API Versioning | .NET 7 Web API - Tutorial 7

*URI versioning:* This is the most common type of API versioning. In URI versioning, the version number is appended to the URI of the API endpoint. For example, the API endpoint for the GetTags method might be /api/v1/tags for version 1 of the API, and /api/v2/tags for version 2 of the API.

*Header versioning:* In header versioning, the version number is passed in the HTTP header. For example, the header might be X-Api-Version: 1 for version 1 of the API, and X-Api-Version: 2 for version 2 of the API.

*Query parameter versioning:* In query parameter versioning, the version number is passed in the query parameter. For example, the query parameter might be api-version=1 for version 1 of the API, and api-version=2 for version 2 of the API.

The best type of API versioning for your application will depend on your specific needs. URI versioning is the most common type of API versioning, but it can be difficult to manage if you have a large number of API endpoints. Header versioning is a good option if you want to keep the URIs of your API endpoints consistent. Query parameter versioning is a good option if you want to make it easy for clients to switch between different versions of your API.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind when choosing an API versioning strategy:

*Backwards compatibility:* API versioning should allow you to make changes to your API without breaking existing clients.
*Scalability:* API versioning should allow you to support multiple versions of your API without impacting performance.
*Documentation:* You should document your API versioning strategy so that clients know how to use it.
