APIApplication programming interface

An API is a defined way for one piece of software to request data or actions from another, such as a website fetching prices or sending a form.

What API means

Web APIs usually work over HTTP: a request goes to a URL and the response comes back, often as JSON data.

APIs connect a website to payment gateways, maps, CRMs, email tools, and headless CMSs, without building those systems from scratch.

Example

When a customer pays online, the checkout sends the order to the payment provider's API and receives a confirmation in return.

Why it matters

Almost every modern website depends on APIs, and understanding them is the step from building pages to building working products.
