Get APIs Right, the First Time

Using high fidelity API backend prototypes in the design phase was typically very expensive and hard to manage and distribute to users. These problems are now gone. You can now enable users to try high fidelity API backend prototypes in the design phase instead waiting for delivery of the final APU or beta after the high costs of code development

This virtually eliminates delivering APIs with problems such as missing properties, confusing work flows, bad modeling, etc. With users test driving the APIs first, problems in API designs are quickly recognized and fixed in the desing phase therefore avoiding the huge cost of rework or failure. And even worse, if users don't like your API they simply will not use it.

And whats so great is no coding skills are necessary. Subject matter experts can design HTTP APIs in a browser, in minutes to hours, not weeks to months. Designers simply use a GUI and specify paths, resources and properties and then ...click to auto-generate and deploy the API endpoints and database online in the cloud. These APIs are instantly accessible using any HTTP API request tool.

The deployed API backends look and feel like the final API backends because underneath, they are real, scalable API backends that have been converted to structured code and deployed in the cloud. Users can test drive and send full CRUD requests to the API, give feedback and get a true feel of the API. The APIs are protected with API keys.

OpenAPI documents, Postman collections and spreadsheets can be auto-generated for the APIs. Note also, OpenAPI and Postman collections can be imported.

Using RestPoint in your API process is seamless, dramatically lowers risk and guarantees API users get the API they like and will use. When the APIs are signed off by users, send the working prototype and auto-generated documents to the development team and say, "build this!".
