MediaWiki has several [[w:API|application programming interfaces]] ('''APIs''').
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
MediaWiki offers the following web APIs:
</div>

* <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">the [[Special:MyLanguage/API:Action API|MediaWiki Action API]] (<code>api.php</code>)</span>
* <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">the [[Special:MyLanguage/API:REST API|MediaWiki REST API]]</span> (<code>rest.php</code>)

<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">The Action API provides a much broader set of functionality, while the REST API (which is newer) has better-structured URLs and runs faster.</span>

<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">MediaWiki also includes the following software APIs:</span>
* <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">the [[wmdoc:mediawiki-core/master/php/|MediaWiki PHP API]], which can be used to develop {{ll|Manual:Extensions|extensions}} for MediaWiki in {{ll|PHP}}</span>
* <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">the [[wmdoc:mediawiki-core/master/js/|MediaWiki JavaScript API]] (''mw''), which can be used to develop {{ll|user scripts|user scripts and gadgets}} to extend the MediaWiki user interface</span>

<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Note that the MediaWiki Action API and the MediaWiki JavaScript API are both modular: both can be extended by extensions, so the available API modules can differ from wiki to wiki.</span><ref>
<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">For extending the Action API, see {{ll|API:Extensions}}.</span>
<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">For information about JavaScript modules, see {{ll|ResourceLoader}}.</span>
</ref>
<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">While the API modules built into {{ll|MediaWiki Core}} are available in most MediaWiki wikis, built-in Action API modules {{ll|API:Restricting API usage|can also be disabled}}.</span>

<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Within the context of the MediaWiki website the Action API can be accessed from JavaScript via the [[wmdoc:mediawiki-core/master/js/mw.Api.html|mw.Api]] JavaScript API.</span>
<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">([[wmdoc:mediawiki-core/master/js/mw.ForeignApi.html|mw.ForeignApi]] for allowed cross-site requests, e.g. between WMF wikis.)</span>
<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">For libraries to access the MediaWiki Action API from your favorite programming language, see {{ll|API:Client code}}.</span>
