Answer
API versioning allows new features without breaking existing clients.
By using versioning in APIs, you can introduce new features and improvements without affecting existing clients. It involves maintaining multiple API versions concurrently. For example, an e-commerce API can add new payment methods in version 2 while keeping version 1 operational for older clients.
