REST API Best Practices

Resource Design

Noun-based URLs (/users, /documents)
Proper HTTP methods
Consistent naming conventions
HATEOAS where appropriate

Error Handling

Consistent error format
Appropriate status codes
Helpful error messages
Request correlation IDs

Security

Authentication (JWT, OAuth2)
Rate limiting
Input validation
CORS configuration

API Versioning Strategies

URL Versioning: /api/v1/users Header Versioning: Accept: application/vnd.api.v1+json Query Versioning: /api/users?version=1

I help you choose based on your use case and client needs.
