LoopBack provides a number of built-in models that have REST APIs. Many of them inherit endpoints from the generic PersistedModel REST API.

By default, LoopBack uses /api as the URI root for the application REST API. To change it, set the apiPath variable in the application app.js file.

The built-in models are:

• PersistedModel REST API
• Access token REST API
• ACL REST API
• Application REST API
• Email (See the email connector page)
• Relation REST API
• Role REST API
• User REST API
