API Info

API stands for Application Programming Interface, which refers to the interface that allows software applications to interact with other software components or services.

APIs act as intermediaries that facilitate interaction between programs.

Through APIs, developers or systems can call services provided by others and exchange data. Additionally, APIs help reduce the complexity of writing code required to interact with other software components, enabling faster and more efficient software development.

Generally, APIs of blockchain platforms provide the functionality to query block or transaction information, confirm balances, and monitor the state of the blockchain, enabling the development of various blockchain-based applications.
