A synchronous request is an HTTP request that blocks the server until the response is returned. The majority of the services on the web run in this fashion. Nowadays, with the advent of distributed systems and loose coupling, API requests can also be asynchronous. In other words, an asynchronous request returns with information that can be used to fetch the information of a process.
