Hello Beta api.gov.au

[njames]

Is the intent to document all api's across the government?

[colugo]

Hi @njames that was the initial intention of api.gov.au many years ago, but priorities and interests have shifted since.

api.gov.au is now just the publishing point for the National API design standards, which was a collaborative effort between all states and territories along with the Commonwealth - but work on the standards also stopped some years ago.

So are we to assume there is no national API standard, nor any directory? Or has it just moved elsewhere?

[colugo]

@doctor-eval The standard is fine for what it is, but hasn't been updated in some time. I am aware of it being used in a variety of agencies, but it's certainly not universally adopted.

There's no directory of APIs any more. At its height it only contained around 20, but it's been removed.

Some private companies that have adopted it too or at lest use it as a base (the standard that is)
