In this study, the focus is on facilitating the API discovery process for developers and organizations. According to research articles, APIs are discussed in this research as the fundamental areas that are considered significant when developers or organizations explore an API. The areas include usability, documentation, stability, collaborative communities, and the popularity of an API. We created a design and creation research process and listed key aspects of each mentioned area above in a final artifact, where the idea is to allow people to look at the artifact and use it in a possible API exploration. In conclusion, the artifact covers usability, documentation, stability, and collaborative communities. There are leading questions in the artifact to determine whether or not an API is suitable for a given purpose.
