We have to deal with URLs every day. URL is an acronym that stands for Uniform Resource Locator.
you can simply call it address. It’s used as a string that denotes the location of a given resource on the Internet: a web page, an image, a mailbox, etc.
What Is a URI?
The URI acronym stands for Uniform Resource Identifier. It’s follow rules same as URL
So, are URLs and URIs the same thing? not really.
a URL is a URI. Beyond the fact that it uses the same URI syntax, it also identifies a resource through an address. URI doesn’t allow you to access any resource on the Web. URI work like an identifier. This identifier is nothing but a URI: a logical identifier for your API.
