Application Programming Interface:
An application programming interface (API) is a collection of software functions that allow developers to more easily access and use data and services provided by an operating system or other application. In other words, an API is a set of functions and procedures that allow two software systems to interact with each other. The API acts as a bridge between the two systems, simplifying the development process and reducing the need for custom software development. Learn more about APIs here.
Each week, we choose a new topic to discuss in our blog. This week, we want to talk about Age and Gender Detection API.

2- After signing up in Zyla API Hub, you’ll be given your personal API key. Using this one-of-a-kind combination of numbers and letters, you’ll be able to use, connect, and manage APIs!
3- Employ the different API endpoints depending on what you are looking for.
4- Once you meet your needed endpoint, make the API call by pressing the button “run” and see the results on your screen.
