# API Gateway API

API Gateway API in Google Cloud is a managed service that allows you to create, secure, and monitor APIs for your backend services. It provides a centralized entry point for managing traffic, authentication, and access control, while integrating with other GCP services. This helps developers expose and manage APIs efficiently without handling infrastructure or scaling concerns.
