Abstract
A method and system of matching an application program interface (API) code usage with an API specification are provided. A program having an API code usage is received and its features are extracted therefrom. Features from meta data of a plurality of API specifications are extracted. For each API specification of the plurality of API specifications, a match probability with the API code usage is determined. An API specification having a highest probability is determined. The API code usage is matched with the API specification having the highest probability.
