During December 2025, Stream28 refactored the API client in the Backbase/backbase-openapi-tools repository to use UriTemplate for constructing request URIs. This Java-based enhancement focused on improving API development and RESTful service integration by abstracting URI construction, which previously relied on direct URI objects. The new approach reduced the risk of incorrect URL encoding and improved handling of edge-case URIs, making the codebase more robust and maintainable. By leveraging UriTemplate, Stream28 established a foundation for future extensibility and simplified endpoint testing, demonstrating a thoughtful approach to evolving the project’s API infrastructure within a short, focused development period.
