Integrating digital resources and capabilities into other systems using HTTP APIs is commonplace in any enterprise. However, the experience, skills, time, and cost required for successful integrations can vary significantly depending on the API. This variability has driven companies to centralize their API efforts and adopt an 'API-as-a-product' approach—making integrations more seamless, efficient, and cost-effective. The API integration experience begins with onboarding but is also shaped by factors such as the availability and quality of SDKs, the ease of use within low-code or no-code platforms, and the initial design of the API itself. By fine-tuning these aspects, organizations can reduce friction, better meet the needs of API consumers, and ensure API resources and capabilities are readily accessible where and when they are needed.
