REST API Design Standards RelaxGen Uses for Client Projects
Versioning, error formats, pagination and OpenAPI documentation — our API delivery playbook.
Mehran Shafique · May 12, 2026 · 1 min read · 83 words
Consistent APIs reduce integration cost. Every RelaxGen API project ships with versioned routes, uniform error JSON, cursor pagination and Scribe or OpenAPI docs.
Naming and verbs
Resources are plural nouns; actions use sub-resources or PATCH. Avoid RPC-style endpoints except for unavoidable transitions like /orders/{id}/cancel.
Error contract
{ "message": "...", "errors": { "field": ["..."] }, "code": "VALIDATION_FAILED" } — clients parse reliably across endpoints.
Documentation as deliverable
Postman collections, auth examples and rate limit docs included in handover. APIs without docs are unfinished.
