Too Long; Didn't Read

A Web Service is a type of API that communicates over the internet. When apps communicate with each other, there is an exchange of request and response. API is a way for apps to grant permission with the use of tokens. Some APIs have a limit on how many requests you can make within a certain period e.g. (1000 requests per day) Some API endpoints have a reference page about getting started, and methods and methods started. The words are not done to confuse people, but rather to quickly and effectively communicate ideas and solutions, you can combine them to form meaningful sentences.
