Ask HN: What API's do you like to work with?
I've been working with the Facebook API and the Dropbox API and I'd say I like working with Facebook's better simply because the documentation for the Dropbox API is somewhat lacking.
Interested to see what other API's people are working with and why they like them
- hkon 16y agoI like the WPF API
- Travis 16y agoSendGrid has a great API. Dropbox's API is pretty straightforward to me.
- dglassan 16y agoI spent a while trying to figure out why the PHP getFile method wouldn't work with files that had spaces in them. I finally figured out that the filename has to be rawurlencoded which the API wasn't doing.
- Travis 16y agoThat's rather annoying, that it didn't do it, but it apparently wasn't well documented that it had this behavior. My only dropbox interaction was simple enough that I just used the DropboxUploader PHP script, so I didn't worry about most of that stuff (only using it for internal company stuff, so errors aren't critical).
