What is a RESTful API?

• Application Programming Interface (API) – put simply, a set of rules that helps systems talk and expose/share data to one another across the Internet in a consistent way.

• Representational State Transfer (REST) is a standard architectural pattern describing how distributed systems can expose a consistent interface. When people use the term REST API, they are generally referring to an API accessed using the HTTP protocol at a predefined set of URLs.

These URLs represent various resources — any information or content accessed at that location, which can be returned as JSON, HTML, audio files, or images. Often resources have one or more methods that can be performed on them over HTTP, like GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE. The action represented by the first and last of these is clear, but POST and PUT have specific meanings. How they are defined is confusing, but the general rule is: use POST to create resources and PUT to update resources.
