關於符合 REST 樣式的 API

REST 是一種軟體架構，可提供簡便且一致的資料要求及修改方法。
REST 這個詞是「Representational State Transfer (表現層狀態轉換)」的簡稱。在 Google API 中，這是指使用 HTTP 動詞來擷取及修改 Google 所儲存資料的表示法。
在符合 REST 樣式的系統中，資源會儲存在資料儲存庫中。用戶端向伺服器發出執行特定動作 (例如建立、擷取、更新或刪除資源) 的要求後，伺服器就會執行指定動作並傳回回應 (大多採用指定資源表示法的形式)。
在具備 REST 特性的各種 Google API 中，用戶端會使用 POST、GET、PUT 或 DELETE 等 HTTP 動詞來指定動作。接著，該動詞會透過全域唯一的 URI 來指定資源，格式如下：
https://www.googleapis.com/apiName/apiVersion/resourcePath?parameters
由於所有 API 資源都有可供 HTTP 存取的專屬 URI，因此 REST 不僅能夠支援資料快取，也非常適合與網路的分散式基礎架構搭配運作。
您可以在 HTTP 1.1 標準說明文件中找到實用的方法定義；包括 GET、POST、PUT 和 DELETE 的規格。

It specifies a resource by a globally-unique URI of the following form: \n\n```\nhttps://www.googleapis.com/apiName/apiVersion/resourcePath?parameters\n```\n\nBecause all API resources have unique HTTP-accessible URIs, REST enables data caching and is optimized to work with the web's distributed infrastructure.\n\nYou may find the [method definitions](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-4.3) in the HTTP 1.1 standards documentation useful; they include specifications for `GET`, `POST`, `PUT`, and `DELETE`."]]
