Where should the logic for working with an external API be?

Question

API

Hello. For example, we have a model that stores customer data. There are also functions for interacting with a third-party API:
- obtaining data about clients from the API
- recording data about clients in the API
Actually, the question arose - where is it more correct to implement the functions of working with API in MVC - in a model or a controller?

Answer 1

Ни в первом ни во втором. Это отдельный сервис загрузки данных о пользователях. В MVC его впиховать не стоит. Вызывать его из контроллера - это ок.
