Using REST APIs [WSO2 API Manager]

#ICYDK: Introduction

The WSO2 API Manager exposes a series of REST APIs and they are quite useful if you are going to create custom tools, solutions, for example, a Maven plugin. In this article, I’m going to explain how to use the APIs and in the next series of the articles, I’m going to show how to make use of the APIs to create a Maven plugin.

Getting Started

Here is the official documentation of the REST APIs. To invoke any API, first, we need to get a pair of clientId & client secret and then use them to get the access token. Here are the necessary steps, https://goo.gl/LpvnHW

#ICYMI: An Overview of API and API Integration

API (Application Programming Interface) is a piece of software that enables data exchange between applications and devices., as well as facilitate connectivity between devices and programs. API can also be defined as an interface that allows an enterprise application to communicate with backend systems, promotes seamless communication between multiple applications, and exposes only a limited amount of the internal functions of a program.

How Crucial Is the REST API Design in an API Integration Scenario?

Primarily APIs are used to establish a link between applications and devices. Crafting a proper REST API can help build functional integration between the required components. However, wrong implementation could compromise the entire project. https://goo.gl/11ZPHz
