Description: Web API versioning is the practice of managing changes to an API over time while maintaining backward compatibility. This means that as new features are introduced or modifications are made to the API, developers must ensure that existing applications relying on previous versions of the API continue to function smoothly. Versioning allows developers to implement improvements and bug fixes without disrupting service to users utilizing older versions. There are several strategies for versioning APIs, such as including the version number in the URL, in HTTP headers, or in query parameters. This practice is essential in modern software development, where APIs are fundamental for communication between different systems and applications. Proper management of API versioning not only enhances the developer experience but also facilitates user adoption of new functionalities while minimizing the risks of breaking existing functionality.
