An API collection is further found on Postman. I've written about how to use [APIs in python here.](obsidian://open?vault=Obsidian&file=Coding%20Tips%2FComputers%2FLanguages%2FPython%2FProjects%2FAPI%20Python)

Think of APIs as another kind of protocol but one that just talks between applications instead of ssh-ing through terminal connecting to internet and doing all of the physical connecting stuff.

Download Postman to explore and get started.
