API Specification

An API specification formally defines a system's interfaces: endpoints, data models, authentication, error codes, and contracts. It acts as a verifiable agreement between providers and consumers and enables automated documentation, testing, and code generation. Specifications guide design decisions, versioning, security assessments, and streamline integration workflows across the development lifecycle.
