Challenges When Using REST APIs
It’s also important to know that REST APIs come with specific challenges. The statelessness of REST can lead to larger requests since all necessary data must be included in each request. This also creates issues like data overfetching and underfetching, which can impact performance, as multiple requests may be needed to gather all data, or excessive data may…

REST API Methods
Most developers are familiar with HTTP verbs/methods. Because of this, understanding REST API methods is quite simple to wrap your head around. REST APIs use the standard HTTP methods that developers (and most technical people) already know. With REST, each method is intended to perform specific functions: Each method corresponds to the CRUD (Create, Read,…
