How can AI help create APIs for an application?

I've been working on a small app idea lately, and APIs are the part I'm still trying to get my head around. I spent an evening figuring out how two parts of my app could exchange data, but I kept getting stuck on the structure. Can AI actually help create APIs, or is it mainly useful for explaining code? I'd love to hear how other people have used it in real projects.

Definitely, it can help with both. When I was building a basic task tracker, I asked an AI tool to suggest endpoints for creating, updating, and deleting tasks. It gave me a useful starting point and explained what each endpoint was supposed to do. I still had to test everything and adjust the code, but it saved me time. I found it especially helpful for understanding request methods and error responses.

 AI can draft endpoint structures, generate example requests, suggest validation rules, and even help write API documentation. You could take a look at brawe.ai/ to explore tools for development and see whether it fits your workflow. I'd start with a small feature, describe the data your app needs, and ask for a simple API design first. Then review authentication, input validation, and security before using the generated code in a real application.
