  title: Sitecore Personalize REST Connections API
  description: The Sitecore Personalize REST API allows developers to programmatically interact with Sitecore Personalize experiments, decisioning flows, connection configurations, and template assets. It supports retrieving, creating, updating, and deleting personalization resources through standard HTTP methods. Developers use this API to integrate decisioning logic into server-side applications, trigger personalization flows programmatically, manage personalization assets as part of automated deployment pipelines, and connect to external systems via configurable connection objects. The API base URL is environment-specific and is determined by the region of the Sitecore Personalize instance.
