Apigee: Free eBook on Web API Design
- steverb 15y agoThis is great, but if you've ever seen any of the Apigee slide decks on API design you won't see anything new. Also, remember that these are "Best Practices". Which means that sometimes, after a lot of thought, you might need to do something different.
- drostie 15y agoWell I'm glad that they feel competent with web APIs, because their web UIs are a bit confusing. My brain flagged their download links as an ad and skipped it and went straight to the image saying "Download Now" beneath, which required putting in an email address (thanks, Mailinator!) which was originally flagged for spam -- and then the resulting page's PDF download was blocked by the Firefox pop-up blocker. Left me with a sour taste in my mouth for whatever the rest of these folks have to say about web APIs. Granted in some sense it's a communication error and it's thus "the fault of both of us" and I can't be excused for my own stupidity -- but it still felt like a pain.
