1. Introduction

The Extrimian API is an application programming interface based on the REST architecture, which allows client-server communication via the HTTP protocol. This means that the API exposes endpoints that can be accessed via HTTP requests, using any client that implements this protocol, such as web browsers, custom REST clients, or even tools such as Swagger.

Difference between REST API and SDK

It is critical to understand the difference between a REST API and an SDK. While a REST API, such as Extrimian’s, focuses on direct communication between client and server via HTTP requests, an SDK provides a suite of tools and libraries that further facilitate software development, allowing developers to integrate with the API without the need to make these requests directly. At Extrimian we can also help you with an SDK.
