What is API?

Lesson 1 of 10 in Coddy's API in Python course.

API stands for Application Programming Interface. The foundational principle of API is that it's a way of communicating between one or more servers through your program.

 

It's a gateway of connection between the server and the client.

 

Usually, the authentication of API is done through something called "API Key" which will be the credential for the connection.
