API Documentation
This is a lightweight web service, (REST interface), which provides an easy way to access the YTS website.
An API (Application programming interface) is a protocol intended to be used as an interface by software components to communicate with each other.
Our API supports many methods, so there should not be a problem coding some nice applications.
