API response

An API response is the information that a program or application receives back after making a request to another service or system. Imagine asking a librarian for a book—when you make the request, the librarian searches their system and gives you the book (the response). Similarly, in the digital world, when one program asks another for data (like weather information or user data), the API response contains that requested data, formatted in a way the requesting program can understand and use effectively. This process enables different software to communicate and function together seamlessly.
