Also in this newsletter, OpenAPI Python, GraphQL 17, Portman, and API Governance with OpenAPI - Author: Alexander Karan - Tags: 📰 APIs You Won't Hate (The newsletter) The new [HTTP QUERY](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc10008.html?ref=apisyouwonthate.com) method is here, so stop shoving read-only operations into `POST` because your query strings get messy. With `QUERY` officially being supported in OpenAPI 3.2 and many web frameworks now supporting it either directly or via custom methods, adoption has never been easier. A common misuse today is complex filters and searches being shoved into a `POST`, that works, but it hides the real semantics. `POST` does not tell clients, caches, observability tools, or retry logic that the operation is safe and idempotent. Start using `QUERY` today. \-- Alexander --- ### [OpenAPI Python](https://npmx.dev/package/@hey-api/openapi-python?ref=apisyouwonthate.com) HeyAPI is at it again, delivering more OpenAPI goodness, this time with a Python Code Generator. Their new package converts OpenAPI into production-grade SDKs or Pydantic models. Honestly, at the rate I bring up HeyAPI, I should get myself a t-shirt. ### [Unified API](https://www.unipile.com/?utm%5Fsource=linkedin&utm%5Fcampaign=passionfroot%5Fvictor-baggio) One API for LinkedIn, Instagram, Messaging, Email & Calendar - `sponsored` ### [GraphQL 17](https://graphql.org/blog/2026-06-15-introducing-graphql-js-v17/?ref=apisyouwonthate.com) Being the first major release since October 2021, GraphQL is dropping some goodies in this latest release. First class AbortSignal support, broader schema validation coverage, `GraphQLHarness` for customisation and more. A great release that really expands GraphQL. 🗞️ ****Have something to share?** Classified ads are short, text-only placements available for [$100 per issue](https://workspace.passionfroot.me/apisyouwonthate/packages/5cc9cd89-9bbc-430f-b81a-2536fdbe8429/book?ref=apisyouwonthate.com). ### [OpenAPI Is the Unit of API Governance](https://apievangelist.com/2026/06/25/openapi-is-the-unit-of-governance/?ref=apisyouwonthate.com) A great post by Kin Lane about how your OpenAPI is the Unit of Governance and how this is increasingly important with AI. Humans can push through bad descriptions; LLMs will take it at face value. > The `info.description`, the operation `summary` and `description`, the parameter descriptions, the schema property descriptions — this is where engineering and product actually negotiate what the API is. ### [FastAPI Now Serves Frontend](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/tutorial/frontend/?ref=apisyouwonthate.com) FastAPI is a web framework for building API's with Python with a focus on performance. Thanks to FastAPI's hard work, you can now serve static frontend apps with support for React with Vite, TanStack Router, Astro, Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid, and any others that produce a static build. ### [HTTP Cookie Parser Faster and Slimmer](https://github.com/jshttp/cookie/releases/tag/v2.0.0?ref=apisyouwonthate.com) Cookie is a Node library for parsing and serialising HTTP Cookies and recently landed a killer release. Cookie is now ESM only and has some nice performance improvements. Being part of [E18E](https://e18e.dev/?ref=apisyouwonthate.com) this really made my heart sing. Feels like so many libraries in the Node/Express ecosystem have been getting upgrades recently. ### [Socket-Activation for a Go HTTP service](https://poweruser.blog/socket-activation-for-a-go-http-service-part-1-on-linux-with-systemd-0e530ed463a3?ref=apisyouwonthate.com) I removed and added this post to the newsletter a few times this week. It's not strictly API-focused, but I found it so interesting that it's worth sharing. Chris walks us through setting up an HTTP service that only spins up and uses its full resources once you hit the endpoint. Might have limited uses, but a great read and learning exercise. --- ## APIs You Won't Hate *The latest from the team at API's You Won't Hate.* ### [Newsletter Feedback ](https://apisyouwonthate.slack.com/archives/C0B76423SQM?ref=apisyouwonthate.com) We have been running the API's Newsletter for a few years now and would love to hear from our readers. What do you want to see more of, less of, and what are we missing? We have set up a Slack channel in our community, so head on over and leave us some feedback. We can't wait to hear from you. --- ## From the Community *Articles written and shared in our free* [*Slack community*](https://slack.apisyouwonthate.com/?ref=apisyouwonthate.com)*.* ### [Portman](https://www.getportman.com/?ref=apisyouwonthate.com) Can't believe I missed this one. One of our community members was looking for API testing tools to ensure a service meets its API contract. Portman was shared as a way to automate contract and variation testing running locally and in your CI/CD. ## Support APIs You Won't Hate When you become an member, you'll get access to members-only content while directly supporting our work.
