Designing a really clean and intuitive REST + JSON API is no small feat. You have to worry about resources, collections of resources, pagination, query parameters, references to other resources, which HTTP Methods to use, HTTP Caching, security, and more! And you have to make sure it lasts and doesn't break clients as you add features over time. Further, while there are many references on creating REST APIs with XML, there are many fewer references for REST + JSON.

Designing and building RESTful APIs isn’t easy. On its surface, it may seem simple – after all, we’re only marshaling JSON back and forth over HTTP right? However, that’s only a small part of the equation. There are many things to keep in mind while building the systems that act as the key to your system.
In this session, we’ll delve into several best practices to keep in mind when designing your RESTful API. We’ll discuss authentication, versioning, controller/model design, and testability. We’ll also explore the do’s and don’t’s of RESTful API management so that you make sure your APIs are simple, consistent, and easy-to-use. Finally, we’ll discuss the importance of documentation and change management. The session will show examples using ASP.NET Web API and C#. However, this session will benefit anyone who is or might be working on a RESTful API.

Prairie DevCon 2015 - Crafting Evolvable API Responsesdarrelmiller71
Web frameworks help you build an API quickly but most have little support for dealing with an API that needs to evolve, forcing you to prematurely version your API. But many industry professionals are telling us not to version. How can we avoid it? Take back control of the content you send over the wire. API responses are the "user interface" of your API and should be crafted with same attention to detail that cause designers to fret over color choices, shadows and highlights. In this talk I’ll show techniques that can be used to build responses that are easier to evolve and highlight the types of practices that encourage breaking changes and force you to version your API.
A tutorial about CodeIgniter. It's purpose is to help someone with no prior knowledge of frameworks, to understand it's basic principles and how it works.
Publishing strategies for API documentationTom Johnson
Most of the common tools for publishing help material fall short when it comes to API documentation. Much API documentation (such as for Java, C++, or .NET APIs) is generated from comments in the source code. Their outputs don’t usually integrate with other help material, such as programming tutorials or scenario-based code samples.
REST APIs are a breed of their own, with almost no standard tools for generating documentation from the source. The variety of outputs for REST APIs are as diverse as the APIs themselves, as you can see by browsing the 11,000+ web APIs on programmableweb.com.
As a technical writer, what publishing strategies do you use for API documentation? Do you leave the reference material separate from the tutorials and code samples? Do you convert everything to DITA and merge it into a single output? Do you build your own help system from scratch that imports your REST API information?
There’s not a one-size-fits-all approach. In this presentation, you’ll learn a variety of publishing strategies for different kinds of APIs, with examples of what works well for developer audiences. No matter what kind of API you’re working with, you’ll benefit from this survey of the API doc publishing scene.

Presentation for Autumn QC meetup 2018 (UA, Ivano-Frankivsk) about testing REST Api with demo example how to develop tests. Project here - https://github.com/Antracot/TestInRest
This is a session given by Asbjørn Ulsberg at Nordic APIs 2016 Platform Summit on October 25th, in Stockholm Sweden.
Description:
This talk is for developers dabbling in REST, but who aren’t yet invited to Roy Fielding’s thanksgiving dinner. It will go through the history of REST and how it relates to SOAP and RPC-style APIs before delving down into the concepts of hypertext and hypermedia, how to implement them in your API and last, but not least; Why!
If you’ve started exploring the world of REST and miss the comfort of safe typing and service discovery of SOAP and WSDL, this talk is for you. You will learn why this is missing in the world of REST, what alternatives exist and how your API can embrace them and become much more self-descriptive and user friendly than RPC-style APIs could ever dream of!
Writing documentation for truly RESTful APIs is often done by Swagger or similar tools. However, they provide no support for documenting hypermedia elements, they are URI-centric, leaky and intrusive.
Wouldn't it be nice if your documentation could fail your build in case it gets out-of-date with your production code? Wouldn't you want to write your documentation using a format which is designed for writing? Can't there be a tool which documents your code without using the actual implementation?
Meet Spring REST Docs.
REST Docs allows you to write your documentation as part of your integration tests. In case your documentation doesn't match with your integration test result, your test will fail. This ensures accurate documentation while avoiding the need to put annotations on your production code. It uses the same integration tests to generate snippets, both for request and response bodies, and for hypermedia links. As a writing format it uses asciidoc which is designed for writing.
A REST API involves more than just pushing data back and forth between endpoints. REST is a set of principles and not a specification, so as such you have freedom in how to develop your API. This freedom can lead to confusion though, as it’s hard to find concrete examples of its implementation. This presentation will explain what REST is and also present a variety of topics and questions you will certainly come across while implementing your API.
Due to the popular of Smart Phone application recently, Single Page Application (SPA) model has been the trend for Web application development and is taking place of the traditional MVC model. Web API is the key factor of the shift from SPA model to MVC model. For that reason, test automation is expected to shift left to get feedback as soon as possible, and Web API testing has become more and more important. The talk will discuss:
- What is Web API? How SOAP is different from REST APIs
API test and its checkpoints
- How Frisby makes testing REST API endpoints easy, fast, and fun in the world of Node.js
Les Hazlewood, Stormpath co-founder and CTO and the Apache Shiro PMC Chair demonstrates how to design a beautiful REST + JSON API. Includes the principles of RESTful design, how REST differs from XML, tips for increasing adoption of your API, and security concerns.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

41. HREF
• Distributed Hypermedia is paramount!
• Every accessible Resource has a unique
URL.
• Replaces IDs (IDs exist, but are opaque).

Only if you really, really know what you‟re doing
Use API Keys instead of Username/Passwords
69. 401 vs 403
• 401 “Unauthorized” really means
Unauthenticated
“You need valid credentials for me to respond to
this request”
• 403 “Forbidden” really means Unauthorized
“I understood your credentials, but so sorry, you‟re
not allowed!”
70. HTTP Authentication Schemes
• Server response to issue challenge:
WWW-Authenticate: <scheme name>
realm=“Application Name”
• Client request to submit credentials:
Authorization: <scheme name> <data>
