# Git LFS API
|
|
|
|
The Git LFS client uses an HTTPS server to coordinate fetching and storing
|
|
large binary objects separately from a Git server. The basic process the client
|
|
goes through looks like this:
|
|
|
|
1. [Discover the LFS Server to use](./server-discovery.md).
|
|
2. [Apply Authentication](./authentication.md).
|
|
3. Make the request. See the Batch and File Locking API sections.
|
|
|
|
