Understanding API integration services!!! Application Programming interface services are an unfamiliar term to end users, on the other hand, it makes developer’s work lot easier. During the development process, the logic to define the technology used to solve the business programme has some set of instructions making that code set the main feature of the application. Now to launch the application on a commercial scale includes multiple code sets making the application compatible, scalable and accessible. Alternatively, a developer can go ahead for custom API development every time to make the application have multiple features apart from the main features or can just use API integration services directly to save development time. Few advantages of Application programming interface are: API libraries can be an internal service or an external service. An API is more than an interface and plays a vital role in real-time implementation. API services as an integration to the major programming script or a communication protocol. ● ● ●
What is an API document? The experts in information technology have provided some API documents to make the API integration services executable. An API document is a technical document for the third party developer to integrate a service without coding it all over again. The document has the details like functions, classes, return types and arguments to allow the developer to focus on problem-solving rather than going for custom API development to support the application. Most common examples of API Most popularly known API is Google Maps which provides an access for real-time traffic and mapping for an application, the number of different applications develops their logistics on Google Map API. Twitter API is another example which is commonly used to filter and display required tweets in real-time. Use of Public API to fetch data Public Application programming interface is open sourced and the developers can use them in their application to make the interface smart and interactive by using the data from another application. An open sourced public API allows the applications to fetch the data from the source and the developer can use the content, but access is denied which eliminates the problem of authentication in public API’s.
Adding authentication in private API’s The Public API we have discussed above doesn’t require any authentication but its not the case for all type of API integration services. For example, a retailer application requires to run an API for providing discounts to its customers and the API has to have an authentication to it. The API developers will use an external API and generate an API key by understanding the API documentation for the same. Thus, an API has made the development process easier and updates even better. Quantumsoftech provides API integration services for existing business and also work on custom API development as per the business requirement. This API integration service provider thoroughly analyze the problem statement to integrate innovation and updated technology solutions which makes the development process effective and robust.
