Designing RESTful Web APIs by Shawn Wildermuth

Are you embarking on creating an API for your website or mobile app? If so, just striking forward with your API could be a mistake. In this course, Designing RESTful Web APIs, you will see how to design an API so you can see how REST really works and everything you need to take into account before you deploy your first API. First, you will explore the fundamentals of HTTP and REST. Then, you will design and entire API including its URIs, verb usage, message bodies, associations, paging, error handling, and caching. Finally, you'll know learn why versioning is so important to a successful API project and know different security considerations for locking down your API. By the end of this course, you'll be able to design a REST API that will stand the test of time.
