    This document provides an overview of RESTful APIs. It discusses what RESTful APIs are and how they work using HTTP methods like GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE. The document outlines the architectural constraints of RESTful APIs including having a uniform interface, being stateless, cacheable when possible, separating client and server concerns, using a layered system, and code on demand. It also lists advantages of RESTful APIs like enabling automation, more application scope, efficiency, personalization, adaptation and integration. The document further explains JSON, Postman, HTTP status codes, and how to fetch and send data in an API.

    INTRODUCTION
    TO RESTFUL API
    REST stands for REpresentational State
    Transfer and API stands for Application
    Program Interface. REST is a software
    architectural style that defines the set of

    HTTP METHODS
    HTTP METHODS: There are four main HTTP
    methods that you use in REST APIs. Here’s
    what each of them does:
    WHAT ARE THE 1. POST: is used to send data to a server to

    4. DELET: deletes the specified resource.

    ADVANTAGE WHAT ARE THE

    OF RESTFUL
    ADVANTAGE OF THE
    RESTFUL API?

    API
    Automation: with APIs,
    computers rather than Application: because APIs
    people can manage the
    work. Through APIs, 1 2 can access the app
    components, the delivery of
    agencies can update work services and information is

    and more productive.

    New data available:

    make service provision
    more flexible.
    05
    JSON 03

    WHAT IS THE JSON AND HOW


    DOES IT WORK?
    JSON, or JavaScript Object Notation, is a minimal,
    readable format for structuring data. It is used primarily
    to transmit data between a server and web application,
    as an alternative to XML. Squarespace uses JSON to
    store and organize site content created with the CMS.
    The two primary parts that make up JSON are keys and
    values. Together they make a key/value pair.

    • KEY: A key is always a string enclosed in quotation


    marks.

    • VALUE: A value can be a string, number, boolean


    expression, array, or object.
    06
    POSTMAN
    WHAT IS THE POSTMAN?
    POSTMAN
    Postman is an API
    platform for building
    and using APIs.
    Postman simplifies
    each step of the API
    lifecycle and
    streamlines
    collaboration so you
    can create better APIs
    —faster.

    EXAMPLE OF THE POSTMAN
    AND JSON:
    07
    HTTP WHAT ARE THE HTTP STATUS

    STATUS
    CODES?

    CODES
    -HTTP defines these standard status codes that can be
    used to convey the results of a client’s request. The
    status codes are divided into five categories.

    1. 1xx: Informational – Communicates transfer protocol-level


    information.

    2. 2xx: Success – Indicates that the client’s request was accepted


    successfully

    3. 3xx: Redirection – Indicates that the client must take some


    additional action in order to complete their request.

    4. 4xx: Client Error – This category of error status codes points the
    finger at clients.

    5. 5xx: Server Error – The server takes responsibility for these error
    status codes.
    08
    FETCHING
    AND
    HOW TO FETCH DATA
    FROM THE INTERNET?

    SENDING
    DATA IN API
    ADD THE HTTP
    PACKAGE:

    To add the http package, open


    your pubspec.yaml file and add
    the http package under the
    dependencies section. You can
    get the latest version of http
    package
    on pub.dev/packages/http.

    23
    SENDING DATA TO
    API:

    We can add products to the


    API using post method
    from http package in
    addItems() method.

    24
    FETCHING DATA
    FROM API:

    To fetch data from internet


    create a function called
    fetchProducts(). That function
    return Future<List<Post>>.

    25
    DISPLAYING THE
    DATA:

    Then call the fetchPost()


    function in the
    initState().
