Magento Rest API is magento feature to provide us facility to get and set data in magento from third party applications using Rest API. In Magento Rest API there are many functions to get Products data, Customers Data, Orders Data etc. You can check documentation using the below link:

Magento extensions are third party modules that we install to enhance magento by default functionality like ajax add to cart OR add new feature in magento like reward point etc.

I am currently doing some research, and for context I have an API, and I want my API to connect to other Public APIs.
Now, these Public APIs has the ability to connect to Magento. My question is that, Can I use Magento as some sort of a middle man between my API and the Public APIs I want to connect to?
Like if I made a request from my API to Public API 1, can Magento deliver that request to Public API 1? And get the response from Public API 1 to my API?
Any insights is greatly appreciated.
Absolutely you can. I have written extensions that integrated several APIs. For example, processing orders. Check order for validity, hit the vendor api to check stock, hit my own api to check oversize rules or noship rules etc. Then send into a warehouse API to move the order through a status chain. Totally do-able from at least magento 1.6 through 2+ community and enterprise. You can also do it external to magento and hit the magento api depending on your scenario.
I need help of experts I have two stores, one is on Shopify and another is on Magento 1. I'm facing problem to manage stock reports because I have one inventory but two stores. How can I sync both stores in real-time like when I get an order and I delivered that so automatically product will less in both stores. I have already tried some third-party integration tools, but they don't work realtime can someone help?
You need to develop a third party application to create an private app for inventory webhooks for Shopify and create event/observer on the product update and order create in Magento.
I've recently got in contact with a wholesaler who stocks products matching my site.
They offer an API to process orders, and automatically check their stock - which is appealing to me as it would save me time.
They have provided me PHP code, but the references are to Magentos SOAP API v2.
Is it possible to use Shopify instead of Magento, or am I stuck using Magento for my site?
Thanks for your time
We are trying to make the decision if it is worth proceeding to use the Magento's SOAP APIs for our mobile App or if we should rewrite them as custom REST APIs.
We are using Magento 1.9.2.1 where the support REST APIs is limited, unlike SOAP APIs. To save us time, we would rather use the SOAP APIs but not sure if SOAP is a good for a mobile app in terms of latency compared to REST.
You should create custom module and create your own Rest API there. because none of the Magento's soap and rest API are complete .
how to create phonegap app using magento soap or rest api
Magento APIs are very slow and not supports all activities hence not recommended.
Create your own custom APIs.
Or use some free or commercial Magento Admin solutions and build over them.
I would like to integrate SecurePay payment gateway in Akeeba subscription component in Joomla 2.5
I am familiar with ceating component and modules in Joomla 1.5
Please give some guidance to integrate it.
Thanks.
All payment methods are standard Joomla! plugins, belonging to the akpayment group. Look at the existing plugins to learn how they work. Then - provided with the necessary information about SecurePay's payment handling - you should be able to write your own plugin.
