Data Extraction Form (DEF) for a Systematic Literature Mapping on REST API Design: Principles and Guidelines Adopted for API Design and Implementation

This dataset contains the Data Extraction Form (DEF) produced during a Systematic Mapping Study on REST API Design Guidelines. It includes the extracted data from the selected primary studies, synthesized design guidelines, original terminology used by the authors, thematic classification, examples, and the mapping between REST architectural constraints and the identified guidelines. The dataset supports the reproducibility and transparency of the study.
