General description about API and ABC model API

What is an API?

API stands for Application Programming Interface. It allows the functionalities of a web service or software to be called from another web service or software. Examples of APIs include those that fetch weather forecasts, stock information, and map data.

Examples of representative API Services include X API, Google Sheets API, YouTube Data API, and so on.

Diagram of API: An API is often compared to a waiter. It takes requests from the client (customer), retrieves the necessary information from the server (kitchen), and delivers the result back to the client.
