Last March we introduced
the Google APIs Explorer, an interactive tool that enables you to try out a Google
API in minutes and explore its supported methods. When we launched it, the APIs Explorer
supported over a half dozen APIs.
Starting today, the APIs Explorer
has a brand new look to make it easier and more fun to navigate. We are also adding
new features, including an indexed history of your API calls, a better editor for the body of
a request, and a search box so you can search for APIs and methods easily.
Moreover, we have been busy adding support for more APIs to the Explorer. The Explorer now
supports over two dozen Google APIs, and the list continues to grow! We have also added an
indicator to show which methods require authenticated requests.
To get started, here are some sample requests you can try in the Explorer:
The APIs Explorer will help you get started using Google APIs in minutes. If you need more
information, visit the documentation. We always
welcome your feedback in the Public Forum.

platforms.
