Description

An API agreement is a legal agreement typically between a software provider and a client that outlines the terms of use for an application programming interface (API). API's allow software programs to exchange data in an easy and secure way. API agreements are essentially the documentation for an API. They are usually developed by the development team and legal, and define the instructions and terms and conditions around consumers using the API. Included in an API agreement are typically terms about how the API will behave, endpoint urls, actions and arguments of each endpoint, and examples.
