During my study on web apli. I learnt that it enables you to create web services that would use HTTP protocol. My question is web api could it be a called the replacement for soap web services. what is the comparative advantage of using webapi over soap services

Jump to PostSOAP is one of the types of api's that are available. Asking if a web api is better than SOAP is just like asking if a database is better than MySQL, which obviously would not make any sense since MySQL is just a type of database.
What I can suggest …
Jump to PostThe other way around. A REST api is an example of a web api. I guess any api that is available over the internet could be called a "web api". Like SOAP api is another example of an api that can be used over the internet.
