A user (like a mobile app or a website) sends a request to an API, usually requesting data or executing some action.
The request is processed by the API, which interacts with the appropriate server or database to obtain or update information.
The API response sends information back to the client in a standardized format such as JSON or XML once the required action is performed or data is collected.
The client retrieves the data or result, displays it to the user for review, or processes it further to trigger additional actions or decisions, enhancing the overall user experience.
APIs enable businesses to quickly adopt new technologies and integrate innovative services, helping them stay competitive and meet evolving customer needs.
By offering APIs, businesses can open new revenue streams, allowing third-party developers to build on their platform and extend their market reach.
