Ringkasan	Multi-source API-based data collection is a systematic technique in which a researcher simultaneously or sequentially queries two or more application programming interfaces (APIs) to harvest digital data for a research project. By drawing from multiple platforms or services — such as social media APIs, government open-data portals, or scientific data repositories — researchers can build richer, more representative datasets than any single source permits. The method is especially prominent in computational social science, digital humanities, public health surveillance, and environmental monitoring.	API-based data collection is a systematic technique in which a researcher sends structured requests to an application programming interface to retrieve data automatically from digital platforms, databases, or services. It is the primary method used in computational social science to gather large-scale social media records, government open data, financial data streams, and scientific repository content in machine-readable formats such as JSON or XML, enabling reproducible and scalable data acquisition that manual collection cannot match.
