In today's digital world, no system works in isolation. REST APIs are the standard way to connect applications, allowing your systems to "talk" to each other and to third parties.
What is a REST API?
An API (Application Programming Interface) is a set of rules that allows different applications to communicate. REST is an architectural style that makes these communications simple, predictable, and scalable.
Common Use Cases
- Connect your website with ERP: Sync products, prices, stock automatically
- Integrate payment gateways: Process payments securely
- Expose your catalog: Allow partners to display your products
- Connect with CRM: Centralize customer information
- Mobile apps: One backend for web and mobile
- Automations: Connect with Zapier, Make, and other platforms
Benefits of a Well-Designed API
- Scalability: Add new channels without rebuilding the backend
- Flexibility: Change the frontend without touching the logic
- Integrations: Connect with any system
- Automation: Foundation for automatic workflows
