Welcome to the LibGuide on working with APIs! Please use the tabs on the left to navigate the guide's content.
An API (Application Programming Interface) is a set of instructions and standards for accessing a software application. APIs often allow you bypass a graphical interface, such as you might find on a website, and receive pure data responses from a server. This makes them very useful for data gathering and analytics, and for programmatically interacting with web services.
