Is My API Gold or Blue?Category: Business, Security
Viewers of the photo disagreed over whether the dress pictured was colored black and royal blue, or white and gold (I think it's white & gold), APIs have a similar aspect; their 'color' depends on who is looking at them. APIs have an identity and that identity changes depending on who is looking at it.
This developer will only see the dress at the initial design and establishment of the API contract.
They will also look at the dress size to see if it comes in -XS or infinite XL.
The multi-color aspect of the dress is interesting but they don't see this "feature"; they'll see an API as a potential security breach and will be looking to see if the API is secured with appropriate authentication and authorization.
