An API Design Review is an essential component of API Governance, involving a collaborative process where various stakeholders, such as designers, developers, architects, and technical writers, evaluate API changes to ensure they are well-designed, compliant with standards, and beneficial to the wider ecosystem. Key aspects reviewed include consistency, clarity, functionality, scalability, backward and forwards compatibility, security, and documentation impact. The review process often utilizes pull requests to streamline collaboration, allowing stakeholders to interact with changes without delving into source code intricacies, thanks to tools like OpenAPI and Bump.sh. These tools automate the detection of meaningful changes and focus on maintaining high-quality APIs by filtering out inconsequential modifications. This approach not only simplifies the review process but also enhances cross-functional collaboration, enabling teams to efficiently manage API documentation and ensure API development aligns with organizational standards and user needs.
