Azure Communication Services capabilities are conceptually organized into discrete areas based on their functional area. Most areas have fully open-sourced SDKs programmed against published REST APIs that you can use directly over the Internet. The Calling SDK uses proprietary network interfaces and is closed-source.

In the tables below we summarize these areas and availability of REST APIs and SDK libraries. We note if APIs and SDKs are intended for end-user clients or trusted service environments. APIs such as SMS should not be directly accessed by end-user devices in low trust environments.

Development of Calling and Chat applications can be accelerated by the [Azure Communication Services UI library](./ui-library/ui-library-overview.md). The customizable UI library provides open-source UI components for Web and mobile apps, and a Microsoft Teams theme.

Communication Services APIs are documented alongside other [Azure REST APIs](/rest/api/azure/). This documentation will tell you how to structure your HTTP messages and offers guidance for using [Postman](../tutorials/postman-tutorial.md). REST interface documentation is also published in Swagger format on [GitHub](https://github.com/Azure/azure-rest-api-specs). You can find throttling limits for individual APIs on [service limits page](./service-limits.md).

- You'll be notified at least three years before being required to change code due to a Communication Services interface change. All documented REST APIs and SDK APIs generally enjoy at least three years warning before interfaces are decommissioned.

117
- You'll be notified at least one year before having to update SDK assemblies to the latest minor version. These required updates shouldn't require any code changes because they're in the same major version. Using the latest SDK is especially important for the Calling and Chat libraries that real-time components that often require security and performance updates. We strongly encourage you to keep all your Communication Services SDKs updated.
