REST based API

Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) and Representational State Transfer (REST) are two answers to the same question: how to access Web services. The choice initially may seem easy, but at times it can be surprisingly difficult. SOAP is a standards-based Web services access protocol that has been around for a while and enjoys all of the benefits of long-term use. Originally developed by Microsoft, SOAP really isn't as simple as the acronym would suggest. The Difference between SOAP vs REST APIs REST is the newcomer to the block. It seeks to fix the problems with SOAP and provide a truly simple method of accessing Web services.
