#2It's not a REST API if it does not enforce a Hypermedia format. Plain JSON has never and will never be a REST API.
It's called an Ad-Hoc API with your own made up rules.

#3I wouldn't necessarily call it a REST api but it's definitely useful for some quick testing. I've got a few notes:
- Could you clarify the difference between update and refresh - GET, POST, PUT and DELETE are industry standard terms but it's always good to clarify what these operations will do anyways in the docs. - Need docs - What about multimedia?
I get that it might be an MVP but still worth considering the above. Well done overall and I've bookmarked it!
