Abstract: The World Wide Web is a rich source of information managed and utilized through a multitude of technologies and protocols. Modern web systems and mobile applications gather data on user activity on the Internet, and the processing of these vast amounts of knowledge finds application in new language models. Sharing information resources across different platforms has its advantages and challenges. The aim of this report is to present an overview analysis of innovations in the use of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for data exchange between various web-based systems. With the rapid evolution of information technologies a diverse ecosystem of APIs can be explored, each with unique capabilities and use cases. As the demand for seamless data integration grows, businesses are increasingly adopting API-first strategies to enable efficient data sharing and interoperability. The study examines architectures, technologies, and types of API management services such as REST, GraphQL, SOAP, and gRPC.
