Course Overview

This comprehensive course from HCL GUVI focuses on helping developers understand why API versioning is essential and how to apply it effectively in real-world REST APIs. You will begin by learning the core principles of API versioning and the problems that arise when APIs evolve without a versioning strategy. The course then walks you through common approaches, such as URI path versioning, query parameter versioning, and header-based versioning, explaining when and why each method is used. With practical examples in Express, you will see how versioning is implemented in real applications. You’ll also get familiar with  real-world scenarios that demonstrate how large systems manage multiple API versions, handle deprecation, and ensure smooth transitions for existing clients.
