Welcome back to another #90secondFIX.

In this episode, Chris talks about sharing or distributing your specifications. These might be FIX APIs or proprietary protocols.

API documentation is a hugely overlooked and very unloved area of our business. It's too easy for people to say "my spec doesn't change that often, so there's no point spending time on it" or "customers demand a PDF, so I'll just copy some template and that's enough".

The simple fact is that while you cling to your Word document, you -- and your customers -- will forever be re-entering the same information again and again.

Every new customer needs to re-input your messages and tags to code against your API.

So instead of asking how often your API changes, ask yourself how frequently customers code to it?
