Content Negotiation
HTTP Content Negotiation
A mechanism where the client and server agree on the best representation of a resource using Accept headers.
기술 세부사항
Content Negotiation APIs use HTTP methods as verbs: GET (read), POST (create), PUT (replace), PATCH (partial update), DELETE (remove). Resources are identified by URIs and represented in JSON. RESTful design requires statelessness — each request contains all information needed for processing. HATEOAS (Hypermedia as the Engine of Application State) is the often-ignored constraint where responses include links to related actions, enabling API self-discovery.
