<p>The most well-known types of API are:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>Remote Procedure Call (RPC)<\/li>\n<li>Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP)<\/li>\n<li>Representational State Transfer (REST)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Still not satisfied?<\/p>\n<p>Want some more examples?<\/p>\n<p>You can think of Windows, the computer OS developed by Microsoft to run PCs (personal computers.)<\/p>\n<p>Windows has lots of different API sets which are used by <em>both applications and system hardware.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Moreover, Windows isn&#8217;t the only operating system which provides API, since the majority do.<\/p>\n<p>The aim?<\/p>\n<p>To make sure programmers can actually create applications which are <strong>consistent with the specific operating environment.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Web APIs are also used by third-party software developers in order for them to create software solutions for users.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"
