Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) Community

Working to advance the cause of APIs in the federal government

This Community of Practice (CoP) is for anyone who is interested in government APIs and developer outreach, with a focus on the federal government. APIs are as important to digital government as they are are esoteric and sometimes difficult to understand. This forum exists to help federal agencies share news, ask for help, and expand the use of APIs in government.

What we do

  • Share API news.

  • Provide developer feedback for agencies.
  • Help each other better understand APIs, how agencies are using them, and how to work with others at our agency to better understand this topic.
