A RESTful API

I continue to learn new skills with Archi's Academy. What did I do this week? I did research on Rest API and watched lecture videos. I cared about how important it was and I ran a test in the Postman app. The summary of the information I have obtained is as follows:

A RESTful API is an architectural style for an application program interface (API) that uses HTTP requests to access and use data. That data can be used to GET, PUT, POST and DELETE data types, which refers to the reading, updating, creating and deleting of operations concerning resources. REST is a logical choice for building APIs that allow users to connect to, manage and interact with cloud services flexibly in a distributed environment. RESTful APIs are used by such sites as Amazon, Google, LinkedIn and Twitter.

SOAP APIs are also in use, except for the Rest API, and they have some differences with REST. I started out with the REST API because it is used the most and has many advantages.

So what type of API do you use while developing an application?
