API Modeling and Design with Hypermedia and Contextual Information

This presentation explores adding contextual and actionable information to APIs through Hypermedia types including JSON-LD, HAL, and Collection+JSON specifications. These standards enable richer API responses with embedded context and navigation capabilities.

The core focus is on how hypermedia approaches can make APIs more self-descriptive and navigable, allowing clients to discover available actions and related resources dynamically rather than relying on out-of-band documentation.

If you have any questions on anything API—be it development, management, design, or security, don’t hesitate to reach out.
