API Stands  for Application Program Interface. Oracle has Provided API in the form of PL/SQL Packages. To Work on a perticular API one need to know the API functionality and the techical requirement. For Beginners Looking into the TRM for that API is a must.

Look for Metalink for more deails.

Hi

API - Application Program Interface

It is an inbuilt PL/SQL coding which explains the particular functionality which interfaces legacy to Apps.

We use it by running the concurrent program; executable as one of the concerned API.

API are application program interface. API are provided by Oracle in PLSQL code. Whenever you want to either load or update data in base tables like PO_HEADERS_ALL or FND_PROFILE_OPTIONS bulk records then it is suggested to use Oracle provided APIs.

Oracle API are in two forms one is PUBLIC which can be used in custom code. Other is PRIVATE which is not supposed to be used in any of the custom code.
