TL;DR: Use a catalog integration to inspect REST's six constraints, distinguish resource state from conversation state, and test all four parts of the uniform interface.
TL;DR: Design APIs that collectors can consume reliably. Define pagination, retries, validators, authentication, schema evolution, and recovery as explicit contracts.
TL;DR: Choose an integration by its actual contract, security profile, tooling, and recovery behavior. Separate REST architecture from SOAP messaging and challenge common myths.
TL;DR: Follow a fictional catalog request from documentation to a validated record. Understand endpoints, response fields, authentication, pagination, and failures before scaling.
TL;DR: Build an API extraction workflow that validates records, follows continuation tokens, and reports incomplete runs. Practice with a local fixture before using a live service.
