# REST API

Valohai is built on RESTful APIs, enabling programmatic access to all platform functionality. This API-first architecture allows you to automate workflows, build custom integrations, and orchestrate operations beyond the UI. For example, with API calls you can:

* Build custom integrations
* Trigger executions from CI/CD pipelines
* Sync training metadata to internal dashboards
* Programmatically manage your entire ML workflow.
