✅ Refit / RestLess API SDK Structure

Hey! How do I structure an SDK for my API? Let's say I have 2 resources: Users and Groups. I could use Refit or RestLess to create an interface which wraps the CRUD operations on both resources. However if I add more resources (which I do have) to the interface it gets messy. Is there a way to structure my API SDK like this?

public interface IMyApi
{
    public IMyUsersApi Users { get; }
    public IMyGroupsApi Groups { get; }
}

public interface IMyApi
{
    public IMyUsersApi Users { get; }
    public IMyGroupsApi Groups { get; }
}

Where IMyUsersApi and IMyGroupsApi would contain all CRUD operations for their resource.

What's your problem? Can't you do just that -- have one class which contains a Refit interface for users, and one for groups?

Can you? I haven't seen documention about it. I've seen others having one big interface having all methods for every endpoint inside it

You can just create a class? No need to get Refit involved there

public class MyApi : IMyApi
{
    public IMyUsersApi Users { get; } = RestClient.For<IMyUsersApi>();
    ...
}

public class MyApi : IMyApi
{
    public IMyUsersApi Users { get; } = RestClient.For<IMyUsersApi>();
    ...
}

(or whatever the refit syntax is)
