What is API?
API stands for Application Programming Interface. An API is a software
intermediary that allows two applications to talk to each other. In other
words, an API is the messenger that delivers your request to the provider that
you're requesting it from and then delivers the response back to you.

# Assume we have a resource /users/1 that represents a user with id 1 and name Alice
The PATCH method applies partial modifications to a resource # To update the user's name to Bob using PUT, we need to send the entire representation of
the user
PUT /users/1 HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/json

HTTP methods are a set of actions that can be performed on a {


given resource "id": 1,
"name": "Bob"
}

# To update the user's name to Bob using PATCH, we only need to send the changed attribute
PATCH /users/1 HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/json

{
"name": "Bob"
}
SOAP stands for Simple Object Access Protocol

SOAP uses only XML for exchanging information in its message


format whereas REST can use XML, JSON, Plain-text

SOAP is difficult to implement and it requires more bandwidth


whereas REST is easy to implement and requires less bandwidth
