## What is an API?

API stands for Application Programming Interface. With the use of an API a connection between two applications can be established, so that they can 'talk to each other'. In other words, an API is a messenger that delivers your request to the provider that you’re requesting it from and then delivers the re~~s~~ponse back to you. APIs are an accessible way to extract and share data within and across organizations. 

## What can I do with an API?

A common reason to use an API within Let's Get Digital is to connect your Let's Get Digital Admin Panel with registration software (for which there is not yet an [existing integration](https://knowledge-base.letsgetdigital.com/the-admin-panel/settings/untitled) within LGD). This way user data can be synched with Let's Get Digital, without the necessity for you to import any data manually. 

## How do I build an API with Let's Get Digital? 

**Please have a look at our** [**API documentation**](https://docs.letsgetdigital.com/)**.** Here you should find all information that you would need to build an API with Let's Get Digital. If this looks unfamiliar and strange to you, please pass this info on to your tech or development department! They will know what to do!
