# Best Practices
Petro.ai's API is constantly evolving with new collections and endpoints for users to pull from. With that in mind, we try to keep the information as up-to-date as possible.
# Postman
Debugging API requests in scripts is tedious and error prone. The Postman application reduces this friction by allowing constructing of adhoc requests. Download Postman here
# Known issues
- Data type entwining (DB Normalization): Data type endpoints do not account for normalized data across multiple data types. This is especially relevant to Wells and Well Identifiers.
- Be aware that some data types are missing some HTTP methods—don’t assume availability and use the API documentation.
