How do I create an API for integration

There are several methods to integrate with an API.

Methods: In the context of web development and RESTful APIs, the terms "GET," "POST," and "DELETE" refer to HTTP methods used for different operations:

  • POST
  • GET
  • DELETE
  • UPDATE

POST METHOD Creation:

We will create a folder named contact within the server file, and inside the contact folder, we will create a file named index.post.ts.

For example:

orbitype

We will create a contacts table and subsequently insert data into it using the INSERT method.

orbitype

/contact is the API we will utilize for naming in our project. Like the below snap.

orbitype

GET METHOD Creation:

We will create a folder named pages within the server file, and inside the pages folder, we will create a file named index.post.ts

orbitype

The same scenario is followed in the GET request.
