How do you interact with PrestaShop’s web service API?

Answer: To interact with PrestaShop’s web service API, you can follow these steps:

1. Obtain API Credentials: Generate API keys from the PrestaShop back office under the “Webservice” settings.
2. Make HTTP Requests: Use HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) to send requests to the API endpoint (`/api/`).
3. Authentication: Include your API key in the request header or as a query parameter for authentication.
4. Handle Responses: Process the XML or JSON response returned by the API to handle data accordingly.
5. Use Libraries: Optionally, utilize libraries like cURL in PHP or Axios in JavaScript to simplify requests.

Refer to the PrestaShop API documentation for detailed specifications on resource interactions.
