With Open Cloud, you can access Roblox resources through standard [REST](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REST) APIs, which lets you build everything from command line automation tools to complex web apps. The Open Cloud APIs support HTTPS and use [API keys](./auth/api-keys.md) or [OAuth 2.0](./auth/oauth2-overview.md) for authentication. You can update experiences, restart servers, work with your data stores and memory stores, manage user restrictions, list inventory items, and much, much more.

Legacy API endpoints with cookie authentication can incorporate breaking changes without notice and have minimal stability guarantees. We don't recommend them for production applications. The legacy API has been known by various names over the years, including the Roblox site API, the web API, and the classic API.

- Open Cloud v2 APIs use certain resource-oriented design patterns. For more information, see [Patterns](./reference/patterns.md).

- Some other Open Cloud APIs share similar resource-oriented patterns, but are not guaranteed to strictly follow all of them.
