World Congress 2026 Europe

Rest API Antipatterns

July 10, 2026 09:40 – 10:10 · 30 min Stage 7

What this session covers

Every API is a story of two developers, one who creates and one who consumes the API. There are API’s that are very easy and intuitive for both of them. This talk is not about those API’s. This is a talk about those other API’s - where best intentions result with unusable and maintainable messes. We will take a look from both sides to analyze and hopefully avoid those pitfalls that await us.
