I'm trying to learn about web APIs and was wondering if you could help me with a simple one to retrieve information about an online image. &nbsp;An example URL could be<br />

<br />
How could I build a RESTful API which accepts the image url as a parameter and retrieve information about the image must be retrieved responding in JSON format. &nbsp;Is it also possible to create a web client to call the API. &nbsp;It only needs a single page to accept input for the url, a button to call the API, and an area to display the response.<br />

I'm using C# within Visual Studio 2017 community edition.

Sample web API

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).

JavaScript Object Notation, or JSON, is human-readable text used when transmitting data objects consisting of attribute:value pairs between a server and a web application as an alternative to XML. JSON, while it is originally derived from JavaScript, is a language-independent data format. Code for parsing and generating JSON data is available in many programming languages.
