Most Gender APIs are encoded using JSON and are accessible through smartphones and tablets. The user inputs data, usually in options where one can either query one name or multiple names. One can also add other subjects in the query to get more accurate data. Such may include localization, localization by IP or by locale, country of origin, and email address.
The response comes in sections that where are explained, that is, the field and description. For instance, the response of names describes the name presentation, which is mostly in lower case.
The gender response comes as male, female, unisex, or unknown. On the samples, the gender API will display how many records in the database match your search. Accuracy reveals how reliable the database is, and one can only be sure if the value is 100. The field also provides information about the duration. This field tells how much time the server needs to obtain the request.
