API Development
What's the downside of header/content-negotiation versioning (Accept: application/vnd.myapi.v2+json) compared to URL path versioning?
A
It has no downsides at all
B
It's much less visible/discoverable — you can't tell the API version from the URL alone, and it's harder to test casually in a browser
C
It's impossible to implement on any server
D
It requires no version-compatibility discipline
